So, the Jussie Smollett case has turned out to be wrong, leaving the mainstream media upset that a gay black man was not attacked. Now that the MSM has been proven wrong yet again, it is beginning to gaslight the public and suggest that it was skeptical all along.
Case in point, the Counterfeit News Network and morning host Alysin Camerota informing the audience that she was “surprised” by just how many people in the press believed Smollett’s story.
Except her of course…
Here is what she told Little Brian Stelter:
“I remember in the hours right after this happened that CNN, that our bosses were advising to pump the brakes a little bit because there were things already that didn’t add up. I was frankly surprised how many people jumped on board to side with Jussie Smollett before there were photos, before there were police statements, before all that stuff.”
But was CNN really skeptical of the claims? Nope.
For instance, CNN’s Brooke Baldwin said, “This is America in 2019” soon after the news broke:
“But this is kind of a shock. And we’ve seen, of course, the buzz on social media surrounding this case. But then when you think about the idea on top of that — the idea that racial slurs and maybe even some of the homophobic slurs being used toward him — you can see how serious this crime is right now. A lot of the people who work in this industry also live in this part of the town, so you can understand the concern even as we’ve been talking to people in this area. There’s been a sharp reaction to this crime. Hopefully we’ll learn more from police in the next few hours … been giving them calls to figure out exactly what detectives have so far, maybe a vehicle description or some sort of build. Don’t have any of that information so far, but it’ll be interesting to see how this plays out.”
Here is the initial TV news report:
Then here is the news report that doesn’t include “alleged”:
“‘Empire’ Star Jussie Smollett Attacked In Possible Hate Crime”
It wasn’t just CNN to fall for the hate hoax. The Daily Wire put together a list of articles that seemed to have believed Smollett.
Free Speech Forum says
Some Americans may have thought that tyranny would never come to the US because the rich, celebrities, media, politicians, and American people would resist.
Who would have thought that the rich would loot the country by getting bailouts and subsidies while being the ones conspiring and building the police state by paying actors, singers, and atheletes to distract Americans with bread and circuses, using reporters to push propaganda, real crises, and false flags, and buying off and corrupting politicians with campaign donations and cushy job promises to start wars, import refugees that weaken and divide the US, drive up the debt, make laws that enslave Americans, and throw crumbs to pacify the 99% in the form of food stamps, Obamacare, Obamaphones, and public housing?
The destruction of the USA is nearly complete.
