Brave CNN talking head admits on Avenatti, ‘‘I feel kind of snookered because I took him seriously’
American Thinker ^ | 2/16/2020 | Thomas Lifson

So far, only one prominent MSM television pundit has passed the test of basic integrity that the guilty verdict against Michael Avenatti poses for his former fanboys and fangirls on CNN, MSNBC, and the alphabet networks. Jeffrey Toobin, CNN’s legal analyst, admitted to Anderson Cooper, who uttered not a peep of his own personal regret. The entire five and a half minute interview and transcript are embedded below, but go to 3 minutes and 46 seconds to see Toobin admit, “And frankly, you know, I feel kind of snookered, because I took him seriously,’ followed shortly thereafter by Cooper seeming to defend the coverage, stating,

“Well, I mean he was -- I mean, prior to even this Stormy Daniels story, he had won a large judgment in a class action lawsuit, I think it was, in California.”

...

The Washington Free Beacon has a delightful compilation of MSM fools making idiots of themselves with fulsome praise of the felonious fraud:

Unfortunately missing from this admirable selection is purported conservative Ana Navarro toying with blasphemy as well as idiocy, comparing Avenatti to the Holy Spirit.

Toobin admit, “And frankly, you know, I feel kind of snookered, because I took him seriously,’

That happens when you follow the crowd leaping gleefully over the cliff. What it means is, you are not a critical thinker. You are a follower, pure & simple. But fear not, everyone you hang out with is exactly like you. I see it as an aberration that you finally saw it differently. Alas though, a broken clock is still more accurate than you, percentage wise.

Maybe the reason network nitwits are liberals is because they can't tell the difference between good people and bad people.
