CNN Guest Drops ā€˜Nā€™ Word in Live, On-Air Smear of Bannon

CNN anchor Brooke Baldwin asserted on Tuesday that Bannon and Breitbart support the Nazi salute and white supremacy. “What about Steve Bannon … and Breitbart, the most prominent platform for what we just showed,” Baldwin said, referring to clips of attendees at a conference organized by National Policy Institute (NPI) President Richard B. Spencer raising their arms in what most recognize at the Nazi salute.

While the NPI is a white nationalist think tank, and Spencer himself identifies as such, he and his organization have absolutely nothing to do with Bannon.

Neither Bannon nor Breitbart has given a platform to Spencer or his organization, nor do they endorse white nationalism or white supremacy. The idea that Breitbart, an organization which employs several prominent Jewish conservatives, in any way condones neo-Nazism in any form is utterly ridiculous.

As preposterous as Baldwin’s statements were, they followed author and former New York Times journalist Charles Kaiser’s claim that Bannon used the N-word. Apparently wishing to be offensive as possible, Kaiser made no effort to censor the offensive word and said it live, on the air.

"If you don't want to support the Alt-Right, don't choose as a White House counselor a man who uses the word n****r," author Charles Kaiser said, referring to Bannon. "Wow," a visibly shocked Baldwin responded.

...

A quick search by LifeZette has found that no such quote with the word attributed to Bannon exists, and there is no evidence he has ever used the word.

Despite the outrageous assertion, CNN, as of 4:15 p.m. Tuesday, ran no on-air correction to clarify that there is no public evidence Bannon has ever used the offensive slur.

This snowflake society is in for a huge surprise when the hammer finally comes down with full force.

Especially lily liberals who can’t stand adjectives (but can sure vindictively dish them out to their enemies).

PLEASZZEEE! Do not confuse CNN airhead with facts. It will make them have the “vapors” and faint in fear of The Donald.

CNN - the Continually Knowing Nothing network.

CNN has an audience size as small as a Hillary rally.

Next!

CNN should answer if Trump’s daughter and son-in-law are Jewish? If so, why do they try to make Trump a Jew hater?

CNN reporter asked her guest: "How does Donald Trump tie his shoes?" To which he responded: "In little nazis".

I believe CNN is trying to push MSNBC out of being in last place all the time.

I see CNN can’t afford the “leg lights” that FOX uses.
