CNN Host To Bob Schieffer: People Will Say You’re ‘Normalizing’ Trump by Praising Saudi Speech
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 05/21/2017 2:42:04 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Bob Schieffer is an old-school newsman. There’s no doubt that the former Face the Nation host leans left, but he is still capable of reporting, you know, the news. That is too much for denizens of the modern MSM to tolerate.

On today’s Reliable Sources on CNN, Schieffer reported the glaringly obvious truth: that President Trump gave a good speech in Saudi Arabia today. Guest host John Berman had to push back: “you know, Bob, though, that there will be people who look at that last comment you made and say you’re normalizing the president.”

How dare Schieffer say Trump gave a good speech in Saudi Arabia? That’s “normalizing” him.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

Schieffer needs to try to “normalize” the buffoons at CNN. They’re all a bunch of leftwing loons.

The Ministry of Propaganda can’t have anybody leaving the reservation.
They’ve been working so hard to marginalize President Trump they can’t have anybody “normalizing” him.

He’s the President, get over it.

We had to swallow eight years of a man who was never even eligible to be President.

Does CNN know you are ripping off their stuff and pimping it for hits?

Looks like s/he linked to Legal Insurrection, which has been around for a long time. And I'd rather give them hits than the criminals at CNN

Shh. No. CNN doesn’t realize I’m ripping them off. Please don’t give me away. I’ll split the take with you.

Democrats - which includes the media - are actively courting the mentally ill as a new voting bloc. Comments like this are designed to appeal to the drooling half wits they want as new permanent voters.

Trump IS normal, you pipsqueak.

It’s you who would have a hard time being normalized.

Is there some question as to whether the President is normal?

They hate Trump even when he is propagating liberal Democrat world view and policy.

MSM has no credence. When I do see a TV lit with this nonsense the only attention that should be afforded is to note the advertisers to let them know that their money has been wasted. Worse yet their association with fake news has cost them angst gain.

Schieffer’s too old to remember his lines.
