Chris Cillizza is sounding more and more based the longer his firing from CNN becomes … maybe they do put something in the water coolers at CNN to keep the hive mind alive. For example, Cillizza recently blamed the White House for the "shameful" cover-up of the Robert Hur tapes that showed why he called President Joe Biden an elderly man with a poor memory. He blamed the media — himself VERY much included — for not working hard enough "to get around the smokescreen the Biden people were putting up around him." It wasn't intentional activism on the part of the D.C. press.

As Twitchy reported earlier, ABC News suspended Terry Moran after he posted to X that Stephen Miller was "richly endowed with the capacity for hatred. He's a world-class hater." Cillizza, who's said for the billionth time that reporters don't root for a side, says he hates absolutely everything about the Moran story, including that "the Trump folks" would immediately "weaponize" it and use it as evidence that ALL reporters are biased. 

The post continues:

… agree that a) Terry shouldn’t have said it and b) Miller shouldn’t have immediately moved to weaponize it.

There's that word "weaponize" again.

Republicans pounced on Moran's post. They seized on it.

Cillizza's getting a lot of heat from progressives for caving and not backing up Moran for speaking the truth. 

I hate that we all can't agree that Moran shouldn't have said it, period. What was Miller supposed to do?
