CNN has a massive bigotry problem as a second paid contributor is defending Donald Trump’s attack on Jews.

After former Trump campaign manager, and current Trump CNN ringer, Corey Lewandowski defended Trump’s bigoted Star of David attack on Jews, fellow paid CNN contributor Jeffrey Lord defended Trump’s bigotry:

Keith Olbermann helpfully debunked Lord’s lie:

There are bigots everywhere. There are even bigots who ignore reality and defend Donald Trump.

The problem for viewers is that CNN is has two of these bigots on their payroll. Viewers can’t trust CNN to objectively report the news if their management is willing to pay individuals who support the bigotry of Donald Trump.

Viewers should be outraged by this behavior. Advocacy groups should be up in arms over Lewandowski and Lord’s comments.

To pander to Donald Trump, CNN has given itself a huge bigotry problem. What Trump did with the Star of David tweet went beyond politics. Trump supporters can’t spin it away by whining about political correctness. The Republican presidential nominee tweeted a symbol that is associated with anti-Semitism and the Holocaust.

CNN is paying people to spread Trump’s bigotry, and it must stop now.
