Just when you thought CNN couldn’t cheapen itself any further. On Thursday, CNN Newsroom reacted to a powerful White House statement Chief of Staff and Gen. John Kelly (Ret.) amidst the Gold Star families controversy by noting Kelly’s personal sacrifices before lambasting him for calling out a Democratic member of Congress and attacking the media.
Right off the bat, CNN Political Director David Chalian noted that “it's hard to listen to a father tell that story and not have sympathy” before declaring that Kelly’s emotions must be separated “from the White House chief of staff going into the press briefing room to clearly try and attempt to clean up a political mess that, quite frankly, his boss largely created.”
“[B]ecause John Kelly wouldn't be part of this story and wouldn't feel the need to go to the press and address this and we wouldn't have a ton of questions if it were not for his boss who injected him into this entire episode this week,” Chalian added.
That’s the thing with CNN. Network personalities might accurately claim that something isn’t political, but then disqualify themselves by going political and making any segment into an anti-Trump tirade.

“I was a bit quite frankly with all respect put off by him and Secretary Mattis today criticizing the media coverage of this somewhat...” Kirby complained.
Well, CNN is #FAKENEWS Kirby.
That is what you do.
You LIE.
CNN = Corrupt, Nasty, Narcissists
CNN is a sad joke!
No ... I never thought such a thing. The swamp of depravity in which CNN wallows has no bottom. They can ALWAYS further cheapen themselves.
New owners, same garbage!
You wonder what’s CNN’s viewership as they spew the madness across the planet? You would think the aliens from distant planets were mounting a rescue mission to the Planet Earth.
CNN wants to repeat the Khan job that Khizr concocted during the Democrat Convention.
Keep it up, CNN. We, the People, are absolutely with Gen Kelly on this one.
Putin doesn’t have these kinds of problems with the press.
I wonder why.
“We, the People, are absolutely with Gen Kelly on this one.”
Oh Lord. With bells on.
Spent a year at Walter Reed during the war with Iraq as a Red Cross volunteer. I was on the amputation ward, Ward 52, the Snake pit. The courage, the kindness and selfness I saw was through the roof!
A life lesson that was the best life lesson I ever learned. It was a gift from God to serve that 1%
When Kelly talked about the top 1%, he made me cry.
We are so blessed to have these outstanding people amongst us.
If any FReepers live near a VA, think about getting you butt in gear. These people appreciate our help sooo much.
I’m still doing volunteer work at WR and am so grateful for the opportunity.
CN who?
CNN went from being a 24hr news network to a 24hr OpEd network. That’s all.
I’m not a huge fan but Kelly totally PWNED the democrat swine on this one.
Thank you for your time helping our Wounded Warriors.
