CNN Article Says Liberal Reporters Deserve Same Respect As Veterans

Fact checked
CNN reporters are not enemies of the people, according to a CNN, but are actually "protectors" of the people that can be compared to "guardian angels" and "soldiers."

CNN reporters are not enemies of the people, according to a CNN op-ed, but are actually “protectors” of the people that can be compared to “guardian angels” and “soldiers.”

Joseph Holt, an ethics professor at the University of Notre Dame, compared reporters to active duty soldiers in a recent CNN op-ed.

Holt argued in the piece, published on Friday, that the press is the “protector” rather than the “enemy” of the people. Throughout his article, Holt defended the “professionalism” of CNN journalists and compared the media to “guardian angel[s]” and “soldiers.”

“Far from being the enemy of the people, the press at its best is like a guardian angel that caringly and capably protects us from harm,” Holt wrote.

He concluded, “We thank soldiers for their service because they devote themselves to protecting our freedoms, and we should. But we should also thank the media for the same reason — especially when the stakes have never been higher.”

The outlet was instantly condemned on Twitter for daring to publish such a disrespectful article that tried to draw comparisons between liberal media hacks and soldiers who risk life and limb for their country.

  1. Veterans fought for America, fake news, main stream media, is set on destroying America with lies and not covering the truth.

    • No, veterans fought for the shit that we all have to deal with now. Fuck closet-queer veterans and fuck media butt-boys all the same.

  2. Veterans get little or no respect from the very people that represent them. No sooner do they join up then they cut their pay or ignore them when they return injured from war, which is why our streets are filled with these neglected street people who were once our proud veterans. Shame on you US government! Shame!
