It’s pretty obvious Breitbart editor-at-large Ben Shapiro’s command performance on “Piers Morgan Tonight” has gotten under the skin of the left-wing media.

In summation: This is how CNN senior producers treat guests who don’t roll over and play dead:
Look over here! Over here! Don’t look at the humiliating drubbing our blowhard took last night.

This means everything he said last night is wrong, right?

Is this really the kind of shop Jeff Zucker, the newly installed head of CNN, wants to run? Is this the “new” CNN: A bunch of unprofessional crybabies who pose as objective journalists have a bad night and then start hurling rocks after the invited guest has turned his back?
Maybe Zucker thinks CNN’s future is to ape MSNBC.
Good luck with that.
