Jay Carney joins CNN
Politico ^ | September 10, 2014 | HADAS GOLD

Posted on 09/10/2014 7:39:56 AM PDT by Hojczyk

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.

WELCOME TO LOSERVILLE!

I.Q. Way, way down!

Some 'reward,' a highly-paid position at yet another failing propaganda organ of the state. Just like Chelsea's plum W-2 generator...

WOW.

I thought those posters were hanging in Carney’s office, which was bad enough.

They are hanging in THEIR HOME!!!

The one he shares with Comrade Shipman.

What’s with all the baked goods stacked up on the table and the counter?

This picture looks like something out of one of George Orwell’s nightmares.

I’d watch if it were Drew Carey and his cohorts instead of Carney.

"Jay's unique experience as both a journalist and a White House press secretary make him an invaluable voice for the network..."

Translation:

"Jay's unique experience as both a baldfaced liar and a White House apologist make him an invaluable voice for the network..."

Peace! Land! Bread! This was the battle cry of the 1917 October Revolution (old calendar) that would changed the history of Russia and indeed the entire world – the cry of workers and peasants fed up with a failed system and the trials of war.

Seems we are probably at the cusp of our first Big Brother implementation. The cameras, devices and networks are largely in place. The propaganda has been effectively implemented for decades (from Frankfurt School). The politicians, gov schools, media, churches and now Chamber of Commerce are majorly aligned. Our people are mostly careless of their privacy. A gun grab would be the final piece.

If CNN wanted someone who could really be good at providing analysis of hussein they should hire someone from ESPN who has covered a lot of golf tournaments.

Well, I believe that Johnny Miller is now available . . .

It appears that Carney beat out that other sack of crap, David Gregory, who also interviewed at CNN.
Such repulsive people.
