CNN star slams own network for taking Trump's remarks out of context

  UK Daily Mail   "CNN pundit Scott Jennings accused the network of allowing comments by Donald Trump to repeatedly be taken out of context to stoke fear and anger.

"The senior political commentator argued CNN has let the Kamala Harris mischaracterize comments by Trump in a way that is 'designed to radicalize' his critics.

"Jennings made the comments during a panel the day after an apparent second assassination on the former Republican president, who has claimed rhetoric by Democrats is putting him in danger.

"The pundit said that Trump's comments that 'there will be a bloodbath' in the economy if he loses the election are an example of how the left has misconstrued his comments to stoke fear.

"Multiple Trump critics ignored the fact that Trump was talking about a potential economic bloodbath and have claimed he was instead warning of violence erupting on America's streets. 

"'It is said by every Democrat working for or around [Harris’] campaign every day on this network and every other one,' Jennings said.  'The bloodbath thing is stated every single day.'. . .


ABC’s David Muir takes hit to ratings after performance as debate moderator (msn.com)   . . . "A
BC News's David Muir experienced a decline in ratings in his flagship show after his controversial performance as one of the moderators of the presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.

"Muir was a debate moderator alongside Linsey Davis, frequently fact-checking Trump while failing to do so for Harris. Muir was criticized for disputing the former president's claim that crime was going up by countering with incomplete data and questioning whether he was being sarcastic or not in a previous interview. The flak Muir took from the experience appears to have taken a toll on his ratings." . . .

Davis admitted the network wouldn’t be like CNN, where a Biden meltdown led to him quitting the race. We learned of Harris’ serial lying during this event only after the cameras were off.
