Mainstream scream: CNN’s Piers Morgan calls Clinton critics ‘misogynists’

Our weekly look at the loudest screech from the mainstream media features CNN’s Piers Morgan slapping down critics of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

He said: “I’m getting a little bit weary, I’ll be honest with you, with the relentless attacks – first on [United Nations Ambassador] Susan Rice and now on Hillary Clinton. There’s a whisper of misogyny to it, I think, and it’s getting pretty, I think, incestuous and very Washington-orientated rather than in the national interest of America.”

Media Research Center Vice President of Research Brent Baker explains our pick: “If you don’t agree with him on gun control, he ridicules you as ‘stupid,’ and if you dare to hold the Obama administration accountable on Benghazi, he slurs you as a ‘misogynist.’ And Morgan, a British citizen, is appalled some Americans want him deported for abusing his position on CNN to belittle Americans.”

Rating: Four out of five screams.
