MEDIA BIAS: CNN
Deploys Valerie Jarrett’s Daughter To Cover Trump Justice Department
March 2, 2017
By: Ben Shapiro
In yet another indicator that the mainstream media is
rife with corruption and conflicts of interest, CNN has now hired Laura Jarrett,
daughter of Valerie
Jarrett, to cover President Trump’s Department of Justice. As The Blaze reports,
CNN touted Jarrett’s background defending “companies and individuals in
government investigations brought by the Justice Department.”
Valerie Jarrett wasn’t just President Obama’s top advisor.
She’s also personally close to the Obamas to the extent that she’s reportedly
moving in with them in their new Washington, D.C. digs. Jarrett called Trump’s
election a “punch in the stomach…soul-crushing.” According to Vanity Fair,
Laura Jarrett is dedicated to “promoting civil rights and social equality for
women and minorities.”
So she’s probably going to be completely objective about
covering the Trump Administration.
This is nothing new from the mainstream media-Democratic
Party complex. Ben
Rhodes, the National Security Advisor to President Obama who
actively lied to the entire media about the Iran deal, is brother to David Rhodes,
president of CBS.
ABC News correspondent Claire Shipman is
the wife of Jay
Carney, former Obama press secretary. George Stephanopoulos, ABC
News’ leading anchor, is a former Clinton staffer. Ben Sherwood, president of
Disney-ABC television group, is brother to former Obama special assistant
Elizabeth Sherwood-Randall.
The media claim that such relationships have no bearing
on coverage. Perhaps. Or maybe, just maybe, people with close relationships to
those in power tend to favor those people in their coverage. After all, that’s
the entire basis of the rumors about President Trump’s conflicts of interests
with regard to his businesses, which are now supposedly run by his children –
their relationship makes him more likely to act in corrupt fashion to benefit
those businesses. Why wouldn’t that same logic apply to the media?
There’s nothing wrong with assigning Valerie Jarrett’s
child to cover the DOJ. But there is something wrong with pretending
objectivity when it is clearer every day that such objectivity is a figment of
the media’s imagination.
