The new top executive at CNN credits President Biden with saving his life more than a decade ago after he suffered a brain aneurysm.
Chris Licht, who was tapped to succeed Jeff Zucker as CNN’s boss earlier this year, recounted the dramatic episode in his 2011 memoir, (snip) At the time, Licht was executive producer of MSNBC’s daily morning talk show “Morning Joe,”
(snip) Brzezinski, whose friendship with Biden goes back decades, called the former senator from Delaware and told him about Licht’s condition.
According to the memoir, Biden called the hospital that was treating Licht and arranged to have him evaluated by a top neurosurgeon.

I wonder if Biden would have done this for someone from Fox? Nah, why am I even asking.

aw gee...VP USA used his office to personally intervene in a Medical Case, after a call from a third party with "high level Connections"..but would "Never" do such a thing in a business case.
As to the "Big Lie" bullchit...the correct term CNN could/should use is to call them Allegations/insinuations.
A "Lie" has a rubric of determination...It must be FALSE, provably false, and whoever is making the allegation/insinuation/statement must KNOW it to be false.
The "Big Lie" was/is CNN and the Dems constant barrage of Russia interference/collusion Lies...they KNEW were false.

When discussing Joe Biden it is nearly impossible to be too cynical, so here goes: as if there was no upside for Joe to ask his secretary to place a call to his neurosurgeon, put Joe on the line, have Joe request that the surgeon make seeing a prominent and sympathetic member of the media a top priority and then make a follow up call or two. I seem to recall the same Joe Biden looking at his watch impatiently at Dover AFB when the bodies of American troops were flown home from Afghanistan, troops he helped kill. He seemed to have more important fish to fry when no one at the ceremony could do anything for him or his career. A regular saint, ain’t he? /s

As Bill OReilly said years ago on The Factor, “the powerful protect the powerful”.

Frankly, I do not believe the story. Nothing else from CNN has proved to be true.

So, what he's saying is that the doctors where he had been taken wouldn't have diagnosed an aneurysm except for a phone call from VP Biden? Maybe he should go to a different hospital next time, if there is one.

Bidet's buddy, Walter Mitty probably had a part here.

He showed Licht that even someone with no brain could be “elected” President of the United States.

Biden made a phone call. This is how he conducted all of his business.

Next we'll be hearing that Dr. Jill assisted the neurosurgeon and guided him through the procedure.

What did dementia Jo's choice of neurosurgeon do? Elbow the attending neurosurgeon out of the way? That does noit happen - there tends to be mutual respect between physicians,
It is more likely that the Biden choice of neurosurgeon gave a second opinion. And it is probable that the aneurysm had already been operated on.

The story of CNN ... the more things change, the more they stay the same.
Dump Zucker, a Democrat stooge and hire Licht. Another stooge.

So Biden would "save" this guys life, but the good Catholic is okay with killing unborn babies! The probability of this being a fake story is astoundingly high considering it has ties to both CNN and MSNBC!
