CNN Host Ends Trump Impeachment Panel After Republican Floats Debunked Biden, Clinton Conspiracies
Newsweek ^ | November 2, 2019 | Benjamin Fearnow

Posted on 11/03/2019 12:15:48 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

CNN host Victor Blackwell abruptly ended a Saturday panel about Republicans' impeachment strategy plans after a guest insisted on "debunked conspiracies" about Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton.

The discussion aimed at identifying the Republican Party's strategies for countering the House impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump derailed when former GOP South Carolina Lieutenant Governor André Bauer continued to berate the panel with accusations against Joe and Hunter Biden.

Blackwell asked Bauer and CNN political commentator Tara Setmayer to respond to Trump acting Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney and several senators' admitting a Ukraine quid pro quo took place. But the adamantly pro-Trump Bauer repeatedly said the Bidens should be investigated instead of the president.

The panel ultimately concluded with a frustrated Blackwell declaring, "We're done with this conversation."

More than 1/3 probably. Many people only watch sports or movies on cable TV. They do not care about CNN at all. They add to those of us who care about the news and avoid fake news CNN on purpose.

You loyal ATT subscribers should be complaining.

I don’t think the word ‘debunked’ means what Blackwell thinks it means.

Rumored, heck, there’s at least 4 unnamed sources that would testify to it. And if you don’t believe it you are a racist homophobic pussy-grab approving misogynist.

“Debunked “ and “Fact Checked” the media’s new buzz words to dress up the same crepola in a new hula skirt

Debunked= a panel of liberals on CNN all agreeing with each other that some fact inconvenient to their conspiracy theory isn’t true. Thereafter, it’s referred to as being “debunked.”

Fact Check= the newsroom of the WaPo slapping the words the “Fact Check” in front of some outrageous claim or countering something inconvenient with their conspiracy theory as being not true because it was, wait for it, “fact checked.” In other words, another way of saying “our opinion.” Usually, said “fact checked” stories have a by line with multiple authors. You can pretty much bet the authors are the one’s who supplied the check of the facts.

I’ll start listening when Newsweak mentions the debunked Russian Collusion conspiracy.

It’s OBVIOUS that the media has marching orders:

(1) If talking about what really happened, ALWAYS use ‘debunked’, ‘unproven’, and/or ‘discredited’, ‘conspiracy theories’.

(2) If talking about Trump going down in a discussion format, and someone moves into what the Democrats did, steer them back to Trump, otherwise end the discussion.

(3) For #2, above, always have backup copy ready to run, should it be necessary to terminate a discussion early.

If you want to piss off a conservative, lie to him.
If you want to piss off a liberal, tell the truth!

If cable packages were all unbundled, and people had the choice of de-selecting CNN...I would suspect that around one-third of most cable users today would have it removed from their package.

Without that group, and with less money-flow....CNN would have serious issues surviving.

Yep. Maine passed à la cart cable legislation, it's being challenged in court.

Is there a bunk free edition of Newsweak?

Just a glossy advertiser sheet, maybe?

Yeah? Who debunked ‘em? I’d love to see what would happen if Republicans investigated Clinton and Biden curruption by conducting secret meetings and leaking cherry-picked bits of information.

“They aren’t debunked.“

It is what they say it is, several hundred carefully orchestrated and planned times a day.

No longer can complain about A&TT

I got rid of all my phones with this craphole of a company and their overpriced products and hard sell to get my mother on the internet. (She has no computer) Just sad that my beloved Dallas Cowboys has A&TT on their stadium nameplate(Damn you, Jerrah Jones!)
