Sinclair Stoops to New Low
/Yesterday, FTVLive told you how the conspiracy group Project Veritas tricked a CNN Technical Director into thinking he was on a Tinder date, when in fact the date was a plant Project Veritas and caught the CNN employee on hidden camera.
The TD talked about how CNN was trying to get Trump voted out of office.
First off, no shit, anyone that watched CNN for more than 10 minutes knows that.
Second, we are talking about a button pusher Technical Director with no editorial control, bragging while out on “a date.”
The fact that anyone in the media would not look at Project Veritas with a skeptical eye is mind-blowing.
Yet, Sinclair pushed the Project Veritas story out to their stations and a link even ended up on the front page of some of their stations.
Like WSBT in South Bend.
The story about CNN and its left-leanings, shows just how far the right-leaning Sinclair will go to push its agenda.
But again, all of you know the role a TD plays in the station, but many outside TV news doesn’t have a clue. So, Sinclair posts a story like this, trying to rile up its conservative base, knowing that it is based on bullshit.
I get way Sinclair corporate pushed this story down to their stations, I don’t get why the stations felt compelled to use it?
Unless it was once again tagged as a must-run.
Sad.
