CNN\u2019s Brian Stelter portrays himself as a media analyst, but more often than not, what he actually does is media defense.<\/p>\n
Stelter sees almost everything through the lens of media vs. Trump, and in the case of the shocking new reports about the liberal outlet Politico receiving millions in tax dollars,<\/a> he had a completely predictable take.<\/p>\n In Stelter\u2019s view, the media is the victim here, because of course.<\/p>\n This clip of White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt talking about Politico got a lot of notice today.<\/p>\n .@PressSec<\/a>: “I can confirm that the more than $8 million taxpayer dollars that have gone to essentially subsidizing subscriptions to Politico on the American taxpayers’ dime will no longer be happening.” pic.twitter.com\/9uA1imuKtt<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Rapid Response 47 (@RapidResponse47) February 5, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n This was Brian Stelter\u2019s take:<\/p>\n A symbolic stick-it-to-the-media gesture https:\/\/t.co\/p50FO2WIOG<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Brian Stelter (@brianstelter) February 5, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Really, Brian?

Do you think he would be dismissing this story if it was FOX News receiving millions of tax dollars? Not a chance. He would be the first person to call it a scandal and everyone knows it, including Brian.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
