Podcaster Joe Rogan slammed CNN as a propagandist network following a week-long debacle that culminated with the firing of Chris Cuomo.
“The way I look at CNN now is so different from the way I looked at CNN 15-20 years ago,” Rogan said on podcast #1744. “I used to look at them as like, this is how I get the news. This is unbiased, professional news.”
CNN suspended Cuomo indefinitely last week for his involvement in his older brother’s sexual misconduct scandal. Andrew resigned as New York Gov. in August following a barrage of complaints against him.
“I don’t want your ideological slant,” Rogan said. “I don’t want this left-wing propaganda network, which is what CNN has become.”
On Monday, Cuomo announced that he was leaving his SiriusXM show.
“I think CNN is realizing that their ratings are dog shit,” Rogan said. “I think there’s a market for real news. And it’s really hard to find that now. It’s really hard, especially outside of independent sources.”
Cuomo is facing allegations that he sexually harassed a former producer at CNN.
