CNN anchor Alisyn Camerota — who's made little effort to hide her disdain for President Donald Trump on the "Facts First" network — gave full flight to her bias on the Friday episode of "New Day" over the lack of action against Trump since the Mueller report went public.
What happened?
Sitting next to co-anchor John Berman, Camerota indeed looked and sounded dejected: "I guess my point, John — and I'm sorry if I sound like they've broken my spirit, however ..."
"But that's what it sounds like," Berman replied. "But I think that's the goal, too."
With that, Camerota launched into a speech that one might expect from a left-wing pundit or Democratic operative as opposed to a news anchor ( indeed "New Day" is listed under CNN's "news" category):
Well, it's worked. Because I think that I am channeling many members of the American public who feel that these past two years have been disheartening for people who believe in justice .. the reason that I say that is because you see in the Mueller report ample evidence laid out of obstruction — of what Robert Mueller considered obstruction — but nothing happens. You see violations of the emoluments clause, but nothing happens. You see nepotism, but nothing happens.
Here's the clip:
Anything else?
- In the wake of the Pittsburgh synagogue mass murder last fall, Camerota seemed to repeatedly try to get Jeffrey Myers, rabbi for the synagogue, to blame Trump. It didn't work.
- A year before that, Camerota also tried to bait a Gold Star mother into bashing Trump — and again, it didn't work.
- But to her credit, she also has called out Democrats for not negotiating with Trump over border security.
