CNN Host DEFENDS Press Obsessing Over Itself as Educational to Public
Having been a network where pomposity and an absence of humility reigned supreme during Jeff Zucker’s tenure, CNN has relapsed since Friday, when President Trump banned it from the White House, and thus it was no surprise that Wednesday’s The Arena included a breathtakingly absurd monologue from host Kasie Hunt arguing the press flaunting itself isn’t selfish or proof they don’t care about the…
