Biden COVID Death Counter Crosses 110,000; CNN Slammed For Removing Counter for Biden


3,498 views

Do the Democrats actually want unity?

Because if they did, then they would treat Joe Biden the same way that they treated President Trump?

During President Trump’s first term in office, CNN put a “COVID tracker” on the screen.

Any time you turned on CNN, you would see the counter ticking away.

It showed you new cases, new deaths… and of course, the total count here in the United States.

But something mysterious happened…

After Joe Biden was inaugurated, suddenly the COVID tracker mysteriously disappeared from CNN.

Seriously…

Turn on your TV and put it to CNN right now!

We guarantee you that the COVID tracker that has been on their network for the last year will no longer be there!

Well, the fine folks at the Washington Free Beacon have started a Biden COVID death tracker…

For equality and fairness.

According to the Free Beacon:

CNN will likely stop counting, so the Free Beacon is picking up the slack.

110,179 Americans have died from COVID-19 since President Joe Biden took office.

You would think that CNN would still want to keep the tracker on their TV screen?

Why?

Well, because CNN’s top executives appear to be rejoicing that COVID is good for the ratings.

That’s right…

People are dying.

But CNN is happy that their ratings are way up!

Fox News has more details on this disgusting report:

Coronavirus has killed over 500,00 Americans but CNN’s parent company managed to find a silver lining to the pandemic — it’s lifted the liberal network’s ratings.

WarnerMedia CEO Jason Kilar was asked on Thursday if CNN, which falls under WarnerMedia, has the ability to keep its ratings momentum going during the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media and Telecom Conference.

“It turns out that pandemic is a pretty big part of the news cycle, and that’s not going away anytime soon,” Kilar said, noting that things are different these days “from a political drama perspective” but luckily for CNN and WarnerMedia they still have the deadly virus to fall back on.

“If you take a look at the ratings and the performance, its going well,” Kilar continued. “And I think it’s going well because, A, the team at CNN is doing a fantastic job. And B, it turns out that the pandemic and the way that we can help inform and contextualize the pandemic, it turns out it’s really good for ratings.”

Despite the coronavirus uptick, CNN still finished behind both Fox News and MSNBC among total viewers during the month of February.

While most Americans are eager to return to normal, pre-pandemic life, CNN’s parent company is enjoying the benefits of an uptick in viewership.

CNN did not immediately respond to a request for comment on if the network is concerned about post-pandemic ratings or whether it would push a particular narrative to keep the ratings momentum going.

Kilar later walked back his remark when confronted on social media.

Can you imagine if anyone at Fox News said that?

They would be accused of being a “death cult.”

Oh wait… the Democrats are already saying that!
