The Liberal Media Get Their Golden Boy In Conor Lamb

Liberals are still celebrating Conor Lamb’s narrow victory in the PA-18 special election. In recent days, Salon contributor Sophia Tesfaye predicted “candidates like him could turn the blue wave into a tsunami,” while Democratic fundraiser Kurt Schrader praised Lamb’s winning “Blue Dog message.”

But the leading cheerleader has been CNN — the self-proclaimed “Most Trusted Name in News.” Try “Democrat news.” Following Lamb’s win, CNN can’t contain its excitement, churning out anti-Trump headline after anti-Trump headline. One op-ed argues “Trump can’t spin his Pennsylvania humiliation, while another claims “Republicans are gonna need a bigger yacht” when the blue wave crashes.

CNN’s “news” stories are hardly more objective. One headline highlights “Trump’s losing streak,” while another claims the “GOP is in trouble.” The “analysis” itself is as impartial as you’d expect. White House reporter Stephen Collinson mocks President Donald Trump for “racking up quite the losing streak,” concluding the president “will be more of a liability than an asset for Republicans come midterm elections.” Editor-at-large — and leading anti-Trumper — Chris Cillizza cheered not only Lamb’s “massively important” victory, but also the Democratic fundraising windfall to come. Cillizza giddily predicts the PA-18 election will “convince every major Democratic donor who has been sitting on the sidelines that now is the time to get involved.”

At this point, CNN should just own its liberal slant and register as a Democratic super PAC. Like The New York Times, which openly lobbied against the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act last year, the supposedly “Most Trusted Name in News” is effectively an arm of the Democratic National Committee. On a daily basis, the cable news network leverages its millions of viewers and online readers to undermine the Trump agenda and create an echo chamber for liberal outrage.
