BREXIT CONTINUES TO BEDEVIL CHRISTIANE AMANPOUR. Ramesh Ponnuru writes at NRO on “Amanpour vs. Hannan, Gove, Brexit, Context:”
Christiane Amanpour has written a defense of her conduct in her CNN interview/debate with Daniel Hannan, which suggests that she understands that it did not go well for her. James Taranto points out Amanpour’s contradictions (and really, was nobody capable of red-penciling her line about “naked political agendas masquerading as news”?).
Go read Taranto. I’d add that on at least two occasions in the article, Amanpour presents quotes from Brexit advocates in a misleading way.
Read the whole thing to spot how Amanpour truncates one of pro-Brexit Justice Minister Michael Gove’s quotes to make him look like an idiot. Amanpour turned into Maureen Dowd so slowly, I hardly even noticed.
