In a shocking outburst, Keith Olbermann, an American sports and political commentator, has suggested that CNN should be “literally” demolished. His harsh criticism stems from his belief that the network’s moderators did not sufficiently support President Joe Biden during the 2024 presidential debate.
Olbermann audaciously accused CNN of failing to fact-check alleged “untruths” during the debate. He labeled this decision as one of the most morally reprehensible in the history of American journalism.
He declared, “The decision to not fact check any one of those lies by CNN was one of the most immoral decisions in the history of the free press in this country.”
Olbermann went further with his alarming remarks, suggesting that CNN should shut down operations and even go as far as burning down their buildings.
He cried, “Literally, I am suggesting that at some point tonight, CNN should… go off the air in shame. Fire everybody. Seal off the buildings. Make sure everybody’s out and burn the goddamn place to the ground.”
This overreaction underscores a growing trend among Democrats to demand absolute loyalty from media outlets. Instead of promoting balanced journalism and open dialogue, figures like Olbermann are advocating for destructive measures against networks they perceive as insufficiently supportive.
