CNN Attempts Surreptitious Assault on Natalie Winters, but She Counters Effectively with Benedictive Biden Quip

A Clash of Egos: CNN vs. Natalie Winters, a Rising Star

In a surprising turn of events, CNN's Donie O'Sullivan hoped to catch White House correspondent Natalie Winters off guard with a question that he believed would be his golden ticket. However, things didn't go as planned.

24-year-old Natalie Winters, who reports from the White House for Steve Bannon's War Room podcast, has recently found herself in the limelight, garnering attention from mainstream media outlets like CNN and the New York Times.

In a scene reminiscent of a schoolyard brawl, O'Sullivan questioned, "Are you a real journalist?" The gallery murmured their thoughts, some whispering, "Donie, this is it! You've got her!"

But Winters was far from cornered. Instead, she delivered a retort that left the mollycoddled CNN staff, who've been defending a President perceived as not quite all there, visibly flustered.

"I'd say the group over there spent, what was it, four years covering for someone who was essentially... let's just say, not at his best, and that's being charitable with my description of him," Winters shot back, referring to President Joe Biden.

"So to all those people who are up in arms over new media voices, you guys failed, and that's why we're here." Winters' statement echoed through the room before the mic hit the ground with a thud.

Remember the time when the White House and CNN attacked newer media outlets over deceptive Biden video edits?

It's rather ironic for CNN to take the role of "Are you a journalist?" taskmaster, given their questionable history with this media giant.

When Biden stumbled or acted confused during public events, the White House and CNN were quick to accuse newer outlets of using deceitful video edits, painting Biden as a dementia patient. When a critic shared clips that highlighted Biden's gaffes, they were denounced as manipulated or taken out of context.

CNN was an ardent defender of their mainstay. Now they question the journalist status of Winters. One might wonder, why not ask the same of Taylor Lorenz? Donie interviewed this former Washington Post writer this month, who glorified an accused murderer.

The public's reaction to Winters silencing Donie and CNN is priceless
