What are the chances that Scott Jennings loses his job if it turns out he's lying about McConnell.
I was thinking about that this morning and researched what happened to Dan Rather when he used information regarding George Bush's time in the Reserves, which the final summation on the internet claims was faulty. I'm not here to debate the quality of the information, though I know in my heart that Dan Rather was a reporter with integrity and if he used faulty information he did it unknowingly.
On the other hand, Scott Jennings is out there allegedly slinging porkers. If he lied about talking to McConnell, his job should be on the line. But I realized that FoxNews is not a TV Station with integrity, so I figured nothing would come out of it, even if he intentionally lied.
But, there is one hope, that maybe I'm wrong:
Ex-GOP strategist demands CNN fire Scott Jennings if McConnell story unravels
A former Republican operative on Friday warned CNN conservative pundit Scott Jennings that he could lose his job if his claims about Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) prove false.
After video footage obtained by CNN showed an ambulance loading the Republican lawmaker inside — nearly a month after he was first hospitalized — Cheri Jacobus suggested that CNN should take action against Jennings, who claimed that he spoke to McConnell Tuesday for about 17 minutes.
"If @ScottJenningsKY is proven to have lied about having a nearly 20 minute phone conversation with McConnell, @cnn needs to fire him immediately," Jacobus wrote on X.
Jennings told CNN anchor Kasie Hunt that the senator, whom he has known since he was a teenager, was speaking to him on the phone during the apparent call. He described it as a "wide-ranging conversation" about Iran, and his "voice sounded strong."
