A Jake Tapper Producer Is the Next Pedophile Shoe to Drop at CNN – Opinion

RedState first reported this week that another CNN employee was found grooming teenage girls. This was in addition to the earlier revelations that John Griffin, a Chris Cuomo producer, had been charged with raping and grooming another child.

It is now clear who this second employee really is. His name is allegedly Rick Saleeby, and he’s a producer for Jake Tapper’s show. The man’s identity was released by Project Veritas last night, after a source went to the investigative reporting group out of fear no action would otherwise be taken by the authorities or CNN.

This per Project Veritas’ website.

There have been many requests from other journalists and media outlets to name the subject in Wednesday’s tragic story involving a CNN producer.

Project Veritas made it clear that the safety of the loved ones involved was paramount before releasing the name., Rick Saleeby.

Project Veritas revealed the truth. The mother of one of the children was able to release a statement in thanks.

It was my pleasure to write to you to express my gratitude. I am very grateful toward you guys and everything you’ve done for me and my children. Although the world may have been turned upside down, it doesn’t mean that anything is lost. All of us are safe. I’m hoping, praying, and pushing for charges to be brought against him, so he can never do this to another child/family again.

The public, as well predators, should know that I will protect their babies to the very end. He is a terrible predator and I’m so grateful to you all for saving us.

In spite of the challenges ahead, I’m going to keep my gratitude for you guys and the woman who provided the information. All this will be overcome by gratitude. Please accept my sincere gratitude and Merry Christmas.

I won’t describe the text messages in question, as they are graphic and it’s simply not necessary. They are disgusting and, given the one text that allegedly contained an offer for money to exchange nude photos of minors, almost certain criminal. Project Veritas also claims they have audio recordings from Saleeby. The transcript was released. But again, I won’t quote it here for obvious reasons.

CNN did not comment on the matter as of writing. It does not appear that any other mainstream media outlet has reported on it yet. I also checked Jake Tapper’s Twitter feed. His latest tweetsInclude complaints against Donald Trump and talk about January 6, 2017. The allegations against the producer of Trump are not mentioned.

CNN is going to take the necessary steps? We’ll have to wait and see. One thing that I do know, however is that the liberal news network needs to spend less time complaining about Fox News and focus more on its own home. There is clearly something seriously wrong at CNN. It requires action. Not distraction and obfuscation.
