CBS ‘News’ got absolutely destroyed online after using a very poor choice of words to describe the worst riots in the history of France.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the Islamo-Marxist riots in France have completely exploded after weeks of mayhem and are threatening President Emmanuel Macron’s home.
Thousands of violent protesters on Saturday overturned cars, set buildings ablaze, and attacked police across the country. One of the most historic structures in the entire country, the 143-year-old Limoges town hall, has now burned to the ground as the police continued to sit on their hands.
Rioters were also on the verge of reaching Macron’s palace. Just imagine the horror if it were set on fire as well.
CBS, however, considered the torching of an entire country by Muslims and communists a mere “scuffle.”
Yes, the outlet really tweeted that word.
While CBS later deleted the tweet, it came far too late. X users were livid over the choice of words.
Many compared the post to CNN’s infamous “fiery but mostly peaceful protests” chyron during the 2020 Black Lives Matter riots.
“SCUFFLES” That’s the word CBS News chose.
Rioters fired mortars at police in Marseille and torched cars in Paris, and hundreds were arrested. CBS called it “scuffles” with “small groups of protesters.”
They aren’t reporting the news.
They’re managing how you feel about it.

Employing the words “scuffles” and “small groups of protesters” = next-level fake news gaslighting.

CBS calling the mass destruction of France at historic levels “Scuffles.” You don’t hate CBS News enough.

Really @CBSNews ? SCUFFLES? Wow. Nothing says we want more textbooks than “scuffles”. Get your head out of your back end. This has everything to do with the coming elections (in France) and is all done by a red green alliance. Gee, do you think CBS that “SCUFFLES” might be in our future?

CBS calls what’s happening in Paris “Scuffles.”
The reality is foreign invaders are burning down Paris.
If your news outlet isn’t covering it with those details, you’re not dealing with actual journalists.

These are NOT “scuffles”. It’s a civil war of Leftists & Muslims torching France’s priceless historical monuments & people!
CBS is trash media.— Linda Barrett (@HonoraBarrett) October 17, 2026
