CNN Reporter: Russia Is ‘All We Talk About At CNN,’ But Voters ‘Don’t Care’
The Daily Caller ^ | 1/21/2018 | Chuck Ross

Posted on 01/21/2018 9:23:19 AM PST by grayboots

A CNN reporter admitted on Sunday that her network’s obsession with Russia is out of touch with most of the American public.

“I’m so interested to see how the Russia investigation affects things, because so far, out in these districts when you talk to people about Russia, and that’s all we talk about at CNN basically, they say they don’t care,” Maeve Reston, a national politics reporter at CNN, said on “Inside Politics.”

“It doesn’t have any effect on their lives.”

CNN, along with MSNBC, have focused heavily on the Russia investigations being conducted by Special Counsel Robert Mueller and three congressional committees.

Democratic lawmakers appear frequently on both networks to push the idea that the Trump campaign colluded with the Russian government. The network also frequently interviews contributors and analysts who speculate about possible collusion, though none have offered proof that it actually occurred.

I haven't noticed the bothersome CNN blaring away at screens at airport restaurants and gate seating areas these days (I'm sure that it's still on some places, but apparently not nearly as many).

Perhaps too many complaints from conservative passengers?

Anyone here have an annoying friend that is fixated on something, government conspiracies? Area 51? JFK shooting?

After he tells you his concerns the 97th time, how much are you listening and how often do you just avoid him?

She’s reached that moment of realization and it hit her in the face “we dont give a Shiite about the fake Russia witch hunt and we know FNN is all fake all the time.”

Yeah, we aren’t concerned with #FakeNews, #FakeConspiracies, #SoreLosers, and #RedHerrings

REAL people want REAL results . . . an economy that works, peace thru strength, America First, fundamental fairness

So difficult for your PointyHeads and your programmed private schools and #LOOKITMEEEEE attitudes

Screw you

They are killing time until another Malaysian airliner goes missing to create the narrative Trump took it and is hiding it and cover it 24/7.

When Zucker’s job is done at CNN, the news is he’s off to do the same to ESPN.

Msnbc and Cnn need to watch FOX news so they will know what’s going on in the world. Have they even mentioned Obamagate and all the memo dealings yet?

If the story were “Russia and our Elections”, people might pay attention. The story the media tell is always “Russia and that is why Trump is illegitimate”, and no one who is not already all in cares to listen.

If that FISA memo is released CNN will change the subject faster than you can say FAKE NEWS.
