CNN media critic Brian Stelter stopped by The View to pimp his new book that bashes Fox News and Donald Trump.

While he mainly fielded softball questions, Meghan McCain the lone conservative co-host on the show had a few tougher ones that Stelter sidestepped.

"There are some ethical questions that are being thrown around about CNN lately. There’s a 2016 audio of your president, Jeff Zucker, offering debate advice to President Trump that was released. Jake Tapper was recently caught trying to allegedly influence a congressional election. And I have serious problems with the way Chris Cuomo had a reoccurring prime-time sort of comic routine with his brother instead of asking about policies that were literally sending my friend Janice Dean's older relatives to die in nursing homes," McCain, who previously worked at Fox News, said. "So with the criticism of CNN, do you believe that this is acceptable, and don’t you think there’s enough fair criticism to go all the way around right now in just how news networks are run?” McCain asked Stelter.

But, Skippy who will talk smack about Fox News all day long, avoided these questions. “I’m not a spokesperson ... for CNN” Skip said and then added, it was not his place to "comment on these tapes.”

Wait! So you will write a book about Fox News and air as much of their dirty laundry as you can, but when shit is going down at CNN, it’s not your place?

You’re the media critic and last I looked, CNN is part of the media.

Look Skip, you might not be a spokesperson for CNN, but clearly you are a puppet for Jeff Zucker.
