‘Just Let it Rip’: CNN's Still Trying to Force‑Feed Kamala to Us

CNN tried rebranding former Vice President Kamala Harris about as smoothly as your friend trying to set you up with a girl who’s got a “great personality.” On Friday afternoon’s broadcast of Inside Politics, the commentary bordered on full-on myth-making.

Not a Newsflash: Liberal Media Losing Audience
