CNN Ridiculed over ‘Reality’ Reporters Combatting ‘Misinformation, Extremism’
Breitbart ^ | 01/20/2021 | Joshua Klein

CNN is being ridiculed online following the left-wing news network’s new job postings seeking “reality” reporters and an accompanying editor to help combat what it deems “misinformation,” with many noting the hypocrisy of the network having been accused itself of misinformation on many occasions.

In the job listing for the “misinformation” team in New York City, CNN Digital states it is seeking “reality” reporters and an editor to help run a “new team covering misinformation,” which the network is starting.

CNN promited a wrong narrative about:

Duke LaCross Players.
Atlanta Park Bomber (Richard Jewell)
Tawana Brawley
Nick Sandman
Michael Brown (Hands up don't shoot)
Trump-Russia Collusion / impeachment
Kyle Rittenhouse

And these are just a few off the top of my head. CNN needs to just shut up and turn out the lights.

Coming from the bastion of misinformation that is CNN, they wouldn’t know reality when it hits them upside the head.

You can watch this team report nightly on Cnn’s Democracy in Peril.

They’ve take to whole attacking Fox News with clips and commentary assailing the destruction of truth and the spreading of misinformation.

We all know they are just fire hosing their shrinking audience but it’s a sign that. ship is going down. They have nothing left to report.....Jan 6th and Fox is destroying the world.

One person’s “misinformation” may very well be the source and the lead that presents great new breakthroughs in scientific advancement.

According to the “experts” of the day, Galileo’s discovery that the earth revolved around the sun was not only “misinformation”, it was heresy, and Galileo was forced to recant for his “apostasy”.

But it turned out, overwhelming evidence that the earth DID in fact circle around the sun, demonstrated that in the end, Galileo was correct all along.

Now, do we have to go into the phlogiston theory, which was a myth that was finally blown up with the discovery of a previously unsuspected element? THAT was “misinformation” that had to wait on the creaking wheels of scientific inquiry until it was laid to rest.

Just like face masks do not work to prevent transmission of virus particles. Or mRNA injections do not prevent or even treat COVID-19 Wuhan virus infections.

But ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine-zinc-azithromycin protocol, or monoclonal antibodies DO treat the COVID-19 virus. And natural immunity works best of all.

The biggest source of misinformation is government and the news media.

I dare anyone to prove me wrong.

We can ridicule, but they’ll still press on with it.

Not to say CNN isn’t getting what is deserves but it is tmerely a falling scapegoat for the remaining 90% of media that passes editorials and propaganda off as news that the majority of voters take as legitimate reality.
