At a time CNN should be riding high, the network is facing the biggest threat to its reputation since Jeff Zucker took over as top executive because of its liberal use of campaign surrogates like Donna Brazile and Corey Lewandowski.
CNN announced on Monday that Brazile, the acting head of the Democratic National Committee, had quit as a contributor two weeks ago. Brazile, who had been suspended at CNN upon taking the DNC job this summer, was exposed in documents released by WikiLeaks as feeding Hillary Clintons campaign questions in advance of primary debates.
The presence of Lewandowski, Donald Trumps former campaign manager, has also raised questions about whether political insiders hired as contributors are more loyal to the politicians they once worked for than a network and its viewers.
Besides, said a former CNN chief executive, it makes for lousy television.

I can’t tell you the sense of joy I feel in not being on the same side as Rove and his Bushite masters. Everything he touches turns to manure. Every prediction he makes is a jinx.
He claimed Romney was going to win, that prediction was sure on the money....
You have to admire the professionalism of George Stephanopolous at ABC. While dimwit Donna Brazile e-mails debate questions to the Clinton campaign, I am assuming that George is smart enough to simply read them over the phone to Robby Mook in advance so that there is no evidence.
Tokyo Rove can go entertain himself.
Rove was a mess in 2004. He almost blew it for GWB.
I know. I don’t have any use for him at all. Just another plump and self-satisfied insider that is mad that Trump didn’t hire him.
This is all just a business to most of these consultants. Trump isn’t greasing the palms of the old boy network and they can’t stand it.
I believe he and Jeff Gannon still have their Dubya Bush centerfolds on their bedroom walls.
Rove is an open boil on the ass of humanity and that’s being kind.
He wasted almost $150 million dollars on ZERO results in the last presidential election and they still use him as an “expert” analysis??? WTF!!
We’ve learned that many of these people would sell us out in a minute. GWB used to call Rove “turd-blossom”.
Him & Dick Morris.
AP: Corey = Brazille
That’s so slanted.
