Publish date: 2024-05-03

CBS News reporter Charlie D’Agata slammed for making controversial comments and comparing wars of Iraq and Afghanistan with Ukraine. 

Charlie D’Agata, a senior foreign correspondent for CBS News, was criticized after his comparison of war-facing countries led him to say that one of them is more civilized than the other.

During his live reporting from the capital city of Kyiv on Friday, February 25, he mentioned that Ukraine “isn’t a place, with all due respect, like Iraq or Afghanistan that has seen conflict raging for decades.”

But this wasn’t enough until he added, “This is a relatively civilized, relatively European — I have to choose those words carefully, too — city, where you wouldn’t expect that or hope that it’s going to happen.”

Hence, his baseless comparison in an ongoing program made him face such a backlash.

However, eventually, the reporter apologized for his statements saying that he was sorry and should have never compared conflicts. He also apologized for his poor choice of words.
