Jonathan Turley calls out CNN's 'telling moment of dissonance' amid unrelenting anti-Trump coverage
Tapper fact-checked colleagues after McEnany criticism
By Brian Flood | Fox News
George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley praised CNN’s Jake Tapper Friday for fact-checking his colleague Jim Acosta, writing in a blistering column that the liberal network needs more of these moments if it wants to be seen again as “honest and objective."
“There was a telling moment of dissonance on CNN this week, a network that is now unrelenting in its negative and highly partisan coverage of the Administration,†Turley wrote.
“Acosta has been repeatedly called out for such bias and sent out a clearly misleading tweet bashing White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany. Meanwhile, CNN host Jake Tapper set the record straight in fairness to McEnany,†Turley wrote, noting that “it is often impossible to distinguish CNN hosts from advocates on their programs.â€
“I truly miss the old CNN. The loss to journalism is immense. Indeed, if anything, it may be driving people to Trump.â€
