“CNN cuts feed right after guest cites refugee crime stats,” by Kyle Olson, American Mirror, March 6, 2017:
There CNN goes again.During a segment on Donald Trump’s travel ban from terror-prone countries, the news network mysteriously lost its guest as he made a point about refugees.During an interview with Dana Bash, Congressman Scott Taylor cited a sobering statistic about refugees — and seconds later, his feed from Miami disappeared.“Just today, the FBI comes out and says 30% — 30% — of their domestic terrorism cases that they’re investigating are folks who are refugees,” Taylor said.“It’s important not to label all refugees bad people — that’s not why I’m here, but…”Just as he uttered those words, he wasn’t there.Multi-colored test bars were in his place.Bash blamed the “TV gremlins” for the incident.It wasn’t the first time CNN mysteriously lost its feed as someone was running counter to the network’s editorial narrative.After playing a clip of the president in February saying he was unaware of discussions his National Security Advisor reportedly had with the adversary, Sanders was asked if it was a problem and he said, “Well, I don’t know. Maybe he was watching CNN fake news. What do you think?” he said with the smirk, apparently attempting to crack a joke.After an awkward silence, and Burnett smiling and saying, “You don’t buy it…” Sanders replied, “That was a joke.”But the mystery gremlins apparently didn’t find it funny.Instantaneously, Sanders earpiece stopped working.“You don’t buy what he said, obviously,” Burnett continued.Sanders sat staring, mouth agape.“Erin?” he said.“Yes,” she responded. “I’m sorry, senator, you obviously don’t buy what he said.”“Are we on?” Sanders said, looking off camera.“Looks like we lost connection with Sen. Sanders so let’s try to get that back up,” Burnett concluded before going to a commercial break.Two days later, President Trump weighed in on the strange occurrence.“While on FAKE NEWS CNN, Bernie Sanders was cut off for using the term fake news to describe the network. They said technical difficulties!” Trump tweeted….
