A prominent New York journalist has been slammed as a 'a vile human being without a shred of decency,' after she took to to take a shot at Fox by sarcastically mourning the death of cameraman Pierre Zakrzewski, who was killed Monday while covering the invasion of Ukraine for the network.
'What a tragedy,' and New Yorker staff writer Susan Glasser wrote Tuesday, moments after reports surfaced of the 55-year-old lensman's tragic death in a Russian air strike in Horenka, outside .
But the founder of Politico and wife of New York Times' chief correspondent Peter Baker went on to put forth a very different take on the 55-year-old cameraman's death, using it to rip the network's controversial talking head, Tucker Carlson.
'A cameraman died covering the war for a TV network that airs a pro-Putin propagandist as its top-rated primetime host,' Glasser, 53, sarcastically tweeted.  
Speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com Tuesday afternoon, a Fox insider slammed Glasser for her comments regarding the tragedy. 
'She's a vile human being without a shred of decency, and a colossal embarrassment to the New Yorker and CNN on a tragic day,' the source said of Glasser's post, which a swarm of others on social media similarly deemed inappropriate and ill-timed.

'Tweets like this are why people hate the media,' commented Curtis Houck, managing editor of conservative news outlet Newsbusters, in reply to Glasser's not-so-heartfelt tribute. 
'Because too many in the media hate those not in their own elite circles,' Houck chided. 'Hard to push back when you say things like this that are truly cancerous.'
The journalist then lambasted the progressive commentator further, asking if she had penned the ill-conceived tribute at one of the posh properties she and her husband own in Washington, DC, or Massachusetts' Martha's Vineyard.
'Did you tweet that from your nice digs in D.C.

or Martha's Vineyard?' Houck asked, before offering one last paring insult to the progressive columnist.
'You're terrible.' 
Glasser's comments came in regard to the death of Fox war zone photographer Pierre Zakrzewski (pictured here with correspondent Steve Harrington and two senior field producers), who was killed Monday while covering the invasion of Ukraine for the network
Former US rep for Illinois and 2020 presidential candidate Joe Walsh also weighed in on the controversy, remarking that there was a 'time and place' for Glasser's anti-Fox comments.  
'The death of a wartime cameraman is not the time and place for this tweet,' the politician declared.
Another user suggested Glasser think more carefully about who her world will affect before tweeting to her more than 220,000 followers.  
'Maybe you can show a bit more humility, Fox has issues, but this was someone's life who was lost and their loved ones are grieving.

We can be better then [sic] that.'
Another added: 'There is never a time nor a place to celebrate the death of a worker just doing his job... no matter how much you dislike his employer. 
'This was a reprehensible tweet by Susan,' the user wrote.



Tucker Carlson, the host of Fox's nightly political prime time program Tucker Carlson Tonight since 2016, has not yet commented on Glasser's remarks, despite being the object of Glasser's criticism in the contentious tweet 
A more poetically inclined poster replying to Glasser's tweet wondered aloud if nothing is off-limits in networks' continued online and on-air conflicts.
'Have we no sense of common decency, remaining?

Is nothing sacred?' the poster wrote. 'Can we no longer mourn and let loss teach us that our lives are like blades of glass?'
The wordsmith then advised Glasser and other onlookers to 'Let the "therefores" come in the quiet so that we can strive to be better people.' 
'Time and place,' another user similarly added.
