Oh My: Project Veritas Posts Sting Video of CNN Supervising Producer Admitting CNN Has No Evidence of Russian Conclusion, But Zucker Has Mandated They Cover Russia Around the Clock for Ratings
He didn't actually link those last two things, but he did say CNN's CEO (which Project Veritas identifies as Jeff Zucker) "gave" CNN a day and a half of coverage of the Paris Accords, and then said "Let's get back to Russia." And the producer admits that the reason CNN talks about little but Russia -- despite having no evidence about "collusion," and despite the story being "mostly bullshit" at the moment -- is "ratings."
Project Veritas says this is Part 1, and more will be coming.
Two videos below: a highlights teaser they posted on Twitter, and then their fuller Part 1 video.
Update: Unexpectedly, Trump gloated on Twitter.
