Taibbi wrote,"CNN Newsroom anchor Jim Acosta, famed for being the WWE version of a media tough guy during the Trump years, curled up like a kitten last weekend when interviewing Phil Mudd, onetime head of the FBI’s National Security Branch.

Matt Taibbi penned a scathing Substack post headlined, "Sweeps Week on FBI TV!" describing how CNN seems to be spoonfeeding the public propaganda for U.S. intelligence agencies.
