Former CNN President Jeff Zucker ordered employees during then-President Donald J. Trump’s administration not to investigate the theory that the coronavirus pandemic was sparked by a lab leak in China, calling it a “Trump talking point,” according to a report.
A “well-placed CNN Insider” told Fox News Digital that Zucker issued the directive in the early stages of the pandemic.
On March 13, 2020, Harmeet Kauer, a “culture writer” for CNN, called the notion that the virus may have started in a laboratory a “fringe theory.”
Her colleague, Scottie Andrew, on April 13, 2020, wrote an article entitled “Nearly 30% in the US believe a coronavirus theory that’s almost certainly not true”

The putrid puke probably still enjoys "his" dilapidated tyrannical fiefdom.

So once again the fools who rely on CNN for ‘news’ are left with excuses and lame retractions of the propaganda, lies, and utter BS they feed to the public as what’s left of their audience continues to circle the toilet.

Of course he did. He was probably on Pfizer's payroll, too.

Knowing that virology lab was located in Wuhan wouldn't "an escape" why wouldn't it be the first place anyone think of as a possible source?
Election "denying" is another thing the Democrats have blown up into something no one can even question. Everyone knows that Dementia Joe did not really get 81 million votes. The idea that he got more votes that any other candidate in the history of the U.S. is absurd.
Ask about any of this and they want to put you in jail.

And this was the guy that was going to take CNN from the far left to the center?
Zucker is another left wing hack trying bamboozle the public that he's some kind of moderate.
Don't fall for it.

Doubtful this guy had the brain bandwidth to determine the position CNN took, but he was told by someone with affiliation to the DNC. In other words, it was all intentional.
Seems they weren't curious enough to ask questions or wonder if they were simply following orders on what to say, and what not to say.

Why is there no investigation into the TREASONOUS actions of Zucker and all the dirtbag employees who helped propagate the Chinese narrative? Moreover, is it not a federal crime to work as an agent of a foreign government and not register as such?

We all know what kind of a person Jeff Zucker is, and we also know what total garbage he was responsible for. CNN is a joke, NBC is a farce, and so on and so on.

Of course he did.! And I would venture that if "journalists" at CNN thought of doing otherwise, they would have lost their jobs. Guess what, with ratings in the toilet, they lost their jobs anyway! Ha Ha Ha! No sympathy from me.

This 'journalism" style is taught in Universities, colleges, and high schools. This crap was taught In 1956 while a student at Murphy Hall (Journalism/Advertising school), University of Minnesota. Liberals corrupted Journalism long ago...
