On December 27th CNN Legal Analyst Paul Callen appeared on television to discuss his recent Op-Ed that runs counter to the preferred engineering of CNN executive narrative sellers.
Paul Callen had accepted the CNN-echo chambered position that President Trump was making unfounded accusatory statements toward the FBI and Department of Justice.
However, then Mr. Callen broke the cardinal rule, he actually did some investigating of the claims he was criticizing. To CNN’s horror, Paul Callen came away from his research with an evolved and informed position that Trump was right, and his detractors were wrong.
Callen appeared on a CNN segment with Poppy Harlow to discuss his findings on Wednesday December 27th. At the very end of the segment an obviously uncomfortable Ms. Harlow told viewers they could read Mr. Callen’s Op-Ed for themselves and decide.
.
Except, there was a problem. CNN never published the Op-Ed. However, two days after the interview, around 8:26pm tonight (Friday), the op-ed appears.
No explanation is provided as to why CNN delayed putting out the Callen Op-Ed until late on a Friday night at the end of the week. Obviously, the transparency of ideological motivation speaks for itself. Regardless, you can read it now HERE.
…“I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andy’s office that there’s no way he gets elected – but I’m afraid we can’t take that risk. It’s like an insurance policy in the unlikely event you die before you’re 40.”..
If this were nearly anyone else, I’d say it was just a screw up by some web lackey who’s job it is to hit “publish”. Since it’s CNN, however, it’s pretty much a given that they buried it for 2-days so no one would ever find it or read it as its timeliness was directly linked to the interview.

Op Ed says it was updated this evening, so can’t tell what , if anything changed. Speaks about a lot of the info we know. The end was the supportive part.
“While I rarely agree with much of what the President does or says regarding legal issues, this time he’s got it right. The FBI’s reputation has been severely damaged not by the President’s criticism but by a systematic failure of the bureau’s leadership.
The field agents of the FBI should still retain the trust of the American people. Their honor and dignity has not been compromised; but the bureau’s leadership ranks require a prompt and thorough house cleaning by the new director, Christopher Wray. The bureau’s leadership has forfeited the reputation of a cherished American institution.”
