MILO: CNN’s journalistic integrity has been called into question yet again as a new Wikileaks release reveals the news organization apparently sought input from the Democratic National Committee when developing questions for a Donald Trump interview with Wolfe Blitzer.
In an email titled ‘Trump Questions For CNN,’ DNC research director Lauren Dillon wrote:
Wolf Blitzer is interviewing Trump on Tues ahead of his foreign policy address on Wed.
Please send me thoughts by 10:30 AM tomorrow.
Thanks!
Kelly Roberts, another DNC staffer, responded to that email at 10:21 AM the next day with a series of questions from herself, Jeremy Brinster and Matthew Sarge.
Of course, those questions were all immaculately designed to make Trump’s scheduled interview with Wolf Blitzer an absolute PR disaster.
The questions themselves were interspersed with pieces of information, some dating as far back as 2000, that notably made Trump look unflattering.
Luckily for Trump, this interview was ultimately canceled.
Lauren Dillon’s final email in the thread reads:
CNN said the interview was cancelled as of now but will keep the questions for the next one 🙁
Good to have for others as well.
Nowhere in the thread does Dillon, or anyone else, mention who the DNC was in touch with at CNN.
OFF the cliff we go…
You are going to love living
in a 3rd world country.
This seems to be more of a bad reflection on CNN
than on the DNC, and even less of Clinton.
I don’t see it moving the needle much.
To the contrary, I’m hoping that the whole “spirit cooking” junk
has more of an impact on Christian voters of all stripes.
Can we please have at least the next 24 hours
FREE of EEYORE-like yammering
about how “all is lost!”?!?
I wonder how the press will be composed in Trump’s WH Pressroom? I would love to see people like Cernovich, folks from BB or reporters like Mark Dice seated. Let the wires like AP get their info from them. How delicious would that be? They and many more like them would accelerate the ending of the left dominated media’s stranglehold.
Sources of bias like the WaPo, NYT, Globe… would keep playing to a continuingly smaller & smaller circle jerk of sycophants. The alphabets share has more them been cut in half the past 20 years and viewership keeps dropping. Really who watches that shit anyway but people already brain dead?
MM, I’d imagined getting rid of the “press room”
(in reality, it’s only something like 15′ x 40′)
and having video conference-like events…
(sans CNN and such…)
Did Podesta bring enough Walnut Sauce for everybody?
Sooo… where’s the nukes from “Anonymous” & Assange?? All premature ejaculations (like I said before), it’s like they were working for the Clinton campaign. The leaks merely confirmed what we already knew but not much injury to the Clintons because their damage control teams (MSM) are just better. Praying Trump wins this!
I think that as Trump is a negotiator and is brilliant at it, he will attempt to bring the press to heal with a charm offensive. It may not be 100% effective, but look at what he has accomplished so far.
I know I drag it out much – but it is soooooooo apropos:
Gambling at Rick’s? (Perfidy at CNN?)
I’m shocked! Shocked, I tell you!
izlamo delenda est …
This “bombshell” is a nothing more than a mild popcorn fart.
We already know the media is corrupt.
We already know the administration is corrupt.
We already know the justice system is infiltrated.
What they don’t know is that the impact travels faster than the sound wave.
This might be news if it was the other way around. As it is, looks like SOP.
Why the Republicans agree to CNN debates, or even bother with that network is beyond incompetent.
You should know by know these people are setting traps every step of the way.
