Leftists at CNN Are Now Coming After Scott Jennings

Leftists at CNN Are Now Coming After Scott Jennings

“During the meeting, staff questioned the behavior of Jennings, who frequently gets into verbal spats with other CNN guests as a firebrand Trump loyalist”

There is one conservative, Trump-supporting voice on CNN, and the left absolutely can’t stand it.

Scott Jennings is the only person who makes the network even watchable at times, and for this, leftists at the network are working behind the scenes to get rid of him because they simply refuse to tolerate any dissent. Progressives require conformity, and anyone who steps out of line is punished.

P.J. Gladnick writes at NewsBusters:

CNN Staffers Revolt Due to Inability to Tolerate Scott Jennings

Few things better exemplify the inability of the left to tolerate contrary viewpoints than the recent struggle session framed as an “Internal Town Hall” when CNN CEO Mark Thompson was confronted by leftist staffers who claimed they were offended by the existence on their network of conservative commentator Scott Jennings.

It seems they agreed with recent NewsNight guest Cameron Kasky, who arrogantly declared to Jennings that he was somehow not permitted to use the term “illegal alien” despite the fact it is a legal term written into immigration law.

Gladnick points to this report from the Daily Beast that describes a recent CNN struggle session:

CNN Boss Confronted by Staff Over MAGA Pundit’s On-Air Behavior

CNN boss Mark Thompson was pressed by staff about why the network has not reined in MAGA mouthpiece Scott Jennings’ on-air rhetoric.

Thompson hosted an all-hands meeting with CNN employees, giving them the opportunity to raise questions and concerns about the network’s current state and future.

During the meeting, staff questioned the behavior of Jennings, who frequently gets into verbal spats with other CNN guests as a firebrand Trump loyalist…

Earlier this month, Democratic political operative Julie Roginsky published a critique of CNN for repeatedly inviting Jennings to appear on its shows.

Writing in her Salty Politics Substack, Roginsky questioned why Jennings is allowed back on the network when he is “rude, dismissive, and antagonistic in ways that feel personal rather than substantive,” especially toward female guests.

“CNN should ask itself a simple question: what is Scott Jennings adding that could not be accomplished by any number of conservative analysts who are capable of making arguments without bad-faith theatrics?” Roginsky wrote.

This is all lies, of course. The left doesn’t like Jennings because he is effective. Plain and simple.

If the people who run CNN had any brains, they would ignore these leftist complainers and give Scott Jennings his own primetime show. If they did that, CNN might actually take some market share away from FOX News, for once.

…he is “rude, dismissive, and antagonistic in ways that feel personal rather than substantive,”

Even if true, this is the pot calling the kettle “black.”

They can’t tolerate him because he won’t let them win with their inaccurate, false, or simply fabricated arguments.

It’s just not FAY-errrrrr!!</b<

There’s a name that accurately describes these complainers: Children.
.

As Gold Meir said decades ago, no peace w/ people who want to kill you.

Here, as with most leftist “communication” operations, the dominant number of leftists simply cannot stand any question of their statements – many of which are blatantly wrong. So, they will attack and attack until, child like, they get their way. They cannot stand looking in the mirror to see their real selves: Guilty of whatever they hurl at conservatives.

IF CNN drops Jennings from this show, it may well fail. AND all the lefties will blame management because mgt hired Jennings. Heck, I think he now has his own radio show.

Compare,

“There is one conservative, Trump-supporting voice on CNN, and the left absolutely can’t stand it.”

“There is one tiny Jewish country in the Mid-East. And there are seven Muslim countries (or territories) surrounding it and five countries contagious to those countries/territories absolutely can’t stand it.”

This proves it is nearly impossible to tell Democrats things they don’t want to know.

Jennings is pretty meek and mild considering the outlandish behavior of the leftists on the panels (they ain’t liberals). He’s far more considerate and civil than many of us who only view the clips especially when each night he’s facing off v multiple propagandists whose bad faith presumptions come from illogical, historically inaccurate and often contradictory claims. That he hasn’t come over the table to choke slam someone is testament to his patience.

The left’s final solution when it can’t win an argument.

The communists really do hate it when Jennings demonstrates exactly how stupid they really are.

Keep in mind that leftist TruBelievers™ have a sense of identity EXTERNAL to themselves.

Their identity and sense of self-worth is based on their adherence to and support for the Current Thing. When the Current Thing is attacked or simply disagreed with, leftist feel personally attacked and react blindly. They literally cannot tolerate opposing views, which might strip them of their essential personhood.

This is why they are willing, not just to hurt you to shut you up but actually will kill anyone who threatens their particular bubble.

It is an emotional and irrational worldview but it existsis , nevertheless, and a fundamental reason why leftists cannot be reasoned with.

“Leftists at CNN Are Now Coming After Scott Jennings”
So then, who does that leave?

Midwits are threatened by people that are smarter than them. They are even more threatened by people that call out their lies immediately and back it up with facts making them look stupid. I’m surprised Jennings is still there. CNN must be paying him a bunch of money for his time.

Are they jockeying for a few of the former MSNBC’s audience?

Yep.

I would watch a Scott Jennings show on CNN.

I would watch CNN for the time that Jennings is on a panel but I have no idea when he’s on and I wouldn’t watch CNN for anything outside of that. I can get the left wing talking points from Jessica Tarlov on Fox and almost every other place.
