CNN gets destroyed for its “Being Chris Christie” debacle
Something has gone very, very wrong at CNN this year. The Great Ratings Collapse of 2021 has hit all political news outlets hard, but CNN seems to be particularly desperate to boost those ratings by any dishonest or disingenuous way possible. To that end, it aired a show tonight called – we’re not making this up – “Being Chris Christie.”
Suffice it to say that it didn’t exactly go over well:
“Being Chris Christie” on CNN is on right now.
Its original title was “How Desperate We Are to Pump up Other GOP Candidates So There Can Be a Contested Republican Primary, Which We Need for Ratings.”

If I can promise you anything, it’s that I will not spend one second watching the press help Chris Christie with his image rehab tour.

Let me understand this, @CNN is promoting Chris Christie as a MAGA critic with decency even though he’s a criminal lunatic who served MAGA whilst attacking VP Kamala Harris during a successful visit to France. I mean, the racism and sexism is front and center. CNN is Fox-lite.
