It is dangerous to believe that “balanced journalism” gives equal weight to liars and to truth-tellers, to those intent on destroying democracy and those seeking to protect it, to the enablers of an ongoing attempted coup and those who are trying to prevent it.
Two Sundays ago, CNN’s Brian Stelter, host of the show Reliable Sources, put it well:
“It’s not partisan to stand up for decency and democracy and dialogue. It’s not partisan to stand up to demagogues. It’s required. It’s patriotic. We must make sure we don’t give platforms to those who are lying to our faces.”
Not incidentally, that was Stelter’s last show on CNN.

Just a few minutes ago he was disagreeing with the take that Biden was political last night, saying that Biden was arguing for democracy. Now he's gone too. I thought he did a great job the last few years in holding dump and his minions accountable.

New CNN boss fires Brian Stelter
And gets rid of Reliable Sources. I thought Stelter was great in his informed takes on the media and did a fantastic job in taking down repub BS. I'm sure that's why he's gone.

When CNN brought in Licht from the Colbert show I thought he would do a good job, based on his work there. Now it just looks like he is kowtowing the owner's marching orders and trying to be "fair and balanced" - meaning giving more air time to RW sources and viewpoints. After being embarrassed by Briana Keilar the other day they had that idiot Rep. Mike Turner on again with Tapper today. Seems like we're seeing more of asshats dump apologists like Alice Stewart and Scott Jennings too. Not a good sign for the future at CNN.
