CNN left a pretty important detail out of their tweet about Andrew McCabe's rejected DOJ appeal

As Twitchy told you earlier, the Justice Department has rejected Andrew McCabe’s appeal to avoid criminal charges. CNN was on it … well, sort of:

They seem to have left something out of that tweet … can you figure out what it is?

Can you remind us where he works now?

CNN covering Andrew McCabe like they’ve never heard of him and don’t currently employ him is the best Twitter today. https://t.co/y0I9qb6z3O

Now, to be fair, the CNN article does mention that “McCabe is a CNN contributor.” At the very, very end. Wonder why they’d try to bury that.

I wonder why @brianstelter isn’t covering this breaking story.

I mean, this is his job as the media’s janitor.
