Brian Stelter has no shame
The Spectator ^ | 7 June 2021 | Stephen L Miller

Posted on 06/07/2021 2:51:38 PM PDT by Rummyfan

What exactly are the qualifications to host a show on CNN? The most obvious seems to be an astonishing lack of professional shame — and I’m not even talking about the circus act Chris Cuomo’s been doing for the past year.

Reliable Sources is the most ironically named show in all of cable news, given that the guest roster regularly includes Dan Rather. On this Sunday’s episode, host Brian Stelter partook in a highly embarrassing act of professional self-debasement, in a segment in which he offered schoolgirl giggles and petty star-gazing over White House press secretary Jen Psaki. Stelter acted like a privileged fan of Psaki, giddy to just be basking in her celebrity aura for a brief moment of her precious time. Stelter regularly claims his show covers all things media — when he actually just means all things Fox News. He usually invites other like-minded guests on to bicker about Fox News, like a clique from a bad Nineties teen movie. That’s all fine and good, as that is what CNN has chosen for its business model, but Brian Stelter also claims to be a real journalist who tackles hard issues.

So when Stelter behaves like an Entertainment Tonight host with the spokesperson for the most powerful man in the world, it should raise eyebrows, even among his inner circle, who hopefully have begun the process of planning an intervention. Stelter opened his segment by asking Psaki, ‘What does the press get wrong when covering Biden’s agenda?’ As it turned out it would only get more ridiculous from there. He allowed Psaki to pontificate on Biden’s agenda unchallenged, save a couple of ‘ooh’s and ‘ahh’s and a bellowing forced ‘ha!’, without challenging her on any of the very real and mounting issues facing this administration.

Brian Stelter has no shame because Brian Stelter has no brain.

RT spews less propaganda than CNN.

As low brow as Psaki is, she can do better than that creep.
