Hunter Biden is creating a spectacle? The horrors. And then who do they go to for comment on this spectacle? Jim Jordan. He is appalled that Hunter is not complying.
As if that's not bad enough, the reporter did not ask him about his hypocrisy when he refused to comply, and neither did the other reporter, or the anchors when they returned to the studio. Really jaw dropping.
I have noticed before that when CNN has one of their oh-so-imprtant and riveting Repug townhalls scheduled they go even more rightwing on that day. They are desperate to attract MAGA eyeballs and show that they are "fair."
I'd like to see what their ratings are for these never ending staged townhalls and debates.

I could have misheard, but that's what it sounded like .

(19,526 posts)I was listening for it. Of course I could be wrong, but I still think that the reporter interviewing him live had a duty to ask that question and let us hear the answer.

(1,445 posts)the removal of these pathetic interviewers publicly. Might cause some tension since they take marching orders and their jobs might get stressed.

(3,225 posts)...they gave that "town hall" to T**** back in May, the day after he was found liable of sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll. They proceeded to give him basically an hour of free airtime to slander her all over again, and that is unforgivable. Then Anderson Cooper had the gall to reprimand the viewers for being upset. Something about silos???

Profits via "horse-race" journalism are handy, but power, political and economic, is the true coin of the US media realm.
I miss newspapers.
