Project Veritas NEW 3 Min CNN PRODUCER EXPOSED UDERCOV ADMITTING to LYING BIG!

WRONG! Jeff Zucker told staff to go back to reporting on Russia when other stories came up because it was for ratings. You are incorrect. But I think it's WILLFUL ignorance.
You guys are so gullible and swallow whatever Fox News puts out, when they are the ones pandering to ratings. First off, that CNN producer who so eloquently makes your case never mentions Zucker by name, but refers to him as the CEO of CNN, which is a non-existent position. You'd think that someone so highly placed on CNN's editorial board would know that there is a CEO of Time-Warner, but a President of CNN. Maybe a small point, but a true insider should not misspeak like that. Secondly, even if we allow him that, he is reporting a second hand conversation, supposedly quoting his boss as to something the "CEO" said. But probably the best argument is that if CNN's ratings are high when they cover the Russia story, it is because a lot of Americans are interested in it. If everyone thought it was "fake news" they would tune out. Instead we are glued to our sets, because this is BIG, really BIG NEWS. The more Trump denies it, but at the same time tries to deflect, like by blaming Obama, the more interesting it becomes. This story is not fading anytime soon, and that has nothing to do with the media favoring coverage of it. There is a special counsel and at least three congressional committees (led by Republicans) looking into it. Some two-bit conservative whacko surreptitiously recording CNN producers who have nothing to do with politics news isn't going to stop that.

No, what was said: The CEO (ZUCKER) held a MEETING and ORDERED the staff to go back to covering Russia - NOT as you are saying: "a second hand conversation that was overheard" or something like that. You are claiming that something else was said that was not actually said, at all.

Contrary to what you guys think, liberals do not insistent that everyone march in lockstep.
While that is technically true, you'll still get a bike lock to the head or have the building in set on fire, if you don't.

You really are fixated on Stanford.

You want to believe the reporting on the story, but how about a transcript:
BONIFIELD: Yeah, so, my boss, I shouldn’t say this, my boss yesterday, we were having a discussion about this dental shoot and he goes, he’s like, “I just want you to know what we’re up against, here.” …
BONIFIELD: He goes, just to give you some context, President Trump pulled out of the climate accords, and for a day and a half we covered the climate accords and the CEO of CNN said in our internal meeting, he said, “Good job, everybody, covering the climate accords. But we’re done with it. Let’s get back to Russia.
PV JOURNALIST: The CEO?
BONIFIELD: Yeah. So even the climate accords, he was like, “Okay, a day or so, but we’re moving back to Russia.”
So Bonifield is quoting his boss quoting the "CEO." That is the definition of second-hand.
And BTW, I don't know what planet you are from, but here on earth, magazines and newspapers are in the business of selling more magazines and newspapers and TV shows are in the business of ratings. CNN may be showing a commercial bias, but any right or left leanings are dictated by their ratings. Maybe they seem liberal because all the conservatives are watching Fox News for their news/entertainment.

I started this post before Fox, Drudge, or the White House mentioned it. That's why I was like, wow I think this is going to be big, and Fred was like, nah, same old same old, and then it was picked up by everyone. And I think you kind of stopped a little short of the full interview. Anyway, this is a total waste of time talking to you about this. Either you are warping this into something it's not because you really can't deal with the Truth, or you're having a real good laugh trying to make us look crazy for arguing against nonsense, but that would be a pretty lame existence…

I am not toying with you and obviously we are not going to have a meeting of the minds on the significance of the reporting or what it represents. But I will challenge you when you get your facts wrong. I listened to the whole video and that transcript I quoted is readily available, but interestingly, not on Project Veritas' site. ( they paraphrase him in the text reporting of the conversation). The bombshell was clearly what Zucker supposedly said, but Bonifield was simply repeating what his boss told him. And since he thought he was talking to a journalism student, who knows if he even exaggerated that? It's not like they have a memo from Zucker instructing the politics news team to get back to Russia.

Berkeley is where they set the building on fire.
Clearly you want to limit the scope of these kinds of things.

My bad. I get all those northern California universities confused.

Here's the most damning quotes from little bit that has been leaked so far:
_PV JOURNALIST: But honestly, you think the whole Russia shit is just bullshit?
BONIFIELD: Could be bullshit. I mean, it’s mostly bullshit, right now. Like we don’t have any big giant proof. But then they say, “Well, there’s still an investigation going on.” Yeah, I don’t know, if you were finding something, we would know about it._
Pucci, the producer literally admits that CNN profits off of lying to the American public.
How un-woke do you have to be to think this is even a little bit acceptable? How tribalistic do you have to be to defend CNN here and downplay this? You do not get to ignore this just because you don't like the people involved.
Major news publications are beginning to pick up this story (aside from Fox) so it's obvious this isn't just going to blow over.

"We did everything possible to ensure Hillary would win" - Chris Cuomo on CNN
"we sure did, but it wasn't enough apparently" - his female co-host

Is this what you are referring to? a quote from 2014 before Hilary was a candidate?
