CNN reported:
Former President Donald Trump will participate in a CNN presidential town hall next week in New Hampshire, the network announced Monday.
The event, hosted by “CNN This Morning” anchor Kaitlan Collins and airing at 9 p.m. ET on May 10, will feature the former president taking questions from New Hampshire Republicans and undeclared voters who plan to vote in the 2024 GOP presidential primary.
Trump is the present front-runner in the Republican field but has been indicted in Manhattan in a case involving hush money payments, made during the 2016 campaign, to women who claimed they had extramarital affairs with Trump, which he denies. He also is being sued by former advice columnist E. Jean Carroll, who alleges that Trump sexually assaulted her in the mid-1990s and subsequently defamed her after she went public. Trump has also denied Carroll’s allegations.
MSNBC commentator Keith Olbermann slammed CNN for giving President Trump a platform in a whiney tweet.
“If there was ONE consensus about 2024 it was that ‘covering’ Trump the way they did in 2016 (handing him live blocks of free airtime with no fact-checking possible) was irresponsible,” Olbermann wrote. “And CNN’s doing it”
