Smollett Hired by CNN

"Smollett has exactly the kind of skills we look for at our fine organization," said CNN correspondent Brian Stelter. "He picked a narrative, made up all the relevant facts and details, and stuck with his story in spite of glaring holes in the plot. It's hard to find people who understand our core values here at CNN, but Smollett seems to be just the guy for us."

Once he gets done with his current court case, he will be too busy working with Netflix to work at CNN.

This may be real - CNN just lost two contributors and the case against this OBVIOUSLY guilty POS has been dropped.

Must be he made a donation to the DNC........

Very strange turn of events. The Cook County prosecutor who orginally recused herself from the case, unrecuses herself to drop charges against Smollet. Her actions go against grand jury findings and are objected to by Chicago law enforcement officials.

Politics? Is there a two-tier legal system in this country, one for the famous and ordinary citizens? Did Smollet give-up information on others?

The Godfather Rahm Emanuel, mayor of Chicago, a whitewash of justice, there is no accountability in the system, while speaking of the Smollett case being dropped by the State.

Wow.

Obviously guilty people who made a name for themselves on the boob tube are completely exonerated all the time!
