Don't worry everyone, CNN will correct its course for a Joe Biden Town Hall

That's when they will do everything the opposite of what they did for Trump.

They will make sure they have a unfriendly journalist questioning him,

they will fill the audience with angry people who do not support Biden

So don't you worry about CNN.
When there's a Democratic candidate on their airwaves they will do everything they can to try to reclaim their journalistic credibility

lie. Sorry but the fact that she even thought she could handle this tells me she is far over confident in her abilities.

that CNN could only host town halls for him and for no other candidate. He knows they're desperate and I can see them signing off on that deal for the access.

Donald Trump on his Truth Social website bragged about the ratings for his CNN town hall.

“People are criticizing CNN for giving me a Forum to tell the TRUTH,” the former president wrote.

“I believe it was a very smart thing that they did, with Sky High Ratings that they haven’t seen in a very long time. It was by far the biggest Show of the night, the week, and the month!”

Perhaps so, but Wednesday night’s town hall attracted fewer viewers than Joe Biden’s 2020 CNN town hall and previous Trump events on Fox News, Salon reports.....

It ranked "2nd among total viewers, closely behind CNN's 2020 Joe Biden Town Hall (9/17/20, 7:59p-9:15p; 3.465 million)" according a network's rankings memo obtained by Salon.
