Veteran CNN Anchor to Exit Network After Morning Show Disaster

Veteran CNN host Poppy Harlow is leaving the struggling cable news network — two months after the cancellation of “CNN This Morning,” where a slew of on-air meltdowns had sparked last year’s ouster of Don Lemon.

CNN boss Mark Thompson told staffers of Harlow’s departure during CNN’s 9 a.m. editorial call Friday — and Harlow confirmed her exit in an email to colleagues.

“When I walked in the door at CNN in 2008, I was 25 years old and had never been on live TV. Green is an understatement!” Harlow wrote in the email, which was first reported by Vanity Fair.

“I grew up here: as a journalist and as a person.”

Harlow, 41, thanked Thompson, as well as Amy Entelis — the executive vice president for talent, CNN originals, and creative development — writing that the two have “been wonderful and have given me the space to make this decision.” (Read more from “Veteran CNN Anchor to Exit Network After Morning Show Disaster” HERE)

Did CNN Really Just Say This About OJ Simpson?

CNN continues to promote division in the United States and encourage anti-whiteness, starting with the network saying shocking things about the death of OJ Simpson.

CNN contributor Ashley Allison tried to justify Simpson’s acquittal by pulling the race card.

The former Obama administration sparked outrage after claiming that OJ Simpson “represented something for the black community— particularly because there were two white people who had been killed.”

Allison admitted that she cheered and was happy to find out that Simpson was going to walk free after allegedly killing his wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman.

“And the history around how black people had been persecuted during slavery. There were just so many layers,” she continued. “And I guess I’ll just close with this. There was racial tension then, there is racial tension now. It might not be the backdrop of the Trump campaign, but until this country is ready to actually have an honest conversation about the racial dynamics from our origin story until today, we will always have moments like O.J. Simpson that manifest, and our country will always be divided if we don’t actually deal with the issue of race.”

CNN Refuses to Air State of the Union Ad Blaming Biden for Murder of Laken Riley (VIDEO)

CNN refused to air a conservative group’s State of the Union ad that blamed President Joe Biden for the murder of 22-year-old Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, who was killed by an illegal immigrant.

Building America’s Future said Friday that major media networks, including Fox News, MSNBC, and Newsmax, all accepted the ad. CNN ultimately rejected it, however.

“CNN and Joe Biden are in lockstep once again: they won’t even #sayhername,” Building America’s Future advisor Phil Cox said in a statement provided to National Review.

“It is shameful that CNN is censoring the truth and trying to protect President Biden by refusing to air this ad,” Cox added. “The American people understand that Biden’s open borders agenda is responsible for the death of Laken Riley. Building America’s Future won’t be deterred when it comes to the important work of informing the public on how we are all less safe in Joe Biden’s America.”

The news was first shared by Fox News commentator Guy Benson on X: “I am told that CNN is refusing to air this. They ran out the clock on a pre-SOTU ad buy — then rejected it, calling several of its claims unsubstantiated. Fox and MSNBC aired it.”

In response to National Review’s request for comment, a CNN spokesperson confirmed that the ad failed to meet the network’s commercial clearance guidelines and policies because its claims were unsubstantiated.

Nikki Haley: ‘I Am Going to Beat President Trump’ (VIDEO)

Republican presidential candidate former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC) said Monday on CNN’s “The Lead” that she will beat former President Donald Trump for the party nomination.

Anchor Jake Tapper said, “So obviously you’re running in South Carolina and you’ve told me that you plan to be around well obviously you want to be the nominee and then the president, but, but you’re going to be around at least until super Tuesday. If the unthinkable happens in your view and you do not win will it be difficult to Support Trump as the Republican Party’s nominee, given what you think about him quite obviously.”

Haley said, “Well, first, I think that you need to know that I am going to beat President Trump. But you should ask him if it’ll be difficult for him to support me?” (Read more from “Nikki Haley: ‘I Am Going to Beat President Trump’” HERE)

WATCH: CNN Suddenly Cuts to Commercial Break as Wolf Blitzer Looks Like He’s About to Vomit

CNN swiftly cut to a commercial break after anchor Wolf Blitzer looked like he was about to vomit during an interview with House Oversight Committee Ranking Member Jamie Raskin on Thursday.

As Raskin (D-Md.) talked about the dispute in Colorado over Donald Trump appearing on the ballot, Blitzer made a series of pained expressions as he seemingly tried to stifle himself from getting sick on air.

Nearly a full minute after seemingly silently retching, CNN cut Blitzer’s feed, leaving Raskin full screen to finish his remarks, at which point vomit-like sounds could be heard.

CNN then abruptly played a commercial, cutting Raskin off mid-sentence, in a snafu earlier reported on by Mediaite.

When the segment came back after the brief break, CNN’s chief legal affairs correspondent Paula Reid appeared in Blitzer’s place in front of the “The Situation Room” backdrop.

CNN Claims Trump Utilizes ‘Threat of Violence’ for Support

In a recent appearance on “News Central,” CNN national security analyst Juliette Kayyem alleged former President Donald Trump is employing the “threat of violence” as a strategic tool to galvanize support from his followers.

Kayyem remarked, “It’s about to be 2024. We are running into an election period in which violence and the threat of violence are sort of viewed as an extension of our normal democratic differences. This is one of the successes of what Donald Trump has been able to do, is to sort of be kind of casual about violence.”

