This afternoon, CNN’s Chris Cillizza reminded us once again just how much of a masochist he is when he tweeted this in response to his colleague Brian Stelter complaining about Fox News mocking Brian Stelter for complaining about Fox News:
Does Fox News cover, you know, news? Or are they just a media criticism shop? https://t.co/qrB1tL3SeQ

Only a true glutton for punishment could go cruising for the kind of bruising that Chris Cillizza’s getting for that one.
And only a true thread master like Drew Holden could deliver the fatal blows:
@ChrisCillizza I’m…not confident that this is exclusively (or even primarily) a Fox News phenomenon. https://t.co/YxJqgJx61X pic.twitter.com/Ii73wNhEWK

Perhaps another network who does something similar may come to mind. pic.twitter.com/Td9mR0xKjp

All of these from @brianstelter are from *the last 36 hours* and comprise about half of his mentions of Fox News in that time. pic.twitter.com/CnckvJ6t96

All of these from @oliverdarcy are from the start of this month on. We’re only twelve days in. pic.twitter.com/CEhYfnrQ8t

@JohnJHarwood doesn’t even cover the media! These are all from the last ten days! pic.twitter.com/5U475lF6zf

And forget just the networks. @brianstelter has tweeted about Tucker Carlson *six times* in just the last three days. Here are some. pic.twitter.com/FmP9luftkt

And you know that Holden’s got lots more where that came from. But he also has a day job, so we’ll content ourselves with the thread as it is.
And we’re definitely always content to watch CNN get smacked around.
Another devastating thread for the hacks at CNN. https://t.co/FRUDq667ho

Would you enjoy seeing Chris Cillizza and his Dem Party disinformation network getting torn to shreds as much as I did? Thread: https://t.co/9yOvG7fNHR
