CNN host Brian Stelter has been slammed for tweeting a claim that the 'real leaders' of 9/11 were news anchormen - and adding that 'political leaders were in bunkers or out of sight'. Stelter tweeted a quote from an article written by AP writer David Bauder, saying: 'Network TV anchors were the closest thing that America had to national leaders on 9/11. They were the moral authority on that first day'. He then added, 'especially with political leaders in bunkers or otherwise out of sight'. DailyMail.com columnist and former host of The View, Meghan McCain was one of the first to criticize Stelter, saying: 'I don't know what this is

That potato was 16yo on 9/11...of ALL of the heroes from that day, and in the days that followed, HE chose people that just TALKED about the thing REAL heroes were doing...and considers them "Morally Superior"

Mighty Mouth McCain shooting from the hip with half a load of buckshot, just like Daddy used to do. The list of "leaders" that she quoted were clueless and hiding in their basements or circling the sky on AF1. They still provide the same quality of leadership today, the ones that can stand up straight before noon.

He then set out to become one of those people that only TALK about what "Real" people do...in fact as a "Media Reporter", he doesn't even talk about real people, he only talks about media people talking about talking about... real people...Perhaps the mostly useless creature on the Planet.

Nothing that CNN puts out is factual, or worth wasting even a moment on.

Brian Stelter is a certifiable idiot. The real villains in this whole sordid mess are the news anchors, led by the CNN fools.

I don't think Rudy was in a bunker, he was covered with dust and with his firefighters and police. He attended every funeral and led us through so much of this trauma. Some of us still remember his courage and I am sure those firefighters and police do too.

When you look up RINO in the dictionary, there's a picture of Sen. John McCain with a crooked grin.

Good Lord...
Just another roof of why only fools bother to listen to the media, any more. Bunch of secular humanists who think individually, that each one of them is god, and everything happening around them is for their entertainment and to avoid boredom. We're all shadows - or npc characters in their video game.
Selfish, petulant, lonely, sociopaths...

How is potato head any different from Biden? Both are loose cannons saying truly stupid stuff. Apparently CNN can’t control him any better than Biden’s handlers can control him.

Why does Stelter have a job? Who hired him? He is a complete waste of space.

Oh dear, oh dear. First I had to agree with Mahr. Like that isn't bad enough, now I have to agree in this instance with Meghan McCain. Stelter is about half a Zoom call away from joining a certain colleague with initials Jeffrey Toobin.

What’s really pathetic is that this is what TV talking heads imagine themselves to be - counselors and moral authorities. It would be laughable if it wasn’t so irritating. There were a lot of heroes on 9/11 and none of them were journalists. They also were not Hillary Clinton or John McCain.

He's trying to advance his career. The more outrageous stuff he says or acts, the more attention he gets. It's the AOC advancement strategy.

Like a high school clique, to some degree members of many professions stick together.Many deem themselves as irreplaceable saviors. The last profession which should be beyond reproach is journalism.

I find it amazing that the left will go to any lengths to avoid naming the people...and the religion....responsible for the gutless attacks on American civilians.

Pot say hello to kettle! Songbird's spawn doesn't know what she's talking about either ... adding insult to the injury! She has the gall to include Hillary!!
They are both morons in my opinion. The true heroes are all pretty much nameless ... first responders, the passengers, the victims, their families, etc.

Brian Stelter is all mouth and could not fight his way out of a paper bag. Unfortunately he is one of the leftist or socialist media clowns who is giving a good percentage of Americans most of the highly partisan and politicized information they learn about what is happening domestically and around the world.

Don't hear anything about Trump and his employees being at GZero to clean up. But I did read in 20th Anniversary articles that he was the "only president who never attended" a memorial service. I
Clinton, Obama, Biden are true politicians. They show up to give their speeches, get their photos taken, wipe a tear from their eye for the TV camera, but they never got their hands dirty, they never got covered in ashes, and they did not pay out of their own pockets for any worker. Where was precious Beau Biden or "the smartest person" Hunter Biden during the clean-up? Bill Clinton was a young enough man at the time, unemployed, and drawing over $400,000 /yr of taxpayer money. Why wasn't he covered with suet, working at the rubble pile, instead of giving "comfort" to the prettiest of the grieving women?
Stelter was in no danger. He would have been a useful idiot in case there had been further attacked. Al-qaeda could have depended on him to spread panic and hysteria. CNN was no doubt part of the psy-ops plan for Osama bin Laden.
We know who the heroes are, even if we do not know all their names. Here is a good time to remember the NYFD son of Ms. Lucianne. He was one of those who worked to the point past exhaustion, covered in ashes. We remember the heroes. And it sure isn't Brian Stelter or Anderson Cooper.

Meghan McCain can’t help stepping on herself even when she is right on the sentiment. The leaders on that day and going forward were Mayor Giuliani and President Bush. How she can include Senator Schumer and, worse, Hillary Clinton, who was a private citizen at the time, is astounding.

When you had to hobble around in all the confusion in high heels and looking for your lipstick he obviously did not have a clear head or view. The fog remains to this day in his pathetic little brain box

we can orate and converse about September 11, 2001 but the very real tragedy is that there are far too many people in this country who will believe everything they are fed on the alphabet networks, which means that we are essentially spitting into the wind. until something is done about these subversive and communist networks the situation seems to be irreversible
