“CNN is the first US network allowed into the country since the start of the war, and I do want to point out CNN operates in Iran only with government permission.”
Ok everyone, time to put your thinking caps on… Why do you think the IRGC chose CNN as the first to enter Iran?

How does a regime shut down the internet for millions, yet still grant selective access to foreign media for “on-the-ground” reporting?
Iranians have been cut off from the world. Publishing narratives facilitated by the regime risks amplifying propaganda.
Shame on you

CNN should be declared the propaganda wing of the IRGC and all of their assets seized.

Does he have a good workman's comp policy?

Well, they are on the same side. They both hate American ideals, Christians, Trump and the rights of citizens to bear arms.
Brothers in hate.

CNN is aiding terrorists, and they want us to praise them for it?

Like Hanoi Jane in North Vietnam. Useful idiots.

Because FOX only has beautiful, intelligent, female humans (and not goats) gracing their network?

People are going to rage about this, and yeah, the Iranians clearly want to push propaganda .
But I can't blame CNN for taking the opportunity, simply for ratings.
If you're old enough to remember Desert Storm coverage, you should remember Wolf Blitzer and Bernie Shaw broadcasting from the Baghdad Hilton while F117 stealth fighters were hitting things. That was absolute gold. Wolf was at the window giving good, detailed play-by-play, kept saying "and come see this" about anti aircraft fire and tracers, etc.
And Bernie was under the desk in the fetal position.

Well, they are on the same team.

CNN spread false propaganda from Iran at the height of the population massacres downplaying the situation.

Erica Hill - I remember when she was on TechTV back in 2000-2001. I loved that channel. Leo Laporte and the fellas. She did their "news".

Very tight allies. Same morals, same goals. Having a branch of the democrat party there is a strong selling point for the dems.

but honestly, Wolf was great in Desert Storm. Christiane Amanpour, too. As I remember, she was imbedded somewhere that kept getting hit by Scuds, and every other time she was reporting, she had to put on a gas mask. Trying to remember who else was involved with that.

Not CNN, but how could you leave out the Scud Stud?

wow this brings back memories..
Looks like the video is 5 hrs long. It's the initial CNN coverage of Desert Storm, from back in 91. Neat shite, some old-school reporting.
