Brian Stelter trips over CNN in rush to help WaPo writer point out 'there's an entire cable network devoted to filling your evenings with terror'

We know this might shock you, but CNN’s Brian Stelter has shared another observation that has everything to do with Fox News and nothing to do with self-awareness:

I wish this was an overstatement, by @paulwaldman1, but it's not.

"If you're a Republican, there's an entire cable network devoted to filling your evenings with terror." https://t.co/uEmhi5PZn1

And there are several devoted to filling your evenings with Democrat talking points.

"Also, Trump's secret police are going to steal the election and you're all going to die from coronavirus." https://t.co/8wc989jdQk

And the Left has dozens. Your point? https://t.co/e01dgaumZ2

How does he not watch his own network?

Everyone at CNN watches Fox.

— Eric Spencer (@JustEric) July 25, 2020

And it shows up in Fox News’ ratings.

— If you're a Democrat, there are several.

Fear sells.

24/7 Coronavirus fear mongering network has thoughts about scaring the shit out of cable news viewers. https://t.co/MuvuJA6uCk

Stelter’s obviously too preoccupied watching Fox News to notice what’s being said on his own cable net.

The notion that the other news networks aren't pushing insane panic mongering is, frankly, laughable. Cue video of panelists talking about Trump's coup over not accepting election results. https://t.co/7gAKC1CRI6

The level of projection is overwhelming.

It's especially hilarious coming from him.https://t.co/QoSVXFzOTp

If you're a Democrat, there's two cable news networks, three major networks, PBS, the vast majority of newspapers, academia, the motion picture industry. . . https://t.co/8TGQt5Dwh8

Maybe the country doesn’t need a lecture about responsible reporting from a newspaper and cable news outlet that both recently settled defamation lawsuits from Nick Sandmann.
