CNN Goes Bonkers Over Bannon
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 11/14/2016 9:53:57 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Remember when, at the beginning of his administration, President Obama made Valerie Jarrett his closest advisor, and how CNN went on the attack because of her far-left roots? Neither do I.

But now that President-elect Trump has named Steve Bannon as a senior advisor, CNN is in full inquisition mode. Chris Cuomo and Poppy Harlow, co-hosts on today’s New Day, cross-examined Trump spox and former Sen. Tom Coburn, respectively. References to the alt-right, anti-Semitism, etc. flew as the CNNers combatively questioned their guests.

Each and every pick for a key position should(and will) be based on the most effective person and maximun impact on pissing off the Libs. Who cares what the media or Trump thinks.Recall the now missing, ValJar, there will be paybacks for all those who opposed us. I have a gut feeling Trump is “already on it: and really is smart enough not to actually say it.

I posted this on another thread this morning:
I think Trump needs, after he’s been inaugurated, to sit down and have a chat with America one evening about the media. He needs to re-educate people. It would go something like this.

“America, we have experienced over the past 16 years (actually a lot longer, folks, a lot longer) a medium that calls itself news but is so partisan it fits the definition of propaganda. All the main newspapers and tv news shows and channels, rather than reporting their best version of truth, spent 8 years attacking President Bush. Then they spent the following 8 years fawning over President Obama. We’ve seen in the last two years, during this presidential campaign, the same obvious bias so clearly.

“A biased media does our country no favors. News should be as close to the truth as smart investigators can find. We do have freedom of the press in this country, and that is a wonderful thing. And that means that news organizations are free to engage in partisan propaganda. Fine, we can accept that. Yet, if we as a nation seek the truth (and we do, don’t we folks?), we must have somewhere to turn to actually learn the truth.

“Which is why my administration has decided to give media members who demonstrate a strong effort to report the truth neutrally (no one is perfectly neutral, right? We don’t expect perfection. We all do have opinions that can be difficult to hide) greater access to our goings on at the White House. We know that my presidency is only a start. All future presidencies and the American public gain from a robust, free press and lose from a partisan court of jesters.

“We welcome media from around the world every day, and will continue to. But American sources of the press have fallen behind their international peers in reporting the truth. (I got more accurate information during the election from the U.K. Daily Mail than from our greatest newspapers here! This can’t happen, folks!). The only influence a leader of a country can have on his press is to reward honesty with access, and that is what will happen. It is my greatest hope that this will encourage more honest news reaching our hard working American people who don’t have time to read seven sources and filter out the bias.”

Search Jared Kushner (Jewish) son-in-law. Ivanka Trump Kushner (Jewish daughter), Jewish grandchildren.

Liberal Jews laugh at Jewish tradition and observance as unsophisticated. Ignore them. Conservative and Orthodox Jews voted Trump.

Someone should ask CNN on the air why they never get upset about George Soros.


Or ValJar.

I know it's the New York Times, and therefore suspect ...

Protestant or other Christian: 39% for the beast
Catholic: 45% for the beast
Jewish: 71% for the beast
Something else: 62% for the beast
None: 68% for the beast.

Among racial/ethnic/religious demographics, this is second only to "Black" in support for the beast, and represents an 8 percentage point increase for the democRAT from 2012.

FWIW.

CNN conspired with Hillary Clinton to fix an election by way of giving her Debate questions ahead of time.

CNN and other fifth-column leftist media scum (Yeah, you, too, Lester) will whine when Trump inhales, and whine some more when he exhales.

Great choice. Hope it happens... They need to realize there are “real men” now running our country...

Speaking of real men, how about a role for this guy, at least on the phone or via skype:

I believe all they have is a statement his wife gave during the divorce saying he didn’t want their kids to go to a private school that was mostly Jewish because the Jewish kids were crybabies and wimps. She later recanted that statement. That’s pretty much all I can find. So they basically have nothing.

Right. I can’t tell you how delighted I was when Valerie Jarett (communist) was chosen by Obama. (sarc)

Yeah, I saw that. I would like to see on tv the Secret Service or US Marshalls arrest this guy and shove his ass in the back seat of a police car.
