This week’s Liberal Media Scream features CNN’s promotion of host Jake Tapper’s special, “All the President’s Lies.”
On Sunday, CNN Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter wondered to Tapper: “Do you think journalists are going to look back years from now and regret not doing even more to speak out about this lying and deceit?”
Stelter added: “Clearly, this prime time special is a way to address how ridiculous it’s gotten.”
Tapper said, “I think some journalists will.”

Media Research Center Vice President of Research Brent Baker explains our weekly pick: “It’s astounding — that in a media environment where 90% of evaluative comments about President Trump on broadcast news top 90% negative, two cable channels devote 24 hours a day to deriding Trump, and Stelter dedicates his show every week to besmirching any media figures favorable toward Trump — that he could still see a world of journalists lacking adequate disdain toward Trump.”
Rating: Three out of five screams.
