CNN's Over-Hyped McDougal Interviews Bombs
CNN's dimwitted ass-kissing apologist Brian Stelter actually asked "Did Trump oust McMaster and hire Bolton to distract from CNN's interview with Karen McDougal?

Well if Trump did, then all that effort was wasted, because as it turns out the McDougal interview was not only a dud, it left most of the CNN panelist regretting that they'll never be able to get back that hour they just wasted.

On Thursday’s Anderson Cooper 360, CNN aired their over-hyped interview with Playboy Playmate Karen McDougal who says she had a longtime affair with President Trump in the mid-2000s.

Shortly before the presidential election, the Wall Street Journal published a story saying American Media Inc., the company that owns The National Enquirer, paid $150,000 to McDougal, but did not run her story in a tabloid maneuver known as "catch and kill." The contract, according to the Journal, did not require the Enquirer to run the story and required McDougal's silence.

During the panel discussion immediately afterward, CNN journalists and assorted commentators didn’t know what to make of it. Most of them actually ripped into her for misleading reporters about her initial accusations against America Media Inc. (AMI) who owned the rights to her story.

The first question from host Anderson Cooper was directed to CNN legal commentator Mark Geragos about the legitimacy of her lawsuit against AMI. Geragos said he was baffled trying to figure out what her end game was since she wanted the rights back and said she didn't want money.

“I don't understand it. I'm perplexed by it. I don't understand why she's doing this interview-- with apologies to you. I think it could have been handled differently. And it’s just inexplicable to me,” 

While most of the panel was confused by McDougal, former Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm (D) who feigned distress, saying,

“This was an astonishing interview. I feel like I'm trying to grasp. I feel like I almost want to take a shower; only because have we ever seen something like this where we're talking about the president of the United States.”

Apparently, Granholm must have fallen down and hit her head? How else could you explain her 1990's memory loss?
