The Latest News about CNN

CNN and the Democratic National Committee have continued their team-up effort to get former Vice President Joe Biden the nomination as quickly and painlessly as possible – this time by turning the March 15th debate into a CNN-only, TV-only, seated event that seems designed to protect Mr. Biden. Biden’s campaign has shortened his speeches to 7 minutes. Other than a ...

CNN issued a study a while back that found regularly attending church may increase a Christian’s lifespan while at the same time helping “them stay grounded and [providing] spiritual guidance.” I’m guessing this positive benefit results from the additional sleep gained by snoozing during boring sermons. Regular readers know this column normally takes a dim view of social “science” studies, ...

They know not what they do...

The feeling is mutual @CNN -> Watch: CNN Doesn't Think Very Highly of You - At All

To hear Lev Parnas tell it, as he did in interviews this week with Rachel Maddow and Anderson Cooper, his laser-like focus on getting rid of the American ambassador to Ukraine was purely in service of President Trump and Rudy Giuliani. In his interviews, which aired Wednesday and Thursday, Parnas apologized for his role in forcing Marie Yovanovitch’s removal from ...

Lev Parnas’s comments to The New York Times on Wednesday appear to conflict with what CNN reported about the Soviet-born businessman back in November.  Parnas told the Times that he did not speak directly with President Trump about his Ukraine-related efforts. Instead, Parnas worked closely with Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani. CNN reported on Nov. 16 that associates of Parnas’s said ...

CNN aired audio of a tense exchange between Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders that took place at the end of a Democratic presidential debate in Des Moines, Iowa on Tuesday. “I think you called me a liar on national TV?” Warren said as she approached Sanders. “What?” Sanders replied. “I think you called me a liar on national TV?” ...

CNN faced backlash Tuesday night after debate moderator Abby Phillips took Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s side and stated as fact that Sen. Bernie Sanders told Warren in a private conversation that a woman couldn’t win the presidential election. Warren has accused Sanders of telling her in a private 2018 dinner that a woman candidate couldn’t the 2020 race — but Sanders ...

It must be very frustrating for President Trump. He’s clearly sees what needs to be done politically to counter attacks from the left, but the political pygmies that surround him refuse to cooperate. And I’m not referring to the Democrats. This particular pygmy is Curator of the Senate Mitch McConnell. The Curator would be much more comfortable if Trump were ...

The Justice Department inspector general’s report undermined several years of reporting from journalists who defended the Steele dossier and the FBI’s handling of the infamous report.  CNN’s Jim Sciutto was at the forefront in defended the dossier, and the bureau.  In numerous segments since early 2017, Sciutto insisted that parts of the dossier had been corroborated, and that the FBI ...

CNN editor-at-large Chris Cillizza perfectly demonstrated in an article Wednesday why trust in the media remains so low among the American public. Cillizza blatantly misrepresented a recent poll to portray Republican voters as uniquely “unquestioning supporters” of President Donald Trump. A Monmouth University poll released Wednesday showed that Republican voters said  George Washington was a better president than Trump by ...

Republican California Rep. Devin Nunes is adamantly denying that he traveled to Vienna last year and met with a former Ukrainian prosecutor to dig up dirt on Joe Biden, as CNN alleged in a story published last month. “CNN is the mother of fake news,” Nunes said in a defamation lawsuit against the network filed Tuesday in federal court in ...

CNN interviewed Andrew McCabe on Friday about developments in a Justice Department criminal investigation of the origins of the Trump-Russia probe, but the network failed to disclose that the former FBI deputy director is suing the Justice Department and is under criminal investigation himself. Interviewed by CNN’s Jim Sciutto, McCabe, a CNN analyst, was largely critical of the investigation, which ...

CNN President Jeff Zucker bashed Fox News at the “Citizen by CNN Forum” Thursday, telling host Brian Stelter that the network is “state-run TV” that’s “morphed into conspiracy TV.” “Citizen by CNN” is a “civic engagement platform” designed to “discuss issues that matter, the motivations to vote and the importance of being informed and engaged in the political process,” according ...

CNN’s chief legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin said Monday that he regrets covering the Hillary Clinton email scandal as much as he did, adding that she “very likely lost the election because of” how much the media covered it. The Justice Department concluded an investigation Friday into the former Secretary of State’s decision to use a private email server for official ...
