This is CNN....

CNN has done a number of reports on climate change and people carbon footprint.

If you ask us, this is important reporting and we wish more outlets would make this kind of reporting a priority.

But, when it comes to leading by example, that is where CNN drops the ball.

Check out this tweet by Brian Stelter’s minion Oliver Darcy:

What do you think the carbon footprint of CNN’s 9 53 foot long semis rumbling into Motown was?

This is a debate about who may become the next President of our country. You could have thrown a few podiums on the stage in front of a big curtain and let the dialogue be the star of the show.

As one viewer posted to social media,” Which of the candidates will be supporting the “Green New Deal” while standing on this monstrously CO2-producing set?”

Also, you have this massive set and you still don’t have room for the American Flag?

The flag is the symbol of this country and contrary to what some believe it is not just a symbol for the GOP. Come on CNN, throw a flag up on the set!

And yet….somehow Jeff Zucker still has a job.
