Washington, DC- The nation’s oldest media bias watchdog organization Accuracy in Media (AIM), under the leadership of President Adam Guillette, has awarded CNN as the ‘Useful Idiot of the Week’ in their series of cataloging the most egregious piece of journalism or fake news. This week CNN labeled President Trump’s COVID-19 briefing as “propaganda” while simultaneously running a press release from the communist Chinese military as news. Adam Guillette, President of Accuracy in Media, responded the following:“It’s disappointing to see CNN accurately living up to the title of ‘Chinese News Network’. With the airports empty CNN has lost half of their viewing audience. Perhaps their making up for that revenue shortfall by running ‘sponsored content’ from the Chinese military?”To schedule an interview with Adam Guillette of Accuracy in Media, please contact Francesca Goerg at [email protected], or call 703.739.5920.###
