CNN hits a new low:

" Obviously there's the smell of marijuana in the air..." --Jason on CNN.


Tweeted by Jeremy Scahill just now.

How irresponsible is tv coverage tonight?

[bluestateguy]

1. MJ would calm angry people down

nt

[shenmue]

2. Don Lemon was on before

[Dawson Leery]

3. CNN is the adopted bastard child of Fox.

[Lint Head]

4. There is also the smell of fascism.

[Lifelong Protester]

8. Is that ever true.

n/t

[RichGirl]

5. What is that suppose to mean.

The smell of marijuana in the air usually means ladies night out.

This whole thing is looking like bizarro world. Stealing cigars...a shoot to kill crime...marijuana an evil drug....

[dixiegrrrrl]

11. CNN used a dog whistle with that remark.

Stirring up stereotypical ideas of black people being on dope.

[niyad]

13. and don't forget--the whole "stolen cigars" story was debunked.

[otohara]

6. Crime Is Down in CO by 11%

Obviously there's something in the air.

[L0oniX]

7. New canisters of marijuana gas being shot at the protesters?

[sendero]

9. That's impossible..

.... CNN like FOX was already as low as it is possible to go.

Fuck the MSM - all liars.

10. They just keep trying to outdo Fox. Which is why I don't watch them. If I wanted to watch Fox, I

would watch the real thing, not an imitation. CNN's audience is probably smaller than DU's at this point.

[jillan]

12. What an idiot. So what? Maybe someone should give Scahill a joint.

[niyad]

14. you did see that it was someone on cnn who said it--jeremy merely reported the bs.
