After kicking to the curb such greats as Brian Stelter and Chris Cillizza and Don Lemon, we'd thought CNN was crazy getting rid of such talent. The good news is, they're promoting from within. When I saw this tweet from CNN Communications, my first thought was to check Glenn Greenwald's timeline, as I believe he's the one who coined the "Fusion Natasha" Bertrand name. Greenwald has long accused Bertrand of doing little but transcribing CIA press releases. But now CNN has promoted her to correspondent.
CNN’s @NatashaBertrand has been promoted to correspondent where she will continue to cover national security and politics across CNN’s platforms. Congratulations, Natasha! https://t.co/vTkxntheoP pic.twitter.com/RPsTzMECKs

Glad to see Fusion Natasha failing upward.

She should be in prison.
Quite a step-up from Russian Disinformation Czar. Congrats!

She's the piece de resistance of your utterly garbage lineup. pic.twitter.com/iBkR2I2jOU

The intelligence community's favorite typist!

Stunning and brave
Never forget that Natasha "Fusion GPS" Bertrand funneled the Russia Collusion lie into print and also was the author of the disinformation op claiming America's intel experts said Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian. CNN now rewarding her for her propaganda with a promotion. https://t.co/BM4vPruFNk

Nobody in corporate media has spread more lies than this individual.
— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) February 13, 2024
Among many examples, she was the first to ratify the CIA lie that docs from Hunter’s laptop was “Russian disinformation.”
The more one lies for the US Security State, the more promoted they will be. https://t.co/SU0pTQ8CbX
Natasha Bertrand’s lies during Trump and Russiagate are too numerous to list in one place.
— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) February 13, 2024
But they are abundant. Her job is to messages from CIA and mindlessly repeat them.
Since that’s an asset in corporate media, her promotion is well-earned!👇https://t.co/9ZbKlTRKsm pic.twitter.com/of1PQzkTwE
If you serve as a faithful propaganda officer for the intelligence regime, your efforts will be rewarded with high-salaried positions at state-controlled media cutouts.

She has lied her way far up the ladder at CNN, which shows very clearly what that network values.
— DiscoMephisto (@DiscoMephisto) February 13, 2024
CNN has now closed replies to the announcement.
Yes. She is an abomination. There really is no other word for her purposeful treachery.

CNN routinely hires political operatives and calls them journalists. #CNNisNotNews

The more disinformation you put into circulation, the higher CNN promotes you https://t.co/8wwOufu86R

It's not surprising that CNN turned off the replies to such an innocuous tweet.
In the meantime, I'm hearing that Catherine Herridge has been fired by CBS.
The mainstream media is gearing up big-time for the 2024 election — gotta keep that disinformation from spreading.
