Tapper Spends Hour Implying Kimmel Is the REAL Victim of Kirk Murder
On Sunday’s The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper, CNN host Jake Tapper spent an hour mourning the six-day suspension of ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel — a personal friend Tapper didn’t disclose — as dangerous for free speech.

Column: ABC Has Enough of Jimmy Kimmel's 'Comedy'

CNN’s Tapper, Stelter Defend, Mourn Jimmy Kimmel After ABC Suspension
CNN’s The Lead happened to be on-air as word came that ABC had suspended liberal late-night host Jimmy Kimmel indefinitely following conspiratorial and vile remarks Monday mocking President Trump and conservatives for mourning last week’s assassination of Charlie Kirk.

Tapper Scoffs at the Fact Media Gives Trump Over 90% Negative Coverage
During Monday’s edition of The Lead, CNN host Jake Tapper took issue with a post President Trump made on Truth Social where he called out ABC and NBC for running “97% bad stories” about him.

Jake Tapper: I'm Not Blaming Trump For Five Dead Ukrainians, But...
On Sunday's edition of CNN's State of the Union, host Jake Tapper three times mentioned that Russian attacks killed five Ukrainians after President Trump's meeting with Putin ended without a ceasefire.
