Brian Stelter

CNN Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter said something fascinating on his show Sunday. He complained to New York Times media columnist Ben Smith that "I don't know how to show folk that journalists are mostly acting in good faith. Here's how a show allegedly focused on journalism fails to show good faith. Stelter had on a writer from The Atlantic to discuss the coronavirus and never whispered a…

CNN Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter is so robotically repetitive in his anti-Trump speeches that he actually boasted on Sunday that he was repeating word-for-word a 2017 lecture on Trump’s anti-media rhetoric being “poison.” He began by declaring “The American press is stronger than any demagogue, but President Trump’s attacks present real challenges.”

CNN has some very exciting news to tell you about CNN. According to a CNN poll, CNN is the "most trusted news source" on cable TV. Who better to trust than CNN when talking about how great CNN is? In order to boost its prestige, the cable news channel had to conduct its own poll, which of course produced good numbers and a high percentage of “trust” among those surveyed.

Under the less than complimentary web address HoaxTheBook.com, Simon & Schuster is promoting Brian Stelter's "urgent" Fox-hating book Hoax, now scheduled for release in August. The book has shifted to zero in on coronavirus, with the natural assumption that Fox News "misinformation" enhanced sickness and death.

Over the course of 24 hours, CNN personalities have all accused President Trump of racism over the course of three shows for telling CBS News White House correspondent and Chinese-American Weijia Jiang to “ask China” her question about why he sees the battle to contain Coronavirus as a “global competition.” It appears as if the media believed that their Trump Derangement Syndrome has given them…

In kicking off Sunday’s un-Reliable Sources, host and liberal hack Brian Stelter tried to distract from the corrupt FBI officials exposed via the revelations in the General Michael Flynn case by suggesting: “right-wing” coverage of the case was an attempt to “downplay” and “normalize” the massive death toll from the Chinese Coronavirus.

A lawyer for CNN’s parent company Warner Media sent a cease-and-desist letter to the Trump re-election campaign claiming a new advertisement is misusing CNN news coverage in a way that's "false, misleading and deceptive." They didn't want Dr. Sanjay Gupta sounding in any way positive about President Trump. But CNN also thinks Trump should never "punch down" and complain about negative ads.

Journalists bristle when President Trump criticizes them as “fake news,” and they complain that such criticism erodes the public’s faith in the news media as an independent watchdog on the powerful. But Trump’s critiques wouldn’t have nearly as much impact if news organizations refrained from behaving as sloppy partisans, carelessly jumping on one false story after another if they think it will…

On Sunday's Reliable Sources, CNN host Brian Stelter cued up New York magazine reporter Olivia Nuzzi to defend herself for asking Trump if he deserves re-election after he "lost" more Americans than died in the Vietnam War. Nuzzi's boyfriend Ryan Lizza of Politico claimed it's "never been the case" that reporters showboated in the briefing room. Has he never watched Jim Acosta?

A popular video featuring California emergency doctors Dan Erickson and Artin Massihi was taken down by YouTube for “violating YouTube’s terms of service.” Based on their own research, the hour-long conference asked, “Does this make sense? Are we following the science?”

Big Tech platforms have taken it upon themselves to police misinformation, but why are they glorifying the mistakes at the World Health Organization? YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki made a special appearance on Brian Stelter’s Reliable Sources podcast where she explained how YouTube has been fighting misinformation with what Big Tech considers to be more reputable sources. “We also talk about removing…

The recent VA study that showed that hydroxychloroquine failed to show any benefit in treating and may even harm COVID-19 patients has led many in the media to say "told you so." Some, such as CNN's Brian Stelter, have gone even further, who claimed on Wednesday's CNN Newsroom that President Trump and various Fox News personalities' advocacy of it has been dangerous.   

The man who coined the term “Intellectual Dark Web” blasted Big Tech executives for censoring content related to COVID-19 and warned: “Don’t even think about silencing responsible dissent.” Just “[p]ut it out of your mind,” Managing Director of Thiel Capital and host of The Portal Eric Weinstein warned in a tweet thread. “Stop fantasizing about being N Korean.” Weinstein’s remarks came in…
