The latest indication that anyone who is looking for genuine facts should look anywhere but CNN comes from the revelation that former CNN top dog Jeff Zucker was so full of hatred for Donald Trump and his followers that he ordered his hapless staff not to look into the theory that COVID-19 originated from a lab leak...

[PJMedia.com] It has been clear for a long time that CNN is not actually a news organization but a far-Left propaganda outlet disseminating the views of the Democrat Party leadership. Nonetheless, it continues with a straight face to call itself "the most trusted name in news," despite the mounting evidence that anyone who actually trusts it is either terminally naïve or indefatigably Maoist.
