CNN’s Brian Stelter claimed he was not familiar with the Steele dossier because he is a media reporter during an interview with conservative radio show host Hugh Hewitt.

“Brian, that’s a deflection. The primary subsource of the dossier was revealed last week to be a Russian agent investigated by the Obama Department of Justice in 2009 and ’10. The dossier is discredited. There was no collusion. These are factual matters. That’s my problem with Hoax,” Hewitt told his guest Monday, referring to Stelter’s new book, Hoax.
