George Conway knocks CNN for Trump trial coverage

Conservative commentator George Conway slammed CNN for its coverage of former President Trump’s hush money trial, criticizing the network for what he claimed was the permitting of right-wing “lies” to be told on the air.

Conway, the former Trump ally-turned vocal critic, reflected on his tense conversation on CNN last week with Scott Jennings, a conservative commentator, over the Trump hush money conviction, in which he accused Jennings of “lying” about the charges.

“It’s just wrong,” Conway said in an interview on Greg Sargent’s “The Daily Blast” podcast. “Scott — I don’t think he’s a lawyer, but he was clearly repeating talking points that are coming from somewhere. I suspect from somewhere near Palm Beach, Fla.,” in reference to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club.
