So Much For 'Un-Biased': CNN Staff Revolting Over Lewandowski Hiring

[amrchaos]

Just another talking head on CNN… Drumpf has no idea what he is doing (policy wise) and Corey will add little to any insight into the small fraction of a man’s mindset.

Why so cynical?

If he does not work, he is gone in November. A calculated risk for a couple of political news scoops. The less he can produce, the more dangerous one can consider the Trump campaign!!

That's an early November scoop right there:Former campaign manager can not predict what Trump will do next is a news story itself!!

Whoever said CNN is unbiased, is off their rocker.

Like most of the old media, they are completely in the tank for the D party.

gipper,

it is time to get real, CNN are on the side of ratings and that is it... They are pretty bad but it is not out of bias towards the left, they gave Trump loads of free coverage.. At one stage they cut of Bernie's speech so they could show an empty stage where Trump will arrive...

Yeah, these tinfoilers and their persecution complexes...

I keep tellin' 'em, nobody but nobody makes money off of taking a political position. Can't be done.

Trump criticized daily on CNN and other leftist networks. Hillary seldom if all criticized.

This is considered unbiased reporting today, by the ignorant.

There's no such thing as a "leftist" or "rightist" network. Not one that makes money. The only "bias" CNN takes is the same one they all take -- ratings. The fact that they hire a notorious loose cannon with name recognition rather than an unknown but astute political commentator, drives that point home. NOBODY makes money taking a political slant. You can't do it.

And there's no need to "criticize" Rump. All you have to do is quote him. He does the rest.

As in ...

He's not a reporter, k-k-klown, he's a political commentator. You are right about one thing, you're a klown. Did I mention people should be laughing with you, not at you?

Great response Mr Trump. Now say everyone is a failure and complete the impression

Hiring Lewandowski shows they are willing to show the other side, though.

I can't agree.

Hiring one guy does not change anything and besides, he could be a liberal like all the others on CNN. Just because he worked for Trump, does not mean he is not a lefty.

 

[Mac1958]

Just another pundit. Dime a dozen.

The media loves covering Trump for the same reason they loved covering Palin: They can just point and say, "Hey, look at THAT!"

But they sure as hell don't want to be AROUND them, or their "people", aside from that.

bull shit.

You think like most lefties that Trump is a blowhard doofus and deserving of constant media criticism. This is your bias.

Now Hillary who has far more skeletons in her closet than all Americans pols combined, yet she gets little to no criticism in the lib MSM. Clearly this is evidence of liberal bias, but I don't expect you to see it.

'He's Not a Reporter - He's a Trump Advocate'
- Like CNN is not an advocate for anything and everything Liberal, Obama, and Hillary...


"Corey Lewandowski, Donald Trump’s ousted campaign manager, is off to a rocky start in his new position as a political commentator for CNN.

The news network scooped up the embattled former Trump operative just three days after the billionaire businessman’s campaign gave him the boot and, according to a Page Six report, some CNN staff members are ready to kick him out, too."

CNN is “facing a near internal revolt” over company President Jeff Zucker’s decision to offer Lewandowski a salaried position as an exclusive correspondent for the network.

“CNN is facing a near internal revolt over the Corey hiring,” an unnamed source, described by Page Six as a “TV insider,” said, adding that many in the newsroom are “livid.”

“Female reporters and producers especially,” the source added. “They are organizing and considering publicly demanding [that Lewandowski be let go].”


---------------------

Awwwww.....poor wittle biased, uber-partisan socialists are upset that someone NOT like them has been added to their ranks.

Now that's funny right there!




CNN Staff Revolting Over Network Decision to Hire Lewandowski, Report Says

So CNN hires Trumps ex-campaign manager and you think that proves that they are a liberal network with bias??? It's all about the ratings dude

 

[NYcarbineer]

Just an aside,

CNN hired Alisyn Camerota away from Fox and Friends, and as if by magic,

she stopped being conservative!

 

[Papageorgio]

Lewandowski is not a journalist...

Since he has a gag clause to stopping him speaking about anything against Trump, how can he be a contributor...

Why hire him? They are meant to be a news organization...

Is Paul Begula a journalist? Nope, but he is a contributor.

Get over it, turn it off when he is on and get over it.

No, I think I know how commercial media works. You make money from ratings, not from "political slants".

Prove me wrong.

Why hire Lewandowski? He's certainly not an expert in anything except ---- trolling.
Eureka.

Same reason they hired Glenn Beck --- to stir the shit.

 

[Pogo]

He's a dick. That to me would be reason enough not to want him around.

And that's exactly why CNN hired him. Dickishness sells. Look what it's done for Rump.

If there's opposition in-house it's gotta be from those still idealistic enough to want to be with a news organization rather than the Jerry Springer show.

 

[Slade3200]

I think this is all part of Trumps genius plan for world domination... Corey is one of the many trojan horses. Next thing you know, Manaforts gonna be your new milkman and Ivanka your new barista at the local coffee shop.

Not at all. I think the fact that CNN's staff losing their minds over a a non-assimilated' socialist liberal - especially an ex-Trump staff member - being hired proves that.

I don't know what CNN was expecting. From what I read he signed an agreement to NOT say anything negative about Trump so they won't be getting any negative remarks about Trump from him.

When I read about his hiring I immediately thought about the NFL. NFL teams sometimes hire a member of the practice squad or a recent ex-player from the team they are going to play the next Sunday. They do so to get as much information from them about their old team as possible. After that next game they are cut. That's what this guy's hiring is, and if you think he will be on CNN's staff after November, or after they think they have gotten as much as they can from him, you're wrong.

This was definitely NOT a 'permanent' hiring.

That Drumpf is unpredictable is hardly news.
