But no, the CNN anchor (one Ashleigh Banfield interviewing former Reagan White House administrator Jeffrey Lord) had none of those in mind.
Let's go to the videotape.
It goes without saying that this is not the first craziness to come out of CNN.... Where do they find these ditzes? Arutz Sheva has a reminder.
CNN is notorious for its anti-Israel coverage, most recently two weeks ago when the network posted a news article on its website in which Israel was literally wiped off the map.
The article, titled, "Beyond ISIS: 2016's scariest geopolitical hot spots," featured a graphic of the Middle East in which Israel is replaced with a red square marking the country of "Palestina."
One of the cable operators allegedly replaced CNN with Fox three years ago. Since I don't have cable (or television for that matter), I cannot confirm whether that it still correct.CNN also faced an online backlash last May after issuing a report claiming that "settlers" had uprooted 800 Palestinian-owned olive trees near Hevron - based purely on unverified allegations by Palestinian Authority-based outlets with questionable records on fact-checking themselves.
"No cable? No TV? How do you manage to know anything?"
ReplyDeleteHaven't lived in a house with a TV since 1978 or so. We, the televisionless, are a slowly growing number. I notice that for the most part we're better-informed.
