CNN Launches Personal Attack at Kirstie Alley. She Fires Back.

CNN faced backlash on Friday after the network, rated the most polarizing media company in the U.S., attacked an actress in an unprofessional manner after the actress tweeted about the network’s COVID-19 news coverage.

“I now know why my personal friends who walk around in SHEER TERROR of contracting Covid are simply CNN viewers!” Kirstie Alley wrote on Twitter. “I decided to watch CNN myself to get a their viewpoint and oh my God DID I EVER!!!! IF YOU TOO WANT TO LIVE IN TERROR WATCH CNN!! FEAR OF DYING IS THEIR MANTRA! OMG!”

CNN’s public relations team responded directly to Alley’s tweet, writing: “Kirstie, you are welcome to change the channel – just like countless viewers did every time ‘Veronica’s Closet’ came on TV. But don’t downplay the loss of nearly 230K American lives. And please, wear a mask.”

While left-wing Twitter accounts applauded the tweet from the news organization, many other’s criticized CNN for a lack of professionalism.

Political strategist Chris Barron responded by writing: “CNN is run by children.”

Former NFL quarterback Derek Anderson slammed CNN, writing: “Your station is f***ing laughable. Scaring American people with bullsh** over and over. 99%”
