We’re not responsible for reporting making the news…
CNN Worldwide president Jeff Zucker has all but admitted that the network is truly the “opposition party” to President Trump – telling the New York Times he is “entirely comfortable” with CNN’s Trump-Russia coverage, while brushing off the fact that they were completely wrong about collusion.
“We are not investigators. We are journalists, and our role is to report the facts as we know them, which is exactly what we did,” the unapologetic Zucker wrote in an email. “A sitting president’s own Justice Department investigated his campaign for collusion with a hostile nation. That’s not enormous because the media says so. That’s enormous because it’s unprecedented.”
Except that a CNN producer on hidden camera admitted that the Russia story was all for ratings, and the narrative is “mostly bullshit.”
