Twitter Co-Founder Claims CNN Made Up Story in Ferguson
2022-04-20
[Townhall] Jack Dorsey, co-founder and former CEO of Twitter, claimed on Monday he saw CNN trying "to create conflict and film it" while covering the protests and riots in Ferguson, Missouri in the aftermath of the officer-involved shooting of Michael Brown.

Dorsey made the comment when responding to Brain Stelter, CNN's chief media correspondent, posting an article from the Washington Post about how Fox News host Tucker Carlson is always selling the same thing, "He's selling doubt..."

"[A]nd you all are selling hope?" Dorsey replied.

#2  His recent "out of school" talk makes me think him leaving Sh*tter chairmanship was not a voluntary move and now the sour grapes are coming out.

Not that I have a problem with that...

Worked in Ferguson. Partially successful in the Russia-Trump collusion story. Nearly worked again in D.C. on 6 January.

I'd recommend digging a bit deeper than CNN however.
