Tapper apparently was afraid the public would discover that the dossier is super partisan super fake news. What was "irresponsible" was for Tapper and CNN to use it in an attempt to smear and frame Trump.

I’ll give Tapper credit for one thing. CNN was supposedly approached by Steele directly in 2016, and they refused to run the story because they couldn’t confirm it.

Mustn’t let the rubes actually see the worthless POS.

They might realize it is a worthless POS.

Tapper was covering his tracks and CNN's culpability in this email. James Clapper briefed Tapper on the dossier, and CNN promoted the story before BuzzFeed published the dossier, then linked to the dossier immediately after it was published.

"uncollegial" is journo-speak for 'not knowing your place in the Prog pecking order'.

You want collusion? Here it is.

Tapper long lost his claim to the higher moral ground.
