As you know, a certain cable "news" network again earned the nickname "DNCNN" when they went above and beyond the call of hack journalism duty to help the Democrats spread smears and lies about Trump aide Natalie Harp.
CNN even brought on Harp's estranged brother, who has absolutely no firsthand knowledge about anything related to his sister's job or Trump's White House, in order to further Democrat narratives.
CNN of course is now trying to make Natalie Harp a story they can use to bash Trump.

They've brought her brother in to help do it.
Erin Burnett is trying her best to get usable soundbites out of him, but he's spaced out and she's having some trouble. pic.twitter.com/8cfigCPa3r
We got a contact buzz just looking at that guy.
The great @WesternLensman did a breakdown of what was happening in that clip, and actual "journalism" ain't it:

Examining what CNN and Erin Burnett did here in a little detail:
> Used a Democrat campaign oppo one-liner designed as a smear against a female Trump staffer as a pretext to drum up scandal
> Searched out family members to find someone with oppositional views to Natalie Harp and Trump
> Found brother who fits the bill, brought him on air
> Pressed and prompted him to repeatedly to bash his own sister and create usable material to ramp up the "scandal," which was challenging in that the guy seemed baked out of his mind
> Maintain this is "journalism" and not tabloid trash Again, this entire narrative is contrived from a baseless smear by a Democrat Senate candidate.
CNN was just happy to take the ball and run with it. This is the same organization that has been silent on their anchors' Fauci revelations for weeks.
More bottom of the barrel stuff from this trash "news" network.
But, is anyone really surprised?

It's not surprising considering the source, but it's still incredibly disgusting.
You mean exactly following Pelosi strategy? https://t.co/n18hlt9jkB

Sounds like CNN was shooting for the wrap up smear but failed.

Calling CNN garbage might even be an insult to garbage.
