This is so yawnworthy it’s barely news: Big figure in the mainstream media backs another big figure in the mainstream media’s leftist political stance. Cue the shocked look on my face. It’s confirmation that CNN is exactly what you think it is.
CNN president Jeff Zucker told CNN New York staff today that he supported Piers Morgan’s decision to speak in favor of gun control, sources at the network tell POLITICO.
During a town-hall meeting with staff, Zucker was asked about CNN expressing opinion, something it has traditionally tried to avoid. Zucker said he was in favor of it where it was appropriate, citing Morgan’s stance on gun control as one example, sources said.
Does Zucker back Morgan getting curb stomped by Breitbart’s Ben Shapiro too? I’d back seeing that happen again.
Also, does Zucker back Morgan chuckling along when his guest propose murdering people with whom they disagree?
Once again, proof of why we are not going to be able to remain one people, for we are not one people anymore. If I could trust the other side to let things be, it would be different, but they never do. They are an Imperial power, always looking to dominate, and rather than one day risk total loss of all that I believe, I think prudence dictates a split while strength remains.
How appropriate would he find it, if the guy advocated against gun-control laws and argued that it was just jack-booted thuggery, hmm?
These guys never think about how it looks to the other side. They cannot imagine they could possibly be wrong. There is nothing more dangerous to other human beings than a man who thinks he cannot possibly be wrong.
Who cares?
I don’t.
Maybe the couple hundred thousand viewers of CNN?
Probably not.
We Americans love our guns. And who can blame us? Just try calling 911 and see how badly the local LEO’s give a crap. Unless you are in the act of shooting a perp they’ll get to you late every time. Think of LEO’s as historians. They take their notes in an attempt to make you think they’re going to do something about the transgressions you’ve just experienced – then drive off – never to be heard from again.
I’ve said it many times – rob a bank for a few hundred dollars and the LEO’s will hunt you down – as long as it takes – they never forget – never forgive. Rob a private home of thousands and what do they do? Pretty much nothing.
I’ve got a phone – and a gun. I’ll be using the phone – right after I put the gun away.
– 69 each other.
