I see what you did there, CNN.
Check out this garbage headline.
The House Ethics Committee admonished two male lawmakers — Republican Rep. Mark Meadows and Democratic Rep. Ruben Kihuen — related to investigations of alleged sexual harassment https://t.co/F5cLfiIP5E pic.twitter.com/bOUIVCoNo6

What’s your immediate take? Doesn’t it sound like both Republican Rep. Mark Meadows and Democratic Rep. Ruben Kihuen have been accused of sexual harassment? It totally does.
That’s not the case though. AT ALL. CNN decided to throw Meadows under the bus in order to make it seem like Kihuen wasn’t alone in making “persistent and unwanted advances towards women who were required to interact with him as part of their professional responsibilities.”
The House Ethics Committee isn’t investigating Meadows over accusations of sexual assault. Rather, it’s over “failure to take prompt and decisive action to deal with the alleged sexual harassment in his congressional office.” Meadows wasn’t accused of doing the harassing. Kihuen was.
CNN is such garbage.
Headline makes it sound like Meadows was a harasser. He was not.
Kihuen was a harraser, but CNN needed to soften the blow to the Democrats by including a Republican lawmaker in the story. https://t.co/tHKaWkIykq

CNN at it per usual with lying headlines. For those too lazy to read the article, Meadows didn’t harass anyone. https://t.co/l87fY3NQBm

Was it Congressman Meadows or someone on his staff. There is a big difference. I am talking about your headline

Headline is intentionally misleading. CNN is nothing but a propaganda channel at this point.
