Liberal Only: Did CNN cut off representative-elect Jamal Bowman? Why?

[Brickjectivity]

I'm not a member of this dir, but I thought this would be a fair question since Jamal is supposedly a lefty. Both Jamarl Thomas and Tim Black say that Jama Bowman was cut off during his reply to CNN because he was "Speaking truth to power" about Rahm Emmanuel.

So...is this hype, and what's the buzz on the USA Left? What's wrong with Rahm Emmanuel? Did he cover up a murder and cause a bunch of elementary schools to close? Is he not truly a lefty? Is Joe Biden messing about?

Instead of posting a bunch of videos, why not put the circumstances into your own words?

'Cause I'm inquiring not telling or arguing, but go ahead and keep your cards held to your chest. Nobody is pressuring you to say anything.

Who?

I suppose it must be a member of congress or some other non-entity.

It looks like his video feed cut out, which is quite a common technical difficulty in the world of COVID. It is odd that it happened right as he was tearing into Rahm Immanuel, but, I don’t think it is conclusive CNN deliberately silenced him (and I am not a big fan of CNN, either).

I do not really have a dog in this fight, as I have not formed strong views of Rahm Immanuel one way or the other. I am just commenting on the videos and the question raised in the thread title.

So the camera got sick? If you had a really big dog in this fight, it might have been blamed for bumping into one of the cords or pulling out a wire or biting through a cable or something.

I've seen videos where people's faces seem to digitally melt on live television and they look like they are greenish and scary.
