CNN Gives Crooked Comey His Own Town Hall to Promote Book

The latest in CNN’s series of “Town Hall” farces will be a free infomercial featuring former FBI director James Comey where he will promote his new book as well as respond to the usual series of scripted questions from an audience that will be carefully chosen to only represent one view and that view will be hating on President Trump.

Comey’s book “A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies & Leadership” was already near the top of best seller lists weeks before its release, likely due to bulk purchases and advance orders by activists and Obama loyalists who are still dug in deeper than Alabama ticks at the politicized FBI.

The tall man is as slick as greased owl shit and the primary purpose of his promotional tour which will receive saturation coverage will be to put a spin on what has been described as an explosive report from DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz that is said to contain details on systemic abuse of the department for political means as well as providing fraudulent information to FISA courts to procure surveillance warrants against the Trump campaign.

Comey ran the FBI at the time and the CNN event is a signal that the media will construct an impenetrable force field around him to defend him from any inconvenient details within that report.

Via The Daily Wire “Comey Gets The Red Carpet From CNN: A Full Town Hall Event To Mark Book Launch”:

On Wednesday, CNN announced that it would host a townhall event with former FBI Director James Comey on April 25 to launch his new book, A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies & Leadership. According to the press release, the townhall event will take place at William & Mary College in Virginia, and Anderson Cooper will moderate.

Now, Comey’s book will certainly be newsworthy — although Cooper should certainly ask Comey why he hasn’t just come out with information vital to America’s future without launching a book to earn some quick cash. But there’s something more disturbing here: leaving aside townhall events with politicians, during which the questions are biased enough, CNN’s history of issue-oriented townhall events skews toward one particular side of the aisle.

Most recently, of course, CNN hosted an Orwellian Two Minutes Hate townhall event in Parkland, Florida, where student survivors of a mass shooting proceeded to label Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) and the NRA’s Dana Loesch murderers with blood on their hands, while the crowd screamed its approval. In November, CNN hosted a townhall discussion on sexual harassment in America featuring Anita Hill, who testified against Clarence Thomas in highly questionable fashion. In January 2016, CNN held a townhall event on guns, featuring President Obama.

When it comes to issue-oriented townhall events, CNN has never done an event specifically on the risks of illegal immigration or the problem of abortion. But they’ll always make room for the most “important” issues of the day, so long as those issues tend toward benefitting Democrats.

Comey will likely be given the red carpet treatment by Cooper; Cooper’s only tough questions will probably be about Comey’s treatment of Hillary Clinton during the last election cycle. And Comey knows that: Michael Wolff has already proved that confirmation bias will guarantee a bestseller. So prepare for hysterical headlines and breathless reportage of news we likely already know.

If CNN is the standard for American media then you would expect to receive less biased coverage in Kim Jong-un’s dictatorial North Korea.

What a farce.
