ames OKeefes Project Veritas has struck again: This time, a senior CNN producer was caught on camera by one of OKeefes investigators admitting that the networks relentless bashing of President Donald Trump with the Russia scandal lacks proof.
Could be bullshit. I mean, its mostly bullshit right now, the CNN producer, John Bonifield, said in a video OKeefes Project Veritas released on Tuesday, when asked about his thoughts on the Russia investigation. Like, we dont have any giant proof. Then they say, well theres still an investigation going on. And youre like, yeah, I dont know. If they were finding something we would know about it. The way these leaks happen, they would leak it. Theyd leak. If it was something really good, it would leak
. The leaks keep leaking and theres so many great leaks, and its amazing. I just refuse to believe that if they had something really good like that that wouldnt leak because weve been getting all these other leaks. So, I just feel like they dont really have it but they want to keep digging. And so I think the president is probably right to say, like, look you are witch hunting me. You have no smoking gun. You have no real proof.

Three resign yesterday.
How long will John Bonifield have a job?
When will Zuckerberg take the golden parachute?

Devastating video. I don’t think you can underestimate the impact this will have. Its an open admission of what Trump has been saying all along and it vindicates everything he has said about fake news.

I see one problem with this revelation. CNN’s hyped up viewed numbers are all tied to ‘Russia’ as the topic. If you take out Zucker and the fake ‘Russia’ hype....what exactly will be the item to draw dedicated viewers to CNN? Just plain regular news?
To: Steely Tom
Yes, thank you for the correction!

But CNN overstepped their bounds and now got exposed for the fraudulent nature of the Russia story. This will NOT sit well with Time Warner upper management and they will toss CNN President Jeff Zucker under the bus quickly.

*** I think you mean “overestimate.” ***
Maybe not. The media will ignore this, the average American is already sick of it all and won’t pay any attention to what little gets through the wall of silence.
So, perhaps underestimate is the right word?

CNN Producer Bonifield was part of the team which produced a very dubious hit-piece on pediatric heart surgery and mortality at a Florida hospital. Not politics, I realize, but that piece has been severely criticized as inaccurate and misleading.
Elizabeth Cohen and John Bonifield, CNN CNN's investigation of pediatric open heart mortality rates at St. Mary's Medical Center in West Palm Beach, Florida, showed that the hospital had a much higher death rate than the national average. Both the hospital and state of Florida have responded with documents that criticize CNN's methodology.

Listening to Breitbart this morning, Alex Marlow nailed it saying if CNN put video of puppies at a birthday party of seals laying around on a beach it would bring in higher ratings.
