As expected, Jake Tapper is all about attacking Trump over ........ Vince Foster.
Guess Vince forgot he was left-handed. Happens to me all the time; I forget I’m right-handed.
Oh, and I also say, “My Buddhist Faith” accidentally all the time, too.
OK, So, I recently had an honest conversation with the head writer for Jake Tapper’s 4pm est, CNN show. Jason something.
Yes, news shows have writers.
He expressed his frustration and the cynical nature of the news business in general for having to cover and report on Trump. He hates it, but is forced to do so for ratings.
For more than a brief moment I sensed that he was having “Crisis of Conscious” as he vented and I was more than happy to hear him out and prod him.
The impression he left on me was that he was/is part of a machine and there was nothing he could do but go along. I brought up the 1970’s movie “Network”, he knew it and said in effect “It’s just like that”. He liked my idea that the MSM News could generate ratings by calling out the other networks for their flat out lies and misrepresentations. A news war that would make for great ratings.
I got his phone number if anybody wants to call him.
