CNN once again gave a case study of how much pull leftist billionaire George Soros has within the global media when it chose to use its journalists as emissaries protecting his image and his dark vision for the world. The loaded headline for the September 18 article: "How the right blames George Soros for just about everything."

CNN took aim at Soros critics following Vice President J.D. Vance’s September 15 guest-host appearance on The Charlie Kirk Show, where he ripped unhinged magazine The Nation for grave-stomping on the TPUSA Founder’s grave after he was assassinated September 10. Vance called the outlet Soros-funded.

“George Soros has been the go-to bogeyman for the American right — and right-wing leaders around the world — for years,” CNN senior writer Zachary Wolf and politics writer David Wright blathered in a 1,493-word screed.The outlet attacked Vance for connecting The Nation to Soros and parroted the deceptive accusations by Nation president Bhaskar Sunkara that Vance was lying. “So it should come as no shock that some conservative lawmakers in the US are placing blame on Soros after the assassination of the provocateur and political organizer Charlie Kirk.”

But as MRC Business research showed, Soros is in fact monetarily connected to The Nation. Up until 2019, The Nation was directly affiliated with the nonprofit media outfit The Nation Institute, which had in fact received at least $1,349,000 from Soros’s organizations between 2004 and 2019, according to Foundation Directory Online data.

In January 2019, it was announced that The Nation Institute was officially rebranding to become the Type Media Center to expand beyond its connections to the magazine. Type Media Center Executive Director and CEO Taya Kitman, said in a statement then that “When the Nation Institute was founded more than 50 years ago, we were a modest organization affiliated with the Nation Magazine — but that name no longer reflects the breadth and impact of what we do today.”

Wolf and Wright instead opted to downplay the connection altogether and do some free PR for the Soros empire: “Both Open Society Foundations and Ford Foundations have condemned Kirk’s killing and all political violence, and neither currently funds The Nation … When Vance said Open Society Foundations supports The Nation, he was likely referring to three grants to a nonprofit associated with the magazine between 2016 and 2022, including to fund an investigative journalism fellowship.”

Fact-check: The nonprofit, which the CNN writers conveniently left unnamed to avoid the clear symmetry between the two entities, had been in fact connected to the magazine for over 50 years. So much for doing due diligence on the research.

But Wolf and Wright used the incident to then target everybody around the world who’s ever called Soros out for his fomenting of political chaos in the U.S. and abroad:

Whenever there are protests that target his policies, Trump is likely to allege they are organized by paid, professional protesters and he frequently invokes Soros. As do conservative leaders in other countries where Open Society Foundations are active, including his native Hungary, where the right-wing leader Viktor Orban has a particular dislike of Soros and ejected Open Society Foundations from the country. Elon Musk has said Soros ‘hates humanity’ … Soros is frequently maligned as a “globalist” who secretly manipulates international finance, which many interpret as antisemitism.

How Wolf and Wright can accuse Soros critics of being antisemitic when the leftist billionaire has openly funded groups that celebrated Hamas slaughtering Jews on October 7 is flat-out insane.

Just a day before CNN’s Soros-apologizing propaganda was published, the Capital Research Center released an explosive report detailing how the Soros empire gave over $80 million at least to pro-terrorist organizations between those based in the U.S. and abroad. For example, per Mauro, the Soros machine “funneled more than $2.3 million into Al-Haq, a nongovernmental organization (NGO) based in the West Bank and long accused of ties to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), which the European Union and the United States designate as a foreign terrorist organization.”

See the problem yet?

But all of this makes sense in light of MRC Business’s 2023 report on Soros providing at least $131 million to 253 media organizations around the world, some of which are explicitly connected to prominent journalists, such as CNN Chief International Anchor Christiane Amanpour. CNN, in effect, is just simply providing more evidence that Soros’s propaganda powerhouse is real and will do anything to shield the billionaire from warranted criticism.
