CNN is at it again. Their dopey reporter Chris Cuomo accused Cruz of being afraid to appear on the network to discuss the Florida shooting but Cruz gave them an interview yesterday which they haven’t aired for some reason.
FOX News reports:
Ted Cruz accuses CNN of sitting on interview after Chris Cuomo said he’s ‘afraid’ to appear on network
Ted Cruz wants CNN to know he’s no coward.
The Texas senator on Friday blasted the liberal news network for sitting on an interview he gave it even as “New Day” host Chris Cuomo was accusing him of being “afraid” to appear on the network.

CNN even displayed an on-screen graphic on Thursday morning criticizing Cruz, Florida Gov. Rick Scott and Marco Rubio for appearing on Fox News but not CNN with the headline.
That's funny, I spoke to CNN for 15 mins yesterday about proactive solutions to prevent gun violence (like passing the Grassley-Cruz bill—which Dems filibustered—that would add $300 million for school safety) yet CNN has aired NONE of it. Why not air the (entire) interview? https://t.co/c4GZcqTbs7

“What are they afraid of?” Cuomo, said. “They’re all on Fox, the mothership, because they don’t want to be asked about [gun control].”
Cruz initially took to Twitter to explain that he has conducted three separate town hall events on CNN in recent months, an indication he isn’t afraid of the network. Friday, Cuomo was still tweeting about Cruz, so the Republican lawmaker fired back – claiming CNN never aired an interview that he gave on Thursday afternoon.

Why doesn’t CNN just come out and admit that they work for the Democrats?
