Hopefully you all spared yourselves from watching what was truly an abomination — the CNN town hall with Donald Trump. What CNN did tonight was produce a global television event for an unhinged pathological liar in front of an audience of sycophants and called it “news.”
Here’s my reaction to the appalling spectacle. It was a mistake for CNN to host the town hall in the first place, as it is impossible to contain the former president’s lies. I also lay out the dangerous precedent this sets as we look ahead to 2024.
I will never watch CNN again, for any reason. They have forfeited their right to my attentiom.
We all should boycott CNN, and the companies that advertise on it.
CNN is probably the most watched news station in the world. What happened tonight is not only their disgrace, but a disgrace to every American. How can we claim to the world that Democracy is the only way when its news institutions are so corrupted?
