Leaked Emails: CNN Journalist Refers To ‘GOP Hell,’ Calls Podesta A ‘Star’

Yet another journalist has been exposed by WikiLeaks as a Hillary Clinton cheerleader — this time it’s CNN chief political analyst Gloria Borger.

Borger sent Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta an email on February 12, 2016 titled: “U r a tv star!”

In the email, Borger knocked the Republican Party and praised Hillary.

“I have been in gop hell. Will reach out soon! U good?,” Borger wrote to Podesta. Podesta replied, “Yup.” Borger then said, “[Hillary] had a really good debate tonite.”

Borger appeared on CNN’s post-debate panel February 11, and was not there publicly as a Clinton surrogate.

The Daily Caller has reached out to CNN to see if the network condones Borger’s behavior. The news network has not replied.

CNN announced Monday that it had accepted Donna Brazile’s resignation as a commentator earlier this month after it was revealed she leaked questions from a CNN town hall to the Clinton campaign.
