CNN has intentionally and repeatedly pushed propaganda, including war propaganda. But they seem perfectly OK with that, as Dave Smith points out.

And now, because CNN’s audience continues to shrink, and perhaps out of jealousy that so many people trust Joe Rogan, CNN has gone after Rogan.

Amazingly, CNN still has some dedicated followers: people who uncritically glue themselves to the tube and nod affirmatively. They are doing what many college students have done as they buy term papers from 3rd party providers. They are unwilling to do the hard work of sense-making, relying on a known corporate liar, one that brings lots of war hawks onto their shows to promote military involvement in the Ukraine, the latest alleged reason to spill American blood. This is pure insanity.

BTW, here is that video of Russell Brand imitating CNN’s Brian Stelter. While CNN raises a piss-storm about the “problem” with Joe Rogan, it simultaneously parades out warmongers to promote warmongering without disclosing their histories or conflicts of interest.
