Sky News refuses to apologise for scandalous ‘Jihadi Jez’ slur
SKY NEWS bosses refused to apologise last night for referring to Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn as “Jihadi Jez” despite thousands of complaints.
The term was used in an article published by Sky News on Friday about the death of Mohammed Emwazi, labelled Jihadi John in the media, in a US air strike.
Mr Corbyn said it would have been better if the British terrorist had been held to account for his “callous and brutal crimes” in a court of law.
