CNN didn’t just make one mistake trying to push President Joe Biden to extend the eviction moratorium. It made more than 200,000. That’s how much money it helped raise for a “mom” who wasn’t even the real mother of the kids in the story.
CNN ran a story on the August 2 edition of Erin Burnett OutFront fear-mongering over the moratorium ending by showing alleged “mom” Dasha Kelly on the verge of being evicted from her apartment. CNN correspondent Nick Watt propagandized how “Kelly and her [three] little girls” were served a 24-hour eviction notice to throw them “onto the street.” One chyron for the story read in all-caps: “SINGLE MOM OF 3 ON BRINK OF BEING EVICTED AFTER LOSING CASINO JOB SHE LOVED AND PAWNING MUCH OF WHAT SHE OWED.”
The network even promoted a GoFundMe page to help her cover the rent. The page was shared on CNN’s social media accounts, according to Fox News. Here’s the problem: CNN later issued a jaw-dropping update to the online version of the story August 9 admitting that Kelly is “not the mother of the three children featured in the story.”

CNN continues to be Zucked.
She identifies as the mother, so it’s all good.
That would be a good trick, if you could do it!
PAWNING MUCH OF WHAT SHE OWED.

Isn’t that how short-selling works on wall street?
Was she an oppressed minority? That’s what matters..
Trumps fault
Liars lied.
Imagine that.
I don’t wish anyone to be thrown out into the street, but NO ONE has the right to force a landowner to provide an apartment, heat, light, maintenance or insurance without compensation.
But am I surprised? The government is already doing things it has no right to do.
- setting a minimum hourly rate of pay
- giving preference to people based on race, religion, or reproductive practices
- throwing people into solitary without a trial
- sending our money to iran
And many others.
BWAHAHAHA! What a bunch of idiots.
“…But as CNN’s correction noted: “[T]he children are also cared for by their mother, Shadia Hilo, and their father, David Allison, who is Kelly’s boyfriend.” Kelly only cares for the children in her home for “periods of time,” according to CNN’s correction.
Kelly reportedly justified her comments by alleging that she “originally described herself to CNN as a mother because she considers herself to be like one to them.” CNN apparently didn’t find it necessary to verify whether Kelly’s status as a mother to the three girls was accurate before exploiting it to smear American landlords.”
“Mother” is a transphobic word. It is as racist as pronouns.

Please people, truth is irrelevant, it’s the narrative that counts!
I don’t watch CNN for the same reasons I don’t eat out of the toilet!
