One of the things that is so ironic about the liberal media push to attack Joe Rogan for “misinformation” is that they are such purveyors of it, they have no standing to attack anyone else. Rogan is not always right, but when he’s wrong, he apologizes for it and corrects it. That’s something that you don’t see from liberal media; we’re still waiting for the apology for how they divided the country over Russian collusion. Rogan is also not pushing a narrative, he’s just looking to ask questions and search for the truth. Meanwhile, CNN is always trying to push their political narrative on you — that takes priority over the truth.
Brian Stelter said that because “Joe Rogan is winging it,” people have stopped trusting “real newsrooms.” So he’s whining this is why people aren’t watching him and the rest of CNN — one of “the real newsrooms.”
Russell Brand came up with a funny take.

Not only does he have Stelter’s voice down, but he captures the whole attitude Stelter exudes.
Greenwald posted the full, Brand video, and noted how it already has more views than Stelter has viewers — which is why CNN is so terrified of independent voices who are not beholden to the narrative.
Note that Brand’s video has already been watched by 1.1. million people — far bigger than Stelter’s audience and double CNN’s prime-time shows. Do you see why they’re so desperate: smearing everyone independent as “far-right” conspiracy theorists and begging for mass censorship?

Now if CNN over the past several years under CEO Jeff Zucker had been more concerned about news reporting and the truth, than pushing the liberal narrative of the day, people might trust them and their ratings wouldn’t be in the basement. It may also help to avoid scandals.
But take Brian Stelter, the subject of Brand’s lampooning.
Radar first broke the news about Zucker’s affair with Allison Gollust before any other media. Radar covered the story Jan. 4 citing several sources.

As we later found out, it was an “open secret” at CNN for years, according to people connected with the network. Stelter, however, attacked Radar in his newsletter the day before Radar published that story.

Fox News
“They post something nutty; they claim to have multiple sources, but they don’t check with the subject at all; and they aren’t swayed by reality,” Stelter wrote of Radar Online the day before it reported the news of Zucker’s relationship with Gollust.
“Ordinary users end up reading, sharing and sometimes believing a lie without realizing the original story was garbage. Radar gains page views but loses nothing, because it has to be credible. Sad,” Stelter added. He took issue with a Radar report that CNN wouldn’t invite Andy Cohen back to co-host its New Year’s Eve coverage after his drunken performance.
According to Radar, Stelter’s attack came after Radar had contacted Zucker and Gollust for comment, telling them they would be publishing the story the next day.
So, Radar’s Ryan Naumann is asking, “Did Jeff Zucker order one of his prized on-air talents to trash Radar?”
An earlier article I wrote about Stelter’s comments that Stelter as the reporter on media should be fired for failing to report on the scandal. He claimed that he was attacking Fox from his high horse while not reporting what was happening at CNN. This added to the feeling that CNN is in turmoil.
Stelter’s failure to complete his job was a reason for me. But this latest report puts him right in the middle of the Zucker-Gollust scandal if he was working as an ‘attack dog’ for Zucker in going after Radar, to obscure the truth. That’s a big problem. CNN is prone to more dishonesty, conflicts, and deceit. The new CNN employees might have more to do here.
So, can we ask Brian again why people don’t trust him and CNN? Brand seems to have hit the nail on the head. The latest information may be just what you need to roast your tater.
