Chris Wallace, Jonah Goldberg, CNN, Jeff Zucker and Moral Clarity

By Rich Kozlovich

On February 6th Paul Bois posted this piece, Report: Chris Wallace Upset over Jeff Zucker Ouster at CNN, Uncertain About His Future saying:

Former Fox News anchor Chris Wallace is reportedly “irate” over the ouster of CNN president Jeff Zucker and now feels uncertain about his future at the network.  Speaking with Radar Online, a TV insider said Wallace has been “second-guessing his decision” to leave Fox News for the upcoming CNN+ streaming platform in the wake of Zucker’s resignation for his undisclosed affair with his subordinate, Allison Gollust. “Chris is the type of person who makes it known if he doesn’t like something,” the source told the outlet. “He went over there for Zucker and now Zucker is gone. Wallace feels that he has been stiffed. He’s got no staff, no Executive Producer and the guy he gave up a prized gig for has just walked out the door.”............Wallace has no protection. ...............“I am thrilled to join CNN+. After decades in broadcast and cable news, I am excited to explore the world of streaming”

And he's all upset now.  Schadenfreude, Zucker was the guy who ran CNN into the ground over the last nine years.  This is the guy he praises!  Well, let's face it, Wallace is a self-absorbed arrogant snot who somehow thought he was really special, and better than all the others at Fox, all of whom were beneath him, including the audience who watched Fox, but fewer and fewer watched him.  He's even worse than his father.  

And now it turns out another arrogant snot, Jonah Goldberg, along with Steve Hayes who left Fox is going to NBC, acting like great moralists as they marched out from Fox claiming Fox's Patriot Purge series was:

 "a collection of incoherent conspiracy-mongering, riddled with factual inaccuracies, half-truths, deceptive imagery, and damning omissions” ..........."the release of 'Patriot Purge' wasn’t an isolated incident, it was merely the most egregious example of a longstanding trend."....accusing them of amplifying "the false claims and bizarre narratives of Donald Trump" for the past five years.

So he went to CNN for moral clarity?  

CNN, a network that's totally recognized (outside the leftist echo chamber of irrational head nodders) for lies, conspiracies, misinformation and blatant Democrat and leftist partisanship, so they left Fox because these two think CNN and NBC are more "honest and moral" than Fox?  Do I understand that correctly?

Yet the nation is watching Fox and abandoning CNN, so what does America see these false conservatives don't?    Do these people live in an alternate universe? 

"Fox News ratings have dominated for a remarkable twenty years.  It is actually CNN that festers in an alternate universe awash with toxic radiation; in fact, the network is imploding into a fake news black hole".  

Or, are they nothing more than false conservatives who are in reality leftist hypocrites?

I read Goldberg's book Liberal Fascism and was totally impressed.  I don't know what happened to him after that, but he's lost his mind, and his audience.  Will leftists embrace him?  Maybe, but being embraced by the left is like being embraced by a bone crushing anaconda. 

Now it's being reported that there's an effort to pay hush money to Chris Cuomo to the tune of $9 million, presumably to prevent more exposure of what Zucker and CNN have been up to.  So while attempting to attain the moral high ground and "graciously" acknowledging:

"Fox News still does real reporting, and there are still responsible conservatives providing valuable opinion and analysis," they wrote. "But the voices of the responsible are being drowned out by the irresponsible."

And just who are these "irresponsible" voices on Fox?  Most likely he's referring to Hannity, Carlson, Ingraham and Janine Pirro, all of whom are all very outspoken conservatives and who keep being shown to be accurate and correct in their views.  Truth and Time are on the same side, and they're carrying the day with America, Chris Wallace and his views are going to become meaningless. 

Okay, so let's take a look at the network Wallace and Goldberg joined over moral considerations.  

On February 5 John Nolte published this piece, CNN’s Pantheon of Creeps, making a great comparison between them and the people at Fox for moral clarity, and we already know about Zucker and his mistress, to then we have Jeffrey Toobin who was caught masturbating on a Zoom call. Allison Gollust, Zucker's paramour who rose right to the top (but it wasn't because she was sleeping with the boss) while both were married to other people.  

Then there's Chris Cuomo who Nolte describes in this way:

Chris Cuomo, the dilettante little brother of Andrew Cuomo,  encouraged political violence, physically threatened his critics, grabbed a woman’s ass, sought to destroy the credibility of his brother’s dozen or so accusers, ran around New York while infected with COVID (when New York was Pandemic Ground Zero), lied to CNN viewers about remaining in his basement quarantine, staged a phony exit from that basement quarantine, and was repeatedly caught not wearing a mask after shaming others to wear masks. 

Don Lemon is accused of "stuffing his hands down his pants and shoving his stink-filled fingers under a man’s nose" and  Michael Avenatti, who CNN promoted over and over again is now a felon for his criminal activities.   Then there's John Griffin, a former producer at CNN.  He's facing "sex-trafficking" charges involving minors along with anther former producer, Rick Saleeby, who has been accused of having sex with a minor. 

Then there's Andrew Cuomo who CNN worked to cover "up his scandals, demonized his critics, and blatantly sought to mythologize him into a 2020 presidential contender. Then, in August of 2021, it all came crashing down when Cuomo was forced to resign after an investigation by New York’s attorney general (and fellow Democrat) found that he sexually harassed 11 women.

And this is the network these people are going to for moral clarity!
