CNN Fails To Disclose That Contributor Jason Miller Is Still Advising Trump
Published
In a May 18 interview, CNN anchor John Berman failed to disclose that contributor Jason Miller, who formerly was a top communications aide to President Donald Trump during his campaign, is advising Trump once again, even asking Miller what he would do if he was “still advising him officially.” Politico reported on May 17 that Miller “slid back into the president’s group of advisers” and that he “has visited the White House multiple times and regularly talks with Trump by phone.” The report also noted that he is now one of Trump’s “favorite surrogates and informal advisers.” CNN hired Miller after Trump spent months trying to delegitimize the network and repeatedly called it “fake news.” Berman failed to mention this reporting, instead asking Miller to give hypothetical advice to Trump.
