This adds to Darcy's opinion piece this morning and includes a shot by Herr Licht at their media critic (who may get the door like Stelter did).

I dont know anyone who was happy with last night, one unnamed journalist told Vanity Fair. The mood is absolutely the lowest its been in the Licht tenure, and thats saying a lot.
Multiple CNN insiders also gave their reactions to Rolling Stone, calling the event appalling, just brutal, a fucking disgrace and 1000 percent a mistake. One questioned why the network would arrange a town hall that was stacked with his voters.
Michael Fanone, the former Washington police officer who was assaulted by rioters during the 2021 Capitol attack, now serves as an on-air contributor for CNN. He told HuffPost that he was upset by the broadcast.
Its worse than I could have ever imagined. Its an absolute disaster, he said. Theres no way to fact-check this guy in real time. Hes a volcano of bullshit.

(21,804 posts)So, your all star "pros" gave you one hell of a shitshow last night. In the long run, CNN lost, Trump lost, the moderator lost and America lost.
I guarantee I could get just as good a result for 1/2 the money, and I have never been on TV in my life.