She falsely claimed that Trump, potentially the lead candidate for the GOP nomination, is openly utilizing language and threats of violence to rally his supporters. The CNN analyst further claimed:

“There’s two things. I don’t know how to say it louder, just like everyone needs to brace for this year, 2024 is going to be a year in which elections and the threat of violence overhangs this election for two reasons. One is Trump is not hiding it. I don’t need to pretend both sides here. Potentially, the lead candidate for the GOP, who’s going to get the nomination, is utilizing language and violence in the threat of violence as a way to rally his people to get support, and his party is sort of ignoring it. They’re not condemning it. I think that, then, creates an atmosphere in which violence becomes more permissive.”

‘You Don’t See Israeli Soldiers Raping Palestinian Women’: CNN Host Clashes With Dem Congresswoman on Hamas

CNN host Dana Bash hit back against Democratic Rep. Pramila Jayapal of Washington Sunday on the issue of sexual violence against women by Hamas.

“I’ve seen a lot of Progressive women. Generally speaking, they’re quick to defend women’s rights and to speak out against using rape as a weapon of war, but downright silent on what we saw on Oct. 7 and what might be happening inside Gaza right now to these hostages,” Bash told Jayapal in an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union.”

“I already answered your question, Dana,” Jayapal said. “I said it’s horrific, and I think that rape is horrific. Sexual assault is horrific. I think that it happens in war situations. Terrorist organizations like Hamas obviously are using these as tools. However, I think we have to be balanced about bringing in the outrages against Palestinians. Fifteen thousand Palestinians have been killed in Israeli air strikes, three-quarters of whom are women and children.” (Read more from “‘You Don’t See Israeli Soldiers Raping Palestinian Women’: CNN Host Clashes With Dem Congresswoman on Hamas” HERE)

CNN Uses Misleading Data to Push Gun Control After Mass Shooting

Another mass shooting means another opportunity for Democrats to push their radical gun control agenda, in which they claim it is the guns that kill people.

On Wednesday, after a mass shooting in Lewistown, Maine, CNN highlighted misleading data that killed at least 22 people.

The Left-wing outlet claimed that there have been 525 “mass shootings” in 2023, adding that the Maine shootings contributed “to a list of 565 reported across the United States this year, according to the Gun Violence Archive.”

However, as pointed out by Breitbart News, data from the Gun Violence Archive is conducted by changing the definition of a “mass shooting.” Therefore, shootings caused by drive-by incidents, double or triple homicides, gang violence, and other related crimes are counted as “mass shootings,” leading to skewed data.

According to the Gun Violence Archive, incidents where a “minimum of four victims shot, either injured or killed, not including any shooter who may also have been killed or injured in the incident” are considered “mass shootings.” (Read more from “CNN Uses Misleading Data to Push Gun Control After Mass Shooting” HERE)

Former Israeli PM Scolds CNN for Echoing Hamas on Hospital Attack: ‘Do Your Job, Not Everything Has Two Sides’

Israel’s former prime minister Natftali Bennett scolded the media for appearing to take sides in their reports on the Gaza hospital strike, while appearing on CNN on Wednesday.

“There are no two sides to this hospital [attack]. Either it was bombed by Israel, or it was targeted by someone else on the Palestinian side,” Bennett said to host Anderson Cooper.

“If two people come and say — one says it’s raining outside and the other says it’s dry, you don’t bring the quotes of both sides. You just G–d—n open the window and look whether it’s raining or not. That’s what we did and this hospital, in fact, it’s a parking lot, was hit definitely, 100% by Islamic Jihad barrage,” he bluntly remarked.

The Israeli politician said three different videos, from various angles, and ballistics confirmed that Israel was not responsible. He also said they had intercepted radio messages from two Hamas terrorists saying Islamic Jihad was responsible for the attack. . .

“So, Anderson, with all due respect there aren’t two sides to this. Not everything is two sides, and I have a feeling that if it wasn’t the state of Israel then I think the global media would have behaved very differently,” he stated.

‘Would You Give This Grandpa a High-Stress Job for Six More Years?’: CNN Host Jones Mocks Biden (VIDEO)

CNN’s Van Jones on Thursday mocked President Joe Biden over his age after a new CNN poll revealed nearly 50% of voters would prefer any presidential nominee over Biden.

Forty-six percent of voters said they would prefer any Republican nominee over Biden, with hypothetical matchups showing former South Carolina Gov and GOP candidate Nikki Haley beating the president, according to the CNN poll conducted by SSRS. Among those polled, 58% said Biden’s policies have worsened economic conditions and 70% said things in the nation are going badly. Thirty-three percent of those polled described Biden as someone they’re proud to have as president.

The poll also found 49% of Democrats are concerned about Biden’s age. . .

“I think a lot of Democrats look at these numbers and say the whispers are finally showing up in this data,” Jones said. “People are talking behind their hand. They worry about Joe Biden. Joe Biden is that grandpa that you love, that you believe in, you owe a lot — but you start to wonder, you know, would you give this grandpa a high-stress job for six more years, or would you want something else for him?”

“That’s what’s being talked about,” Jones continued. “People are scared to say anything about it, but I think it’s important for us to have this conversation now. I think it’s maybe the bottom for Joe Biden. He may go up as the economy improves, but right now, the economy is getting better and fears about the economy are getting worse. We’ve got to be honest as Democrats that there is real pain out there at the base of our party. People still don’t feel these policies yet. And we have to make the case stronger. We can’t just say, ‘Hey, don’t worry about it.’ We have to make a stronger case for the help that’s on the way than we have so far.”
