On Monday, CNN
finallymentioned the incident, but
Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter actually scoffed at how the incident went “viral” and mocked the idea that CNN had been covering up.
“There was video shared on Twitter of a water bottle being thrown at your crew on one occasion,” Stelter said to CNN correspondent Miguel Marquez. “This seems like protesters trying to create trouble. This was a story that went viral in right-wing media. Frankly, they claimed that CNN was covering it up, which is ridiculous.”
