CNN’s bias is now beyond laughable. Updated X 2

What’s most infuriating about CNN isn’t that hosts like Don Lemon and Chris Cuomo or ­reporters like Raju, Jim Acosta and Jim Sciutto have an agenda — it’s that they pretend they don’t.  David Harsanyi

CNN’s bias is now beyond laughable  "As Sen. Martha McSally (R-Ariz.) walked through the hallways of the Senate Thursday, CNN senior congressional correspondent Manu Raju asked her if the Senate should consider “new evidence as part of the impeachment trial.” McSally shot back: “Manu, you’re a liberal hack. I’m not talking to you.”

“ 'You’re not going to comment about this?” a dazed Raju asked. “You’re a liberal hack, buddy,” McSally replied as she walked away. Predictably, conservatives cheered, while mainstream media decried McSally’s move as unbecoming.
"Whatever your take, the interaction reflects three years of mounting frustration with an overtly partisan media, exemplified by CNN, which has dropped any pretense of fairness and become an organ of the Democratic Party.
"The problem isn’t that Raju asked the question — that’s his job, after all. It’s that virtually all questions posed by political reporters these days are framed to support the narratives and assumptions of one political party, the Democrats.
"CNN’s Jake Tapper, remarking on the incident, called Raju’s query reasonable, because it was “the question of the day.” Indeed, that’s the problem. Democrats are always dictating the “question of the day.' ” . . .

You only need to juxtapose the McSally brouhaha with Nancy ­Pelosi’s news conference this week to see how liberal journalistic malpractice works. Without any evidence, the House speaker accused Team Trump of sedition and criminality and claimed — again — that the 2016 presidential election had been stolen by Russians, knowing full well no one would really challenge her.

UPDATE: Sen. Martha McSally turns her meltdown at a reporter into fundraising stunt

"Hours after Arizona Republican Sen. Martha McSally berated a CNN reporter on live TV, her campaign was already attempting to raise money off of the exchange.

"For $35, McSally supporters can now buy tee shirts emblazoned with her comment.

"McSally, who lost her 2018 Senate race to Democratic Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, but was later appointed to fill the late Sen. John McCain's (R-AZ) vacant seat by Republican Gov. Doug Ducey, was asked by CNN's Manu Raju on Thursday if the Senate should consider new evidence in Donald Trump's impeachment trial.

" 'You're a liberal hack," she responded. "I’m not talking to you. You’re a liberal hack.' " . . .

McSally went on Fox News on Thursday night to brag about her comments to Raju. "[Reporters] run around trying to chase Republicans and ask trapping questions," she said. "I'm a fighter pilot, I call it like it is."

Update #2:  Pelosi Releases Limited-Edition Replica Of Dentures Worn During Trump Impeachment  . . . "The dentures have Pelosi's signature emblazoned in gold across the gums. Only 300 sets were made, so you'll need to jump on this opportunity to get this coveted souvenir from Trump's somber impeachment ceremony.

"The bidding starts at $1,000.00 per pair, with all proceeds going to help Dems campaign on impeachment. Excited Democrats began bidding on the dentures, driving the price up into the tens of thousands of dollars immediately. ""This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get a historic relic from this somber, very serious impeachment trial," Pelosi said in a speech". . .
