MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell unloaded on CNN CEO Mark Thompson and his network’s right-wing pundit in a brutal criticism over its coverage of President Donald Trump. “CNN is already owned by a right-wing Trump supporter and has compromised itself accordingly,” O’Donnell told viewers Monday on his show “Last Word,” claiming that everyone who remains at the network after anchor Jim Acosta left earlier this year is “much more careful in anything they might even think of saying about” the president. The MSNBC host went on to say the network “eagerly pays a Trump supporter to lie on CNN every day and night for Donald Trump,” claiming the network did so during his first presidential campaign. He specifically attacked Scott Jennings, a pundit known for his conservative takes on “NewsNight with Abby Phillip.” “The head of CNN for the last three years, hired by the Trump-supporting owner and operator of CNN, is an Englishman who thinks paying Scott Jennings to lie about Donald Trump is money very well spent,” O’Donnell said. Jennings has been at the network since 2017, starting during the first Trump administration and working under different CEOs. Thompson, the “Englishman” O’Donnell references, was put in charge of the network in 2023.

Lawrence O’Donnell torched Trump Regime-appeasing station CNN and MAGA hack Scott Jennings in particular.
