CNN keeps tripping over itself as it attempts to defend against the Project Veritas tapes being released

No matter were they turn to try to spin the story, CNN steps on a rake, walks into a lamp post, trips over a curb, or falls into a manhole. The release of taped phone conversations by Project Veritas from months of CNN conference calls with CEO Jeff Zucker has Zucker, the network, and even their ”journalists” scrambling to deal with the fallout.

Fact-check – They are not dealing with the fallout at all.


Just for openers, there was the tantrum-like announcement by the CNN Communications team that they were going to contact the authorities over the recordings.

Making this a pathetic threat/promise/whine is that over the course of this summer CNN — in a bid to curry favor with Black Lives Matter — did a number of reports where they clearly showed support for defunding the police.

Just precious. They want the authorities disbanded, until it comes time for their elitist outfit to claim some offense; then suddenly the police are a valid and worthwhile enterprise.

Not content with one hypocritical stance, regarding this same issue CNN has a remarkably short-term memory. See, when it comes to those who tape phone conversations without full permission of all parties and release them for the purpose of making a political hit, CNN is not always opposed.

It was almost two months ago exactly when the network was more than thrilled to be running the secretly taped phone conversations of Melania Trump, in an attempt to smear her prior to the election.
