Stelter Says CNN Must Hold Media Accountable as Show Ends

They have no intension of doing so. The corporate media is not held accountable. Truth takes a back seat to the bottom line:

“Reliable Sources” host Brian Stelter insisted Sunday that he'll still be rooting for CNN even after his show was canceled this week, but stressed that it was important for the network and others to hold the media accountable.

CNN gave Stelter the chance to host a final episode of the 30-year Sunday morning program on the media even after it was learned this week that he and the show would be exiting — a gesture that's relatively rare in television.

Stelter said that it was not partisan to stand up for decency, democracy and dialogue.
​
“It's not partisan to stand up to demagogues,” he said. “It's required. It's patriotic. We must make sure we don't give platforms to those who are lying to our faces. But we also must make sure we are representing the total spectrum of debate and representing what's going on in the country and the world.”
