CNN is opposed to disinformation, they say. Brian Stelter wants conservative networks taken down because they accuse them of disinformation. Yet CNN is a fount of disinformation. They are professional smear merchants who think it’s okay as long as they’re smearing their perceived enemies.
General Michael Flynn’s brother and sister-in-law, Jack and Leslie Flynn are having none of it. They filed a lawsuit for $75 million in New York City this week, arguing that CNN used a deceptively-edited video in September misportraying them.
According to The Daily Beast, they are accusing CNN of defamation and invasion of privacy for falsely claiming they are QAnon followers in a segment entitled, “CNN Goes Inside A Gathering Of QANON Followers.”
It would be great to see a big win in this case. Someone needs to rein in the smear merchants. Hopefully, the courts will.
At the same time, Project Veritas is moving ahead with a defamation lawsuit against the NY Times, who lied about them in two articles.
