CNN is not sure it should hire a person who thinks its OK to promote violence against the chief executive officer of the United States?
“ 'Kathy Griffin should be ashamed of herself. My children, especially my 11 year old son, Barron, are having a hard time with this. Sick!' Trump tweeted Wednesday morning. After an explosive backlash, Griffin deleted her tweets and posted an Instagram video saying she “went way too far.”
“I’m a comic,” she said. “I cross the line. I move the line, then I cross it. I went way too far. The image is too disturbing. I understand how it offends people. It wasn’t funny. I get it. I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my career, I will continue.”
CNN called the beheading photo “disgusting” but did not definitely state Griffin would be prevented from co-hosting New Year’s Eve coverage."
This incident sums up everything that is wrong with Corporate Mainstream Media. VIOLENT members of society are promoting violence and Mainstream Media either sits idly by - or worse yet - Big Corporate Mainstream Media shower praise upon the perpetrators of violence - even going so far as to hire those violent people to host their news shows.
