CNN claims that Nick Shirley's reporting lacks “fact checks” and “guardrails”

CNN has already gone after Nick Shirley, attempting to write off his reporting in Minnesota and lamenting his lack of “fact checks” and “guardrails.”

I’m not sure I would hang my hat on the legacy media’s “fact checks” or “guardrails” but at least CNN accurately reported that only the Right appears to be concerned about stopping the massive fraud in Minnesota and beyond.

Absolute jealousy. CNN can only dream of 120 million viewers watching its garbage.

Gee, I wonder if they subjected Dan Rather and Brian Williams to the same level of scrutiny?

Oh, I can’t wait to see President Trump’s people tear this apart.

” ‘Guardrails’ like CNN used to, ‘Fact Check,’ the Russian Dossier?’ “

Sic ‘em!
Show NO mercy!

“Rip and year until it’s done!”

I despise the enemedia.

Note the Minnesota tie-in.

Paging the IRS.

Yep, you are correct Mikey_Hates_everything. CNN has been caught with their pants down, and exposed for the MASSIVE organization that in theory, that no longer brings us the NEWS, but exists only to take down Presidents. CNN should hang it’s head in shame..just like in the Viet Nam song, HANG DOWN YOUR HEAD TOM DOOLEY.

“CNN can only dream of 120 million viewers watching its garbage.”

I agree completely. This kid has a bright future bringing truth to the world. But, I am a bit worried for his safety. I am glad Officer Tatum is giving him some cover.

“Quality LEARING Center”. That sign is enough evidence of wrongdoing.

Facts:
Nick visited several daycares, all receiving huge gubmint support
None had any children on site
Most did not have adults on site
Neighbours confirm facts indicate the business appear to have been long shuttered

Local journalists have been doing this for years. In CLE, we have “I Team Investigations”. “Get away from me Carl Monday!” Is a known little inside joke here. For CNN to imply that this is suddenly something new is disingenuous.

Guardrails like 51 intel experts saying that Hunter Biden’s laptop is “Russian disinformation”, those sort of guardrails ?

Not only those 51 , but every talking head repeating the same lie.

Rails ? CNN ‘s propagandists should be run out of town on a rail.
