A top CNN director admitted in a secretly-recorded conversation that the network is what amounts to an information ministry for the Black Lives Matter movement, which has been responsible for mass riots and destruction ever since the overdose death of George Floyd.
Part 3 of Project Veritas’ exposé on the hate-Trump network features technical director Charlie Chester continuing his confession that the network manufactures left-wing tropes and narratives.
The first part of the series featured Chester’s confession that the network purposely lied about President Trump during last year’s campaign, and was, indeed, a propaganda machine with a single mission: to get rid of POTUS 45.
Part 2 showed Chester’s remarkably honest admission that CNN stokes fear among viewers and manipulates them by gaslighting.
In Part 3, Chester admitted that the network is hiding the truth about the latest leftist narrative: that “white supremacy” has caused a number of recent attacks against Asians.
In fact, blacks are the culprits in most such attacks.
But CNN, Chester said, must help BLM.

After PV chief James O’Keefe tweeted the latest installment, Twitter suspended his and PV’s accounts.
“Optics” Not Good
PV’s Part 3 opens with this comment from Chester, who suggested that once he learned that blacks had committed most of the recent anti-Asian attacks, he had to stop himself from looking to deeply:
I was trying to do some research on the Asian hate, like the people [who] are getting attacked and whatnot. A bunch of black men have been attacking Asians. I’m like “What are you doing? Like, we [CNN] are trying to help BLM, you’re going to …”
Chester’s fear? It wasn’t just that telling the truth that blacks are the culprits would not advance BLM’s Marxist agenda, but instead that conservatives would use the information to smear blacks as a race.
“I mean, it’s individuals. It’s not a people, you know” Chester said:
The optics of that are not good. These [are] little things that are enough to set back movements, because the far [right] will start to latch on and create stories like “criminalizing an entire people,” you know, it’s just easier headlines that way, I guess.…
I’ve noticed that you’ll get headlines that, you know, might lump people together as opposed to focusing on the individual.
That’s what Trump ended up doing with like the “China Virus,” and that put so much blame on an entire group of people, as opposed to, you know, a few careless individuals.
Thus, he suggested, CNN won’t report on racial matters unless whites are the offenders, apropos of his alarm that blacks are behind the wave of anti-Asian hate.
Shaping Perceptions
When the undercover reporter asked about white vs. black “shooters” and which one would receive the most coverage, Chester admitted that the anti-Asian hate story lost its purchase once leftists in the media learned most of the culprits were black.
“Yeah, for the longest while, the story was like — people were like lapping up that it was like, you know, white guys for so long,” Chester said:
I haven’t seen anything about focusing on the color of people’s skins that aren’t white. They just aren’t saying anything.… All the sudden that story loses a little steam, and they just like, leave it be.
Chester didn’t know why, he said, but “it’s gotta be trends, what people will latch on to.”
Or, what media leftists “will latch on to.”
Propaganda, Chester said, “can shape an entire people’s perception about anything [depending] on how you do it.”
Leftist Machine
Peddling propaganda, Chester said in Part 1, is what CNN does.
During last year’s presidential campaign, he said, the network purposely tried to portray Democrat candidate Joe Biden as a “young geriatric,” full of vim and vigor, who jogged and wore aviator shades. The opposite, of course, was true. Biden barely campaigned, and appeared to have lapsed into dementia.
Yet CNN portrayed Trump, who vigorously campaigned and went toe-to-toe with media leftists in unscripted news conferences, as an aging man unfit for office.
“We brought in so many medical people to tell a story that was all speculation, that he was neurologically damaged, and he was losing it,” Chester confessed:
We were creating a story there that we didn’t know anything about. That’s what — I think that’s propaganda.
Unhappily for CNN, Twitter’s attempt to suppress the truth about the hate-Trump network won’t contain the damage.
