CNN has once again shown its true colors—not as a news network, but as a propaganda machine for the radical left.
Kaitlan Collins, CNN’s White House Correspondent, is now facing scrutiny for directly promoting a legal defense fund for an accused murderer. And, as expected, CNN is staying silent.
Collins tweeted a link to a website funding the legal defense of Luigi Mangione, who is charged with assassinating UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in cold blood.
This isn’t just bad journalism—it’s an outright endorsement of a man accused of premeditated murder.
And here’s where the corruption goes deeper: Mangione’s legal analyst, Karen Friedman Agnifilo, is a CNN contributor. So, while Collins funnels attention and potential donations to Mangione’s defense, CNN insiders stand to profit from it.
This isn’t journalism—it’s a grotesque conflict of interest that exposes CNN’s utter lack of ethical boundaries.
Mangione’s case has become a rallying point for leftist activists, who now bizarrely portray him as a “vigilante” fighting against the failures of the healthcare system. Instead of condemning his alleged crime, the radical left is celebrating him.
- Over $300,000 has been raised for Mangione’s legal fund, with more than 10,000 donors chipping in.
- Left-wing activists and media figures have romanticized his actions, spinning the murder as a “protest” rather than a horrific crime.
- CNN is enabling this insanity, using its platform to directly influence public opinion in favor of an accused killer.
Imagine if a conservative journalist had promoted a legal defense fund for a right-wing figure accused of murder.
The media outrage would be instant and relentless—calls for firings, corporate boycotts, congressional hearings. But because CNN is backing a leftist narrative, they get a free pass.
Where is the media accountability? Where is the journalistic integrity? Nowhere—because CNN isn’t a news network, it’s a political operation.
This entire fiasco proves what conservatives have known for years: CNN is not in the business of truth. From peddling disinformation to openly supporting accused criminals, CNN has made it clear that their only goal is to serve the radical left’s agenda.
Collins’ actions aren’t an accident—they’re a symptom of the broader corruption infecting CNN from top to bottom. They don’t care about facts. They don’t care about integrity. They care about pushing their narrative—no matter how outrageous, dangerous, or unethical it may be.
America deserves better than this disgraceful excuse for journalism.
