CNN to MSM: Refuse to Report on Trump Election Challenges!

Then I guess they can't comment on being told they are a bunch fake news phony's.

CNN has concluded that the challenges are not "serious," and thus that reporting on them

Guess where the Georgia votes are being counted at. LOL

====================================================================

How close are we to “tar and feathering” these SOBs? (figuratively speaking, of course)..

Screw that, they’ve promoted physical violence against us.

So when Trump is declared the winner CNN will have egg on their mugs. Good.

After the President is inaugurated for a second term, CNN will be howling “Trump stole the election” 24/7.

It will be _fun_ to watch _that_!

The concept of the crusading altruistic newspaper and journalist is dead, if it ever existed at all. Newspapers and media are, at their core, commercial enterprises that are colored by the politics of their owners. Time for truth in advertising legislation requiring newspapers carrying on their mastheads and networks and internet news sites a rating system for all to see how an independent body rates the slant of their coverage on a liberal to conservative spectrum.What criteria do they use. Simple. The if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck criteria. Also, much like illegal combines in business, prohibit media from colluding with each other as to what they will or will not cover

Perfect 60mm mortar range. Or point-blank for a 105mm gun.

To of the hour ABC news on radio didn’t mention a word about the press conference.

Jethro Bodine could shoot them big Ole letters right offn that bldg from that distance.

Is the mullah loving network going to sack gruppenfuhrer Amanpour

None of the major Noos carried the Trumps presser

Not even C Span1 or 2

They must all be scared shitless by now.

They are licensed to broadcast in the public interest on airwaves owned by the public.

I would contribute to a serious legal effort to rescind their license.

In some dark side of my brain, and yes, forgive me, Lord, I can seriously see hit squads in the futures of some in the MSM. They are literally treasonous liars at this point. Nothing more.

they pretty much are avoiding doing so anyways.

Thanks for the teaser but this isn’t clickbait central and the transcript isn’t owned by the blog. Let’s just post it here.

Suggested new CNN slogan: “We Don’t Report. We Decide for You.”

On today’s New Day, the idea was seriously propounded that the media should refuse to report on, or examine the merits of, Republican challenges to election results. CNN has concluded that the challenges are not “serious,” and thus that reporting on them would only serve to do the Republicans’ work for them.

Co-host Alisyn Camerota kicked off the discussion by pointing to a recent poll showing that 70 percent of Republicans think that Biden’s win was due to fraud. An angry John Berman shouted that Republicans believe that because people like Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy have “made it happen.”

Berman began the process of deep-sixing Republican challenges by saying he refused to get into the “nitty-gritty” of the news that in Michigan, the two Republican members of the Wayne County vote-canvassing board have rescinded their certification of the votes there. Exclaimed Berman: “it doesn’t matter!”

Here’s the moment from Berman:

I really don’t want to really get into the nitty-gritty of the reporting there, because as you have noted eloquently, it doesn’t matter! Right? What the Trump campaign and their acolytes are doing is trying to inject these sentences into the ecosystem.

Berman then turned to CNN analyst Jessica Huseman, lavishly praising her “eloquent” work on the subject. Huseman proceeded to make her astounding suggestion:

“I don’t think that there’s any point in the media lending these cases any credibility or examining the merits of the claims, because they simply don’t exist.”Jessica Huseman CNN New Day 11-19-20

But if the media accepts Huseman’s suggestion, and refuses to examine “the merits of the claims,” how can they possibly conclude that they have no credibility? Huseman is in effect telling the media: take my word for it!

Berman seconded Hulse’s suggestion, saying that by reporting on Republican challenges:

“You’re not debunking them, you’re bunking them. You’re doing the opposite of debunking them when you talk about it: you’re bunking them. You are laying them out. And doing the work [for the Republicans.]”

So there you have it. CNN calling for a media blackout on Republican challenges to the election. The MSM shouldn’t “talk about,” get into the “nitty-gritty,” or “lay out” GOP claims. Paging Jeff Bezos and the warning of his hip-pocket newspaper: “Democracy Dies in Darkness.”

CNN suggesting that the media should ignore Republican election challenges was sponsored in part by Lincoln, Proctor & Gamble, maker of Bounce, Amazon, and Zales. Contact them at the Conservatives Fight Back links and let them know what your thinking of CNN’s call to suppress the news of Republican election challenges.

ALISYN CAMEROTA: Developing overnight, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy giving the New York Times some insight into why Republican leaders are not pushing for the transition to Biden to begin. The Times’ Jonathan Martin asked, doesn’t Biden cool the country’s political temperatures, at least at first? McCarthy responded: “It depends how it turns out. If you have 70% of Republicans who thought he cheated, he’s still going to have a hard time.”

. . .

Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy wasn’t just spitballing that number. That’s from an actual poll. That’s Monmouth poll, where they ask: do you think that Biden won this election fair and square. Only 18% of Republicans a week ago, well, even less a few days ago, thought that. And they think it’s due to voter fraud; 70% of Republicans think that.

And so, it turns out that the blizzard of, you know, specious court cases and the constant repetition of that slogan—voter fraud, voter fraud—is taking root.

. . .

JOHN BERMAN: McCarthy throws out that statistic, as if it just happens to be randomly occurring, [shouts] when he’s one of the guys who made it happen! It’s because of Kevin McCarthy that 70% of Republicans think, wrongly, that this election was somehow fraudulent. And Jessica, you’ve been so eloquent about this. And I really appreciate the reporting and writing you’ve done on this.

I just want to, so people know, out of Michigan overnight, there are reports that those two members on the Wayne County Board of Canvassing have rescinded their certification of the votes in Wayne County.

I really don’t want to really get into the nitty-gritty of the reporting there, because as you have noted eloquently, it doesn’t matter! Right? What the Trump campaign and their acolytes are doing is trying to inject these sentences into the ecosystem.

. . .

JESSICA HUSEMAN: These are not serious legal cases. They never have been serious legal cases. What they are is an attempt to delay the inevitable result of this election for so long that people begin to doubt the legitimacy of Biden’s presidency. And I think that, you know, the statistic that you guys gave, the polling statistic that 70% of the Republican party does not, is exactly what they’ve been trying to achieve.

And I don’t think that there’s any point in the media lending these cases any credibility or examining the merits of the claims, because they simply don’t exist.

BERMAN: You’re not debunking them, you’re bunking them. You’re doing the opposite of debunking them when you talk about it: you’re bunking them. You are laying them out. And doing the work.
