CNN Parrots Dem Tropes: 'Democracy on Ballot, Election Denier, Big Lie'

The new head of CNN has said he wants the network to become less of a partisan liberal outlet. In particular, Licht has called for on-air people to avoid using Democrat tropes like "the big lie." Mediaite reports:
"Licht argued that using 'the big lie' makes the mistake of adopting branding used by the Democratic Party, thereby weakening the objectivity of the network."
Despite Licht's supposed mandate to lean away from liberal partisanship, and to avoid using Democrat tropes, in the very first minutes of this morning's New Day, discussing yesterday's primary results, co-hosts Brianna Keilar and John Avlon parroted no fewer than three Dem tropes.

So, are these CNN hosts openly defying the new boss’s edict that he wants them to lay off the Democrat tropes like “election deniers,” or do they know he wasn’t serious about it and actually wants them to continue their Democrat propaganda?
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

"wants the network to become less of a partisan liberal outlet"
But, wait! We've been told for decades "there is no liberal bias"...

no one denies the election took place... we just want it to be correct in counting only legitimate ballots.

They don’t have to watch, but what they say does filter out to other channels. They still have way too much influence.
