CNN has been criticized for
airing a report which revealed that an Obama appointee would become
president if Donald Trump was killed during an attack on the
inauguration tomorrow.
Entitled Disaster could put Obama cabinet member in Oval Office,
the report admits that there is no specific threat targeting the
inauguration, but goes on to speculate about “who would be in charge if
an attack hit the incoming president….just as the transfer of power is
underway”.
An individual named the
“designated presidential successor” will not attend the inauguration as a
security precaution, “but it won’t be a Trump cabinet secretary….it
will be an Obama appointee,” reports CNN.
The report emphasizes that “a
president from the prior administration” will take power if there is an
attack due to the fact that none of Trump’s cabinet secretaries have
been confirmed yet.
According to
CNN, the designated presidential successor is likely to be Tom Shannon,
the Under Secretary For Political Affairs, and an Obama appointee.
The
report teases the potential for an attack on the inauguration by
asserting it would create “chaos” and “high theater,” before airing
clips from ABC’s Designated Survivor show in which Kiefer
Sutherland plays an obscure cabinet secretary who is “unexpectedly
thrust into the presidency after an attack at the capitol during a State
of the Union address.”
Given the huge number of death threats leveled at Trump – including one family friend of Hillary Clinton who was arrested after he threatened to assassinate Trump at the inauguration – is CNN irresponsible in drawing attention to this issue?
Respondents to the video on YouTube, which was heavily thumbed down, slammed CNN for almost encouraging a violent attack against Trump.
“Totally not suggesting anything here, huh CNN?” commented one.
“So
leftist terrorists know who they need to take out, so that dems can
stay in power? This is irresponsible journalism,” added another.
“I flagged this video as dangerous to the president elect, and that it might foment violence,” wrote another.
The
charges are not without precedent. After Thomas DiMassimo tried to rush
the stage to violently confront Trump during an event in Ohio last
year, CNN gave him a platform to denounce Trump as a “bully”.
