Former White House Press Secretary Jay Carney will join CNN as a political commentator, the network announced Wednesday.
He will start Wednesday night as President Barack Obama makes a prime-time statement about the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, Sam Feist, CNN's Washington bureau chief said in a statement.
"Jay's unique experience as both a journalist and a White House press secretary make him an invaluable voice for the network as we cover the final two years of the Obama Administration and look ahead to the coming campaigns," Feist said. "We're fortunate to have Jay on our air tonight to provide analysis and insight surrounding the President's address to the nation."

Carney said when he left the White House in May that he'd maintain a public presence in the media. He also signed with the Washington Speakers Bureau.
"I'm thrilled to be joining CNN at a time when there is so much happening in the nation and the world," Carney said in a statement.
Carney joins a long line of former White House Press Secretaries making the jump to cable: Robert Gibbs joined CNBC after leaving the White House, Dana Perino is currently a host on Fox News, and George Stephanopoulos is now an ABC News anchor.
Carney's name had also been floated for jobs at tech companies like Apple and Uber. His former White House colleague David Plouffe will join Uber next month.

CNN welcomes the Bagdad Bob of American journalists on board, surely you jest.
But since Goebels is no longer available, I guess it would make a smidgen of sense to hire the best at what they do. I’m sure he’s worth every penny and more of what NBC paid Chelsea. /s
A mendacious carney-barker for a mendacious, apparatchik network...what could go wrong?!
Side note: Since I do not watch CNN, who actually spends money to advertise on this joke of a network these days?
Joining the Liars’ Club at an almost-defunct Leftist network is the best he could do for a paycheck, poor devil.
Washingtonian MOM magazine's spring issue has a profile of White House Press Secretary Jay Carney's wife, ABC News contributor Claire Shipman, that features a picture taken inside their home. In the background of the photo, you can see two framed Soviet-era propaganda posters. One of Carney's posters is a version of this iconic design by artist Dmitry Moor with a soldier pointing his finger alongside text that says "Have YOU Enlisted?" in Russian: http://nation.foxnews.com/2014/04/12/jay-carney-decorates-home-soviet-propaganda
The propaganda noose around our necks tightens every single day, doesn't it !

Good place for the little lickspittle punk.
Obama: “On the eve of the anniversary of 911 I regret to tell you that we cannot do anything against my ISIS brother and in order to protect the people of the United States, as is my duty, I hereby declare martial law.”
Naturally...
Will his show be called “Goebbel’s Corner”?
Other than have their mouths affixed to some dims package I have often wondered what qualifies these morons to land these high paying gigs at these tech companies?
A verisimilitude of an early sixties black & white cartoon with Carney opening the door for Miss Information.
He asks her to stand by the window and kicks her out of it.
A large hairy beast is brought into his office and it is named Misinformation.
Carney says, “That's more like it!”
Then his theme song begins (”LIES” by the Knickerbockers)
“Jay Carney joins CNN” about six years ago.

The incest continues
Carney is just another Obama whore...
HE: How about having sex with me for $10,000?
SHE: For $10,000?
HE: Yes, $10,000.
SHE: Well... Okay.
HE: How about having sex with me for $50?
SHE: Only $50! What do you think I am?
HE: We already know what you are. Now we’re just negotiating your rates.
I would have bet on Al Jazeera.
Yes, the Left does take care of its own. He’s done his duty; now it’s payday time.
Ideal place, the Communist News Network, for a communist and a paid apologist.
and CNN has no idea why they keep shooting themselves in the foot!
