8:28Now PlayingThe Washington Post published a gasp-inducing headline for the ages Sunday, describing ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as an "austere religious scholar."
The story first appeared to run under a headline that referred to al-Baghdadi as the "Islamic State's 'terrorist-in-chief.'" It was unclear why or who decided to change the "terrorist" label to "austere religious scholar."
The obituary, written by The Post’s National Security reporter Joby Warrick, followed confirmation of al-Baghdadi's death in a U.S. military operation in Syria on Saturday night. It detailed al-Baghdadi’s rise to the terrorist group's shadow leader from what the paper described as his origins as a "religious scholar with wireframe glasses."
