The clip everyone should watch is short, sharp, and embarrassing for the legacy media. On “The Rubin Report,” Dave Rubin shared a direct-message clip of Shermichael Singleton calling out CNN — and, in particular, CNN’s Kaitlan Collins — for a level of selective moralizing that would make a theater critic blush. The exchange exposes how the network and many Democrats claim a moral high ground on issues like MeToo and the fight against extremism, while conveniently looking the other way when their allies are in trouble.
Media Hypocrisy: When Rules Apply Only to Some
Shermichael Singleton’s point was simple: outrage from the left and the press often depends on the team, not the truth. He pointed out that Democrats and many mainstream outlets rush to label anyone connected to the right as extreme or dangerous, yet they turn silent when one of their own faces misconduct claims or political pressure. That silence isn’t an oversight. It’s a policy. The result is that “accountability” becomes a partisan weapon instead of a principle.
Why This Matters for the MeToo Movement
The MeToo movement promised real change: hold powerful people to the same standard as everyone else. But when enforcement varies depending on political allegiance, the movement loses meaning. If the left only condemns conservatives while shielding allies, MeToo becomes a slogan, not justice. Viewers deserve honest coverage and consistent standards — not moral cherry-picking served with morning coffee and a newsroom-approved smirk.
CNN, Kaitlan Collins, and the Cost of Selective Outrage
Kaitlan Collins’ silence in that clip is telling. It’s the exact moment when a pompous performance of virtue cracks, and the audience can see the scaffolding. The press likes to lecture the public about “dangerous rhetoric” while they themselves pick and choose what to investigate. That double standard damages trust across the board. People notice when anchors go quiet and when networks get defensive about their favorites.
At some point voters and viewers have to demand better. Call it consistency, accountability, or plain old fairness — whatever label you prefer, it’s clear the media and the left can’t keep acting like they invented morality. If they want to keep lecturing the rest of America, they need to follow the rules they preach. Until then, clips like this one will keep going viral, and rightly so.
