CNN’s Camerota “Uncomfortable Going Too Far” in Outing Anonymous
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Collusion? You want to see some collusion? Check out CNN’s Alisyn Camerota this morning. She expressed reluctance in outing the anonymous author of yesterday’s New York Times op-ed. Camerota gave two reasons for her reluctance:

[snip]

2. “I also am uncomfortable going too far in trying to out this person who wasn’t, clearly, ready to be outed, because this person argues that they are doing important work inside the White House or inside the administration and therefore doesn’t want to be outed right now.”

Let’s break this down.

[snip]

As to not wanting to out anonymous because “this person argues that they are doing important work inside the White House or inside the administration and therefore doesn’t want to be outed right now.” You’ve got to be kidding! Camerota’s not outing someone because he doesn’t want to be outed? Sounds like Camerota has adopted anonymous’ argument about doing “important work” and doesn’t want to hurt that effort. That makes Camerota anonymous’ collaborator.

I think she’s just generally uncomfortable with her head that far up her ass. I wonder if she’d feel the same way if there were someone inside the Obama White House actively undermining his policy objectives...

But no problem with threatening to publish names and addresses of jurors in the Manafort trial in case they were thinking of acquittal.

So would you call a journalist who spent time on a conservative news network acting like a conservative and then jumped to a very liberal news network and became the face of far left news a journalist whore?

Good grief, it shouldn’t be too hard to find out who this person is and fire their a*s.

Appoint a special prosecutor.
Start with the NYT employee who gave the story permission to be printed. Use Muller tactics to extract the next person from the perp, and so on, until some or all are in jail and ready to turn in more, so the charges don’t get worse.

Can’t believe she was once on FOX. She’s never too uncomfortable to lie about Trump.

Along with Alisyn, don’t forget Megyn Kelly also came from Fox. Must be the “Y” substituted for another vowel in the name that makes them snap and go Libtard.

First, the President lacks the authority to issue any such order to the NYT. A judge may issue a subpoena to the NYT but that authority is vested in the judiciary and not a proper exercise of executive power. But more to the point, if the administration makes a national security claim in pursuit of the identity of this anonymous official, then that would validate the claims made against the President. The subversion alleged by the op-ed and excerpts from Woodward’s book is premised upon the claim that the President is either addled or else irredeemably incompetent. One of the claimed acts of subversion involved removing an unsigned order from the President’s desk and trusting that there would be no follow up question from the chief executive. Does anyone believe this actually occurred? Undoubtedly, no! Yet, so-called allies of President Trump continue to alleged subversion or sedition or a deep state. Why? Do you believe the President to be incompetent, or stupid, or woefully ignorant? Because if subversion such as this has occurred, then the President must be at least one of those things. This is a separate matter entirely from the Russia nonsense. The President is under no political pressure to acquiesce to his senior aides openly disregarding his orders. If such subversion occurred, then the offenders would have been immediately fired. Since no such firings occurred, we must conclude that none of this alleged subversion occurred. If you insist on believing that the President is the victim of subversion, then kindly explain what evidence you have that the President is stupid or incompetent!

Obviously CNN thinks betraying America is important work.

Camerota colluding with anonymous to keep him anonymous because he claims to be doing “important work inside the White House.”

We didn't elect 'anonymous'...

These McCain and Jeb! followers are cheaters. They work for people we did NOT elect.

The Shoeless Joe Jackson cabal needs to resign... and allow the President to have people on his team who work with him.

I can make her sing like a bird.

Tie her to a chair, and play “this little piggy” with a hammer.

Wow. I don’t think anyone would have to go that far. She wants a microphone - give it to her. She makes a fool of herself every time she opens her mouth.
