Media's Credibility Crisis: From ABC to CNN's Syrian Blunder
My friends, this has not been a good year for the media.
Over the weekend, it was reported that ABC News agreed to pay Donald Trump $15 million as part of a settlement in a defamation case.
The ladies on The View reportedly had to make 4 ‘legal notes’ in just one episode where they went scorched earth on some of Trump’s cabinet picks.
And now it seems that a Syrian prisoner CNN helped free was actually a torturer for Bashar al-Assad’s regime.
According to The New York Post, CNN journalist Clarissa Ward helped lead a “seemingly innocent” man out of a Syrian prison.
But according to an independent report, the man was actually Salama Mohammad Salama, an alleged war criminal.
The symbolism is profound on this one, my friends.
