CNN host tells people which news outlet to watch if they want civility and 'decency' in coverage (Hint: NOT CNN) [video]

CNN’s Jim Acosta has in the past reminded President Trump that “we are real news” and defended his network and media coverage in general. However, the host of CNN’s “S.E. Cupp: Unfiltered” explained during a panel discussion where to get “decency” in news coverage, and it’s not on CNN (or many others):

Interesting stuff, especially coming from a CNN host.

Now we know for sure which side of the equation CNN is on. Their own reporter just said so herself

What’s Jim Acosta’s opinion about what Cupp said?

There is nothing wrong with honest, objective, insightful commentary on the news of the day. The problem is that we lack honest, objective, insightful commentators. Most of them are hacks (media calls them “strategists”) or Democratic Party operatives with press badges. https://t.co/Bt851ZkWeg
