CNN’s Brian Stelter, the disgraced former media analyst who peddled the debunked Russia collusion hoax for years while CNN’s ratings cratered, has erupted over the Trump White House’s new “Media Offenders” leaderboard—a scathing site exposing leftist media propaganda and ranking outlets, including CNN, according to who is the worst for “false and misleading stories.”
Stelter whined “President Donald Trump and his staff escalated their attacks on journalists with a new media bias tracker on the White House site. The tracker comes after the administration’s efforts to reshape the press corps in its favor this year, and today it’s taking aim at coverage of Trump’s calls for accountability for Democrats.”
CNN is already frantic over the Trump administration’s new webpage exposing media bias.

Brian Stelter practically spiraled on air…insisting over and over that the real goal was to “delegitimize the media.”
At the bottom of the screen, CNN slapped on a dramatic chyron:
“White… pic.twitter.com/q1btrZdT8I
Potato headed Stelter further complained, “I think when the President insults reporters, or when the White House goes and claims media outlets are biased, it might draw more attention, more curiosity about what the stories are about.”
Yes, that’s the entire point Brian.
This hysterical spin from the king of fake news—zero credibility after pushing the Steele dossier fairy tale that led to Mueller’s $32M dud—exposes his fear of transparency, as the leaderboard proudly calls out MSM lies like claims Trump wants to execute Democrats, building on the “Race to the Bottom” we’ve detailed where CNN and MSNBC puppets receive scripted “talking point” directives amid the info war.
Stelter’s meltdown—claiming Trump’s tracker is an “attack on journalists”—reeks of hypocrisy from the man who anchored CNN’s Reliable Sources for years, relentlessly smearing Trump while ignoring his network’s own scandals like the Jussie Smollett hoax coverage.
@cnn and @brianstelter are allowed to relentlessly criticize every aspect of this administration, but any pushback at all is not allowed at all. Doesn't work that way potato.

Stelter was the face of the Russia collusion frenzy, breathlessly promoting the Steele dossier despite FBI warnings it was “minimally corroborated”—a fake news epic that wasted taxpayer millions and eroded public trust, with Mueller concluding no conspiracy.
Throwback to when @BrianStelter claimed in 2017 that @KellyannePolls was spreading "misinformation" when she called the Steele dossier "completely unverified" — with Stelter arguing "much" of the dossier was verified. The Steele dossier was total bullshit.pic.twitter.com/3gV20j5iZL https://t.co/LY2cyJxTvZ

Fired in 2022 amid CNN’s lowest ratings ever, Stelter’s “credibility problem” (his own words on Trump in 2017) now bites back.
Strong correlation between CNN getting wrong some of the biggest issues of our day and obsessing about misinformation. https://t.co/JCrZt7naRy

Here we have the very guy, the walking definition of fake news, who called the Hunter Biden laptop ‘Russian disinformation’ complaining about “bias news.”

With zero self-awareness, he cries foul on a site that logs MSM offenses like the Boston Globe’s “Trump calls for execution” lie, proving Stelter’s the laughing stock who cried wolf one too many times.
Journalists are supposed to "investigate" shit, you utter fucking spoon.

The Media Offenders page is obviously political, not some neutral civic service; it’s a bold, unapologetic weapon to expose MSM’s anti-Trump bias, proudly logging “false and misleading stories.” It’s not some dark conspiracy that CNN has discovered, it’s transparent warfare against “Repeat Offenders,” like Brian and CNN.

The ultimate succulent irony here is that Stelter was running his own “media offenders” campaign for years.

He was actively attempting to get networks and reporters he disagreed with censored.
March, 2021. Brian Stelter does a segment on if Fox reporters should be removed from the White House Press Pool.

"Should it be a part of the White House Press Pool…should it be afforded the privileges that come with news gathering?"
This is CNN. pic.twitter.com/OuGruP3rJt
It’s OK when he does it!

But CNN surely isn’t still biased or pushing its own agenda, is it?
