CNN Hires Two Former Weekly Standard Writers in D.C. Office

Breitbart: Two former writers for the Weekly Standard, the Never Trump magazine that shut down last month, have found homes at CNN’s Washington, D.C. office.

“We are excited to announce @MichaelRWarren & @HolmesLybrand will be joining the @CNN Washington Bureau,” CNN announced Monday in a tweet.

Michael Warren held the position of senior writer at the Standard while Holmes Lybrand was a fact-checker.

The Weekly Standard was shut down in December by parent company Clarity Media Group. The magazine, once an influential voice for conservative readers, went fully anti-Trump during the 2016 election and in its aftermath.

President Trump hit the Standard following the shutdown, saying in a tweet, “The pathetic and dishonest Weekly Standard, run by failed prognosticator Bill Kristol (who, like many others, never had a clue), is flat broke and out of business. Too bad. May it rest in peace!”  more here

  1. Well knock me down and steal my teeth!

    Ya’ mean some of the “conservatives” at some of the “conservative” magazines, are kinda plastic and flexible in their worldview?

  2. @cato,
    picture someone dumb as a box of rocks (Alessandra Cotexio) whom they prop in a corner to nod their head up and down all day long chanting: “Yup, that’s not no way fake news. No sir.”
