Jake Tapper Is Paid Millions A Year To Not Know The News
The Federalist ^ | 30 June 2025 | Shawn Fleetwood

Just when you think CNN’s Jake Tapper can’t become an even bigger media hack than he already is, he finds a way to prove you wrong.

The latest incident of the network host’s shoddy conduct as a so-called “journalist” came on Friday during his interview with New York City Mayor Eric Adams. Among the topics covered during the exchange was the Big Apple’s upcoming mayoral contest, which will pit Adams against the newly nominated Democrat candidate, radical socialist Zohran Mamdani.

When the conversation shifted to the race against Mamdani, Tapper — whose network a jury found is actually fake news — probed Adams about his criticisms of his Democrat opponent. More specifically, the TV personality claimed the incumbent mayor “said recently that the Jewish community in New York should be concerned about him,” and asked, “What specifically has Mamdani said that you think is antisemitic?”

“Pro-Hamas,” Adams replied. “Hamas is a dangerous terrorist organization that should be destroyed. When you embrace the philosophies of Hamas, not only what they do to their own people, but what they did in Gaza, to lift them up and praise them, I think that’s a clear indicator that something is wrong with that.”

Clearly desperate to fulfill his role as a Democrat Party shill, Tapper leapt to Mamdani’s defense by declaring he had no idea what Adams was talking about.

Is anyone with at least one neuron still firing even watching CNN?

I actually thought this was the Bee, based on the headline.

I see a new book in Jake’s future — “Why Didn’t Anyone Try To Tell the Media That Mamdani was Anti-Semitic?”

No more ridiculous than Moron Mika, Moron Joe or Maddcow being paid millions for puking mental bullshit every day but that’s the Lame Street Media’s problem as their viewership continues to plummet.
