RE: CNN Producer Says Russia Narrative “bullshit"

in #politics7 years ago (edited)

I know how the community on here leans, but I'd take this with a very large grain of salt. This is another O'Keefe video, who has in the past been legally determined to have edited videos to misrepresent topics. So it doesn't exactly build a ton of confidence for him to have released another highly edited video on a controversial topic. O'Keefe also received money from from the Trump Foundation in 2016 to the tune of $10,000.

Its also worth noting that this producer is a producer for CNN Health. I haven't seen any reason to take his opinions on the validity of the Russia stories as fact. I don't doubt that CNN runs the stories that they believe will bring in the most viewership, or that they "entertainize" the stories, but that's a world of difference from publishing falsified stories.

There are way too many Trump fanbois here good for you!

Totally agree. To act as if FOX doesn't repudiate the same old bullshit every week, is quite hypocritical. The Russia thing IS ridiculous, but it's not any more ridiculous than a network like FOX not even reporting on many of Trump's fiascos. MSM is flawed and there are a lot of platforms that are growing that will eventually put it out of business.

It seems like we live in a world of 'finger pointers' who live on getting upvoted for pointing fingers when one media outlet has a FAIL, totally ignoring the shortcomings of their competitive networks the very same day.

Looking forward to living in a world without finger pointing and sensationalist articles/videos, calling out every small things that offends or baffles him/her.
