CNN anchor: Spicer and Sanders new TV jobs ‘deserve outrage and backlash’ – Washington Examiner

CNN chief media correspondent Brian Stelter said that the recent jobs taken by Sean Spicer and Sarah Huckabee Sanders deserve extra scrutiny.

Stelter explained that the criticisms the former press secretaries have received are warranted because of President Trump’s consistent habit of misleading the public, with the help of Spicer and Sanders.

“The Trump White House has a record of misleading the public. All administrations spin. This administration lies consistently, whether it’s Sanders, or Spicer, or other White House aides. And it’s all led from the top by a president who lies even about the weather and the time of day. That, I think, is why this deserves outrage and backlash,” he said.

Acknowledging it is not unusual for former White House staffers to get jobs on television, Stelter added it’s not surprising Sanders has a job at Fox News, but also said, “It should still be surprising that somebody who misled the public and defended a man who calls the press ‘the enemy’ would land these types of jobs.”

Stelter also explained why the new jobs concerned him on his Twitter account.
