Column: CNN's Lemon of a Town Hall Meeting
CNN became apoplectic whenever Donald Trump called them “fake news,” but on July 21, they offered President Biden a nationally televised boost that can accurately be described as a “fake town hall.” The audience was "invitation only," the questions were pre-screened. Nothing interesting would happen.
EYE ROLL: CNN’s Biden Town Hall Went Exactly the Way You Expected
On Wednesday night, President Biden was granted the second town hall of his presidency (and third in the last year) by his adoring fanboys and girls at CNN and, not surprisingly, the Jeffrey Zucker-led network made sure that the 80-minute event was little more than a foot-massage (or smelling of the hair since that suits his fancy).
CNN's Jennings Warns Against 'Dangerous' White House Censorship
The Biden administration has faced criticism for working with Facebook to flag what they deem “misinformation” and the President’s declaration that “Facebook is killing people.” Unsurprisingly, the liberal media justifies the efforts while ignoring the First Amendment issues. On CNN’s Erin Burnett OutFront Monday night, fill-in host Kate Bolduan tried to excuse the severity of Biden’s remarks…
CNN's Avlon Fervently Fights Defense Lawyer for Capitol Riot Defendant
In a heated interview today on CNN, Joseph D. McBride, the lawyer for Capitol breach defendant Richard 'Bigo' Barnett—famously seen with his feet on a desk on Nancy Pelosi's office—condemned the conditions of detention for the defendants, labeling them "D.C. Guantanamo Bay," and repeatedly accused the authorities of "torture."
It’s Completely Embarrassing How Much the Media Adore TX Dems
Remember when the media joined Democrats in condemning the filibuster as an outdated practice that only gummed up the legislative process? Evidently journalists don’t, because when Democratic state legislators from Texas fled their state last Monday to sabotage the passage of a bill they didn’t like, they became the national news media’s heroes of the week.
CNN Says CNN+ Will Not Be Liberal, 'We're Not an Opinion Network'
CNN announced with great fanfare they're creating a "CNN Plus" streaming subscription service, but an executive bizarrely claimed “No, it’s not going to be ideological....We’re just not in that game. We’re not an opinion network, we’re a news network."
Author Takes Down Brian Stelter: 'You're Full of Sanctimony'
Four years ago, author Michael Wolff came on Brian Stelter's Reliable Sources show and told him off. On Sunday, Stelter brought it back up: "You called me ridiculous." Stelter implied Wolff gained access to the Trump White House by bashing CNN. So Wolff unloaded on him again: "you are full of sanctimony....you are why one of the reasons people can't stand the media."
Dana Trash: CNN Asks Surgeon General If Fox News Is 'Killing People'
CNN State of the Union host Dana Bash lived up to her last name on Sunday morning, bashing Fox News (and Newsmax) as a lethal threat. Playing off President Biden's rant that Facebook is "killing people" with COVID misinformation, Bash asked Surgeon General Vivek Murthy if "conservative media like Fox News" are killing people. "Trash first," not facts first.
CNN's Cuomo Tries to Prove Illegals Commit Less Crime -- It Backfires
On his Thursday night show, CNN host Chris Cuomo attacked Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) as a "misinformation spreader" that's "fearmongering about the border....I just don't see any other way to say it other than the Party of Trump is banking on BS. Republican leadership doesn't care about the threat of toxic talk." But it's Cuomo's argument that flounders on the facts.
TV News Is the Titanic: Americans Abandon Sinking Ship of Poison Press
This isn’t rocket science — unless you are in the liberal news media. Two polls in a row, one from Reuters and one from Gallup, are confirming that millions of Americans (and others!) have little to zero trust in the mainstream American news media. Fox News explains: "Only 16 percent of respondents said they had a lot of confidence in television news."
Accusing DeSantis of Disinformation, Cuomo Guilty Of His Own
During a Friday segment of Cuomo Prime Time on vaccine hesitancy and disinformation, namesake host Chris Cuomo spread some disinformation of his own by insinuating Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is encouraging people not to get vaccinated against COVID-19.
Avlon Slams Justice Breyer's Rationale For Not Resigning as 'Reckless'
CNN's resident "reality checker" John Avlon joined CNN Newsroom on Wednesday to say that whether or not liberal Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer retires is a choice for him to make, but that he is still being reckless for not considering politics in that decision.
Toobin Rants Against Justice Breyer Refusing to Cave to Liberals
On Thursday's New Day show, CNN again catered to concerns by liberals who are worried that President Joe Biden will miss the chance to appoint a liberal to replace Stephen Breyer unless the Supreme Court justice retires in an hurry. Chief legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin even went into a rant against Justice Breyer for refusing to retire at age 82.
CNN Praises Texas Dem Lawmaker for 'Sacrifice' of Abandoning Her Post
Despite strong public support for election integrity and voter I.D. laws, CNN continues to portray Republican voting reform bills as racist and detrimental to democracy. The “news” network even pushed President Biden’s radical declaration that these bills are “a 21st century Jim Crow assault.” On Wednesday night’s episode of OutFront, host Erin Burnett hailed Texas Democratic State…
