Could be any one of the remaining anchors, not just him. All complicit sellouts.

benjkrause.bsky.social•27 days ago

Jake Tapper and Anderson Cooper have failed as journalists.

kelseyursula.bsky.social•14 days ago

Well, Anderson just redeemed himself a little when he called Chris Sununu a dick live on air! 🤣

interstranger.bsky.social•27 days ago

They’re not journalists. They’re entertainment “personalities.” And fuck @cnn.com :)

benjkrause.bsky.social•27 days ago

Good point. All the major news outlets are owned by entertainment companies.

auntlola.bsky.social•27 days ago

Agreed. I’ve unfollowed both.

Good one.
He is so weak.
Got walked on yesterday in an interview with a Nazi.

boarish.bsky.social•27 days ago

Yeah but the guy is absolutely crushing Wordle so at least we know he’s smart

rnoble-1.bsky.social•27 days ago

Hang in there Jake - we don't need to lose you also

allimcc.bsky.social•27 days ago

😅

kgrant1073.bsky.social•27 days ago

Exactly. Tapper, while every now and then stumbling into a moment of actual journalism, usually is content to do things to drive up his ratings. I'm assuming he has elevator clauses in his contract like a pro athlete.

jolly1766.bsky.social•27 days ago

CNN will get the other anchors to hawk Jake's novels.

figmore.bsky.social•27 days ago

Yeah Jake, "the best thing"...ic-yall-mi???

mattadas.bsky.social•27 days ago

Self preservation is the way forward, baby.

isazeeem.bsky.social•27 days ago

Jake @ CNN,
You are pathetic! Go away!

aarwood46.bsky.social•27 days ago

I will never forgive Tapper for letting Ron DeSantis say democrats were performing post birth abortions on tv with zero pushback.

shadowbandaid.bsky.social•27 days ago

So you have facts that say otherwise?

aarwood46.bsky.social•27 days ago

Yes, why don’t you?

seekhigherground.bsky.social•27 days ago

The burden of proof is on the assertion. One cannot prove a negative, which you’re trying to have us do. I cannot prove there isn’t a god any more than you can prove there isn’t an invisible dragon under my bed. Etc. Next!

shadowbandaid.bsky.social•26 days ago

The assertion is as much a Willingness to allow it as the act itself. You cannot write a law allowing it without at least some expectation of it occurring.

shadowbandaid.bsky.social•26 days ago

Nice try. well actually NOT. The fact was stated. You are bitching about it's validity. Now provide the proof that in fact Libtards do A: Not support abortion up to birth. B: The states (Like Colorado) that have these laws in place either have never or will never act on that laws extreme.

aarwood46.bsky.social•26 days ago

It’s your job to prove post-birth abortions occur.
Where is your proof?

caperloo.bsky.social•27 days ago

Everyone allows it. Trump says it too, with no pushback.
It’s INSANITY!

scoundrel2.bsky.social•27 days ago

nice

brandalorian86.bsky.social•27 days ago

This account keeps me sane!

thefool37.bsky.social•27 days ago

Tapper is such a tool

pippy5.bsky.social•27 days ago

Don't do it lad we love you for who you are not what they want you to be like they tried to do with him start your own network with him

kelmoonface.bsky.social•27 days ago

Drag him.

stewardn.bsky.social•27 days ago

Periodic reminder that he has been trash for years: https://washingtoncitypaper.com/article/279465/i-dated-monica-lewinsky/

spiritbeing.bsky.social•27 days ago

The best thing I can do is boycott CNN.

shadowbandaid.bsky.social•27 days ago

And go where? MSLSD?

reaieharvie.bsky.social•27 days ago

Honestly you have to move away from opinion based news. ABC World News tonight and PBS Newshour report the events. Very little editorializing. Sometimes feels boring cause we are used to the outrage. Read serval news sources to follow up stories of interest. Come here for opinions and venting.

spiritbeing.bsky.social•27 days ago

That may be my next drug of choice.

