Media disrespects US victim of ISIS, as new GOP AZ Rep. uses ‘unconventional' docs for swearing-in.
In case anyone needs one more example to remind us that the media is irredeemable to its core, here it is. As we wrote earlier this week, swearing-in ceremonies have been taking place for members of the House and Senate leading up to the opening of the new Congress.
The reliably slanted lefty rag, The Arizona Republic decided when reporting on new Republican U.S. Rep. Abe Hamadeh (AZ) being sworn in, to include a slur that disrespects a grieving family, stating that he placed his hand on "unconventional documents."
As X user Jeremiah Cota wrote on his post, it's completely unreal that anyone who works in journalism would something approve this:

As if that's not disrespectful enough to any of the newspaper's readers who happen to be Christian, it gets worse.
The "unconventional documents" were, in fact, the family Bible of the loved ones of Kayla Mueller, an Arizona humanitarian worker who was murdered by ISIS in 2015, something the Republic apparently is quick to wave away as unmentionable subject matter.
Hamadeh explained to Fox News Digital exactly why he was moved to request the honor of using the Muellers' bible at his ceremony, Kayla's inspiring, "unwavering belief" in God despite her dire circumstances.
Here's a little more about what Kayla suffered through in her short life:
A humanitarian worker from Arizona, Mueller was abducted by terrorists while leaving a Doctors Without Borders hospital in Aleppo, Syria, in 2013. She was held hostage for 18 months, when she was believed to be repeatedly tortured and raped by ISIS militants, including then-ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
Mueller was killed in February 2015.
