CNN was one of the networks that refused to air Trump’s speech this week, a fact that should surprise no one. What is surprising, is the stunningly dishonest explanation for this, offered by resident ‘media reporter’ Brian Stelter.
According to Stelter, the network ‘monitored’ the speech and decided what was newsworthy and then ‘contextualized’ the speech for their audience.
Funny. That’s not how CNN approached more than ten years of pushing the Russia collusion hoax. Also, don’t forget, by refusing to air the speech, CNN was basically telling American voters, who put Trump in the White House, that THEY will decide when the voters hear from the President of the United States.
Because they’re so devoted to democracy, you see. What a joke.
RedState reports:
Now you might think that this would be something the media would want to cover, given how much time they spent on the fake Russia collusion hoax. But as we reported, major liberal media outlets like ABC, NBC, and MS NOW passed on the president’s prime-time address, even though such speeches are routinely televised in full.
But in some ways, CNN was the worst, revealing more than it probably intended when it explained why it didn’t air the speech.
“Some network executives felt it would be dangerous to just air Trump’s speech live, in full, unedited without knowing what he was going to say ahead of time. That’s where we are in America.”
Why is it dangerous? Why can’t they allow you to judge what he says on its own merit?
“Trump’s election lies led to violence,” Stelter said. Even this is misleading, since Trump never incited violence, told people to act peacefully, and when they didn’t, encouraged people to stop on Jan. 6.
It apparently wasn’t “dangerous” to falsely report on Russia collusion or any of the slew of other false reports CNN and other media have made about Trump, which greatly divided the country and still has people believing lies for years.
Here’s the clip:

CNN is an absolute abomination.
It’s a far left political outfit that pretends to be a news network. What would be lost if they went off the air forever? Nothing.
