CNN is recruiting for interns at CNN news on two conservative websites run by the Liberty Institute, the right-wing fake journalism "school" that "trained" Jeff Gannon! It seems that CNN is a campaign to out right-wing Faux News. Not only do we have government sponsored propaganda being aired as "news", but now CNN is openly TRYING to recruit biased journalism interns.

I posted this in the general discussions area earlier today, where a DU member revealed that the woman listed as the contact for these ads may be operating out of a GOP front group in Virginia. We need to get to the bottom of this, DUers. Please help! I've already alerted Media Matters and Democrats.com. If anyone here has contacts at DailyKos, the DNC, or anywhere else that can help get word out on this, please help.
Also, some DU sleuths found that other networks also have ads posted at this site. Just how many are seeking fake, biased journalists? Or is this an outside plot by right-wingers to infiltrate the networks? How many already have? This would certainly explain the far right tilt of the network "news", which is anything but.
