CNN Newsroom

On Tuesday morning, longtime CNN carnival barker and rodomontading fool Jim Acosta announced he’d be leaving the network after 15 years in a litany of roles, most infamously chief White House correspondent during the first Donald Trump presidency in which he molded himself into far-left martyr sacrificing himself at the public altar of politics in the name of journalism. Rejecting an offered…

Twice on Friday, CNN turned to in-house fact-check and Canadian Daniel Dale to spin-spoil for FEMA and lambast President Donald Trump targeting the response of the agency to last fall’s aftermath of Hurricane Helene in western North Carolina and this month’s wildfires in southern California.

In clips that went viral on social media, Congressman Tim Burchett (R-TN) threw down Wednesday morning with CNN’s dead man walking Jim Acosta over January 6 and President Trump’s commutations and pardons for all those charged in the January 6, 2021 riot at the Capitol. Near the end of the squabble, Burchett ripped CNN as being crushed in the ratings by the likes of Cartoon Network and…

As first reported last year by Puck’s Dylan Byers and then confirmed last week in detail by former CNN media reporter Oliver Darcy, CNN pulled the trigger Thursday on massive layoffs — to the tune of roughly 200 people — at the once proud network-turned-Resistance-hive-turned-ratings gadfly. CNN boss Mark Thompson announced the six-percent workforce cut would be accompanied by a massive…

Former conservative reporter-turned-liberal-media apologist Oliver Darcy spent the last few days leaking out news from his former employer about a new direction for the TV side of CNN that, while not radical in changing its liberal ideology, would be radical in personnel movement with Wolf Blitzer poised to host mornings and Jim Acosta possibly being banished to midnight Eastern.

With his favorite President set to return to office on Monday (and the source of a lifetime of memories for him), serial carnival barker and real-life cartoon character Jim Acosta closed his Thursday morning hour of CNN Newsroom by declaring the media “democracy” itself in fawning over President Biden’s farewell address lamenting the lack of trust in the news media.

CNN went all out for its election certification coverage Monday in marking four years since the Capitol riot, but had the wherewithal to have a conservative on-set (or at least most of the time), including CNN conservative commentator Brad Todd for CNN This Morning and CNN Newsroom with Jim Acosta. It was on the latter show that Todd dished it back to Acosta and liberal…

If someone plows their truck into a crowd of people celebrating New Year’s with an ISIS flag and IEDs are found at the scene of the attack, what would you call that? It seems like a simple question, but for the cast of Thursday’s CNN Newsroom, it wasn’t as they shamed the Democratic mayor of New Orleans for calling the attack on her city an act of terrorism.

With the networks having had over a decade to prepare their graphics and obituary packages for former President Jimmy Carter, the Georgian’s death Sunday at 100 years old came as no surprise (despite having been under hospice care for years) and thus the broadcast and cable networks merely had to dust off their files and hit play. In the first 45 minutes since the Carter Center announced his…

Starting with Wednesday’s The Lead and continuing through Saturday night, CNN gave a massive 56 minutes (56:29) to repeated airings and subsequent fawnings over a supposed exclusive trip inside a Damascus, Syria prison by chief international correspondent Clarissa Ward that resulted in what they billed as the discovery and release of someone who insisted he had been stuck inside a…

Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth correctly called the media out on Monday for lying about his past comments about women not serving in combat in order to suggest he looks down upon women serving, belittles their service, or that he even opposes their inclusion in the military. However, CNN Newsroom host Jim Acosta welcomed Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman Jack Reed to…

Isaac Schorr at Mediaite penned an opinion piece titled "CNN Should Apologize for Its Obscene Fearmongering Over Trump Outlawing Gay Marriage."

If a group of conservatives took to social media to dance on the grave of someone who was recently murdered, CNN Newsroom host Jim Acosta would fiercely and unequivocally condemn them, and rightfully so. He certainly would not hype how “an entire discussion” had been raised in the aftermath of their murder, but that is exactly what he did on Friday after United Healthcare CEO Brian…

CNN National Correspondent Lucy Kafanov has a rainbow flag emoji in her Twitter handle and was wearing rainbow gloves on Wednesday, but CNN Newsroom still thought she was an appropriate choice to send to the Supreme Court to cover oral arguments in U.S. v. Skrmetti, the case that seeks to answer whether Tennessee’s ban on so-called “gender-affirming care” violates the…
