Producer Confirms CNN Journalists’ ‘Automatic Bias’ Toward Conservatives
Project Veritas strikes again.

Project Veritas is back with another undercover sting and so is CNN supervising producer John Bonifield, the man in the first video who admitted the news network pushed the “bullsh*t” Russia narrative as a “witch hunt” against President Trump. In James O’Keefe’s latest release, Bonifield confirms what most of us already know: the media is absolutely, wholeheartedly, and comprehensively biased toward conservatives.
“I think CNN, to some degree, does a poor job reaching out to find those voices and giving them a fair crack at the whip,” Bonifield is captured saying. “Where we fail are covering the stories of the people who think differently, people who don’t want to have transgender surgery paid for in their state, who don’t want transgender bathrooms, who want to see abortion banned.”
The video was released the same day President Trump announced a ban on transgender service members and O’Keefe included clips from CNN criticizing the move, calling it “the very definition of discrimination” and “abominable,” just to prove Bonifield's point.
Bonifield then explains exactly how CNN reporters go about their jobs when interviewing conservatives:
“What usually happens is they ask them really pointed questions, really demeaning, interrogative kind of exchanges. And I don’t think they always get a fair shake. There’s an automatic bias presented against them.”
“These aren’t racists, these aren’t people that are beating people, these are people who have a view of the world that’s just different than a lot of journalists,” Bonifield added. “And journalists approach them with a certain level of bias.”
That’s putting it mildly.
