Washington Post publishes al-Baghdadi headline referring to ISIS leader as ‘austere religious scholar’
The Washington Post published a gasp-inducing headline for the ages Sunday, describing ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as an "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 Saturday night. It details 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.”
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.”

A scholar is a person who devotes themselves to scholarly pursuits, particularly to the study of an area in which they have developed expertise. A scholar may also be an academic, a person who works as a teacher or researcher at a university or other higher education institution. An academic usually holds an advanced degree.
