Brian Stelter reported ‘WH press secretary’s father is working for Fox again’ (then it got REAL awkward for CNN, MSM)

Fox News has re-signed former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee as an opinion contributor, and CNN’s media reporter and “Reliable Sources” host connected the dots:

Tom Elliott@tomselliott

Flashback: CNN's @brianstelter touts Michael Avenatti as a "serious" contender for 2020.

"And looking ahead to 2020, one reason I’m taking you seriously as a contender is because of your presence on cable news.”