drseussabc.bsky.social•27 days ago

Yes. Boycott ALL network news.
ALL of it.

spiritbeing.bsky.social•27 days ago

DITTO. Though MSNBC goes after trump, I still can't bear to watch any of it.

flipkid54.bsky.social•27 days ago

Same.

shadowbandaid.bsky.social•27 days ago

Maybe they fired him because he's a FUCKING MORON.....

koosiss.bsky.social•27 days ago

He was there for 18 years so no he's not a Moron.

nick5775.bsky.social•27 days ago

Fuck Jake the Snake!

zizouille.bsky.social•27 days ago

That’s not far from the actual truth.

abbendectomy.bsky.social•27 days ago

Jake Tapshoes

badstorm3.bsky.social•27 days ago

So disappointed in him.

adversepossession.bsky.social•27 days ago

I thought this was written by Joe Scarborough?

jolly1766.bsky.social•27 days ago

Is there any difference?

bulb5621.bsky.social•24 days ago

Wether you like DJT or not he is the story that makes the most money..

Now he is using that position to destroy or force the media into submission..

gartmartin9.bsky.social•27 days ago

Opinion | Why CNN is right to pay large sums of money to Scott Jennings to lie on our channel every night. This is not a desperate attempt on our part to get viral clips, it is about the marketplace of ideas.

dirtylooie.bsky.social•27 days ago

Again, money is more important than the truth. Always be an Acosta. CNN is dead.

wellestarr1.bsky.social•27 days ago

Somebody has to donate cans of food to the soup kitchen to feed the rest of us.

misterphillip.bsky.social•27 days ago

Trump is now Amerika's Führer, only people loyal to him are acceptable...we have entered the Age of Fascism

blazesboylan.bsky.social•27 days ago

Tapper is such a shapeshifter. I have no idea what his ethics or values actually are.

neverdoubt.bsky.social•27 days ago

Which likely means they're all just reading from whatever script the network approves that day.

sparkytrish.bsky.social•27 days ago

Jake needs a podcast too!!

sparkytrish.bsky.social•27 days ago

Does Jim Acosta have a podcast? If not he needs to do it immediately!! Jasmine Crockett is so let's all fall in line! We need dem podcasts flooding social media!!

lea-v-emealone.bsky.social•27 days ago

Starting on Substack TONIGHT AT 6PM!!

caperloo.bsky.social•27 days ago

Agree!!!!

luckyloco.bsky.social•27 days ago

Say it ain't so, I loved Jake Tapper

caperloo.bsky.social•27 days ago

Tapper is not news or facts.

brad-carpenter.bsky.social•27 days ago

From the author of "The Outpost", "The Hellfire Club", and "All the Devils are Here" comes a new political thriller.

"Brave" writes Steve Bannon.

"This guy's finally on the payroll?" asks Stephen Miller.

This Fall, Jake Tapper's new book "The Boot Tastes Delicious" coming to an Ollie's near you.

alwayseating.bsky.social•27 days ago

Let's not forget his shitty novel that he wrote. It's all manufacturing consent, tapper gets the money because he will not ask the questions and plays along. He's not a journalist. Never was.

georgebrenner.bsky.social•27 days ago

Tapped out…

kim65.bsky.social•27 days ago

It's easy for me to get judgemental and call him a sell out (I have many times), and once again, I'm blaming him instead of blaming the real sell outs.

bradiscranky.bsky.social•27 days ago

if Jake isn't in the next Knives Out movie again then America is truly dead

(i like the knives out movies)

neverdoubt.bsky.social•27 days ago

Reminds me of the way Anderson Cooper threw Kathy Griffin to the wolves.

dustcongress.bsky.social•27 days ago

never forget this trash:

jaytingle.bsky.social•27 days ago

Subtle.

Concerned about RFK Jr. serving as secretary of health? The following sheet pan road kill bear carcass recipes are sure to help you forget about the return of polio.
