CNN’s Brian Stelter is the network’s lead media reporter, but the way he talks makes you think that the American media is trapped in a right-wing echo chamber. He actually cites the coverage of the raid at Mar-a-Lago, which the American media will hardly call a raid. What is he watching? Not CNN, apparently. Watch: […]

When the raid at Mar-a-Lago was revealed, the questions were plentiful and there are plenty of reasonable ways to ask them.  Unfortunately, the usual suspects on cable news have reverted back to 2017, asking if former President Donald Trump is a foreign asset who will doom America and clamoring for the former president to be […]
