A wild segment on CNN NewsNight with Abby Phillip, AKA “The Thunderdome”, left bare for all to see that the network is now tripling down on dangerous disinformation. Despite being recently found liable and punished for defamation, the once and former World Leader in News persists on smearing Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk by flogging the dead-and-debunked Salute Hoax.
The segment sought to cobble several events together in hopes of bolstering a narrative of Musk as Nazi sympathizer. There is Musk’s speech at the Trump inaugural parade, his use of Nazi names in puns mocking the Salute Hoax, and his subsequent speech to populist-right party Alternative for Germany (AfD). In the face of many mischaracterizations and misrepresentations, “Lonely Scott” Jennings lived up to his nickname and prevailed as the voice of reason.
