This is a must-read thread from Stephen Miller — a.k.a. @Redsteeze — where he rips into CNN for putting Richard Spencer on the air yesterday. Stick around to the end where he slaps Brian Stelter around for all of a sudden embracing “gray” areas in reporting.
THREAD ==>
You gave a platform to a literal Nazi on your show yesterday. It’s a big mystery this one. https://t.co/8Yk9XXJ0gb

“People seem emboldened to attack Jews lately. Wonder why that is. Over to you Richard Spencer…”

Let’s put it this way – as Tapper & Stelter defend giving Spencer a platform because of context or something. Pretend you’re walking through or sitting at an airport without sound. This is what you see pic.twitter.com/KdqIXBWaqg

Spencer being presented in studio with CNN’s official branding & graphics. But sure guys, you’re super concerned about anti-Semitic attacks in New York City.

And remember this is the network who went out of their way to deplatform Alex Jones, so don’t feed us this bullshit that you believe letting them speak & giving them a mic is about robust contextual debate. No one believes you on that one guys.

“The media’s janitor strikes again”:
This was Stelter’s excuse. Again, the same people who thought the gay frog guy was an imminent threat to social media everywhere and had to be deplatformed. It doesn’t square. The media’s janitor strikes again. pic.twitter.com/b1zRsG0BTH

So for the past two years or so, we were subjected to CNN’s insufferable ad campaign of #FactsFirst and something that’s an apple can’t be a banana. Or whatever. But, all of a sudden, the black and whiteness of apples and bananas is “gray” when it affects CNN? Nice try.
