‘Holding up a mirror’: Jack Dorsey blasts CNN and Brian Stelter for fake news

Former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey said he knows from personal experience that CNN promotes false news reporting.

Dorsey engaged in a series of tweets after CNN host Brian Stelter’s attempted to bash Fox News’s Tucker Carlson for “always selling the same thing” Monday night.

The former Twitter CEO, who still sits on the company’s board, blasted Stelter for tweeting that Carlson is “selling doubt,” asking, “And you all are selling hope?”

After MSNBC contributor Elizabeth Spiers came to Stelter’s defense arguing that truth is “hope-agnostic,” Miss Universe Iraq 2017 Sarah Idan joined the conversation.

“Even @CNN sometimes sell false news,” Idan tweeted. “I know this from covering Iraq events in 2019. People need to understand every media is prone to either mistakes or deliberate corruption. Do your own investigation before believing what they’re selling you.”

Dorsey affirmed Idan replying, “I know this from being on the streets of Ferguson during the protests and watching them try to create conflict and film it causing the protestors to chant ‘f*** CNN.’”


When a reporter questioned whether Dorsey was “defending” Fox News and Carlson, he replied, “Not defending a thing. Holding up a mirror.”
