CNNâs Brian stelter has been offered a position with The Babylon Bee.
On Thursday, Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon jokingly tweeted, âHey , would you be interested in working for the Bee? Weâre looking for talent with experience putting out funny fake news.â
He added, âYou come highly recommended. Shoot me a DM if youâre interested!â
CNN announced that the network would be canceling Stelterâs show âReliable Sources,â as IJR reported.
A CNN spokesperson said in a statement, âCNN will end its âReliable Sourcesâ program on Sunday, August 21st. As a result Brian stelter will leave the company. We appreciate his contributions to the network and wish him well as he embarks on new endeavors.â
Stelter issued a statement of his own, saying, âIt was a rare privilege to lead a weekly show focused on the press at a time when it has never been more consequential.â
Dillon is not the only one to invite Stelter to apply for a job.
Fox Newsâs Greg Gutfeld tweeted, âYo â my show is hiring.â
NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck spoke to Fox News about how he feels Stelter did more harm than good.
âStelter departs CNN having done damage to both the networkâs reputation and the wider mediaâs reputation like few others could do,â Houck said.
He added, âPositing himself as a media reporter looking to help explain the journalism profession to the public and show how stories are made and shaped, Stelter actually exposed the national press for the knavish liberal partisans that theyâve become by inadvertently displaying their arrogance and childish refusal to accept even mild outside criticism.â
Houck suggested that Stelterâs ârancorous apologies, dismissals, and omissions of major media stories and failures only deepened his reputation as the liberal mediaâs janitor and a hate object on the right.â
He continued, âWith this move and Jeffrey Toobinâs departure last week, these last seven days could mark the beginning of a turning point for CNN under Chris Licht.â
The outlet noted Licht was announced as the new head of CNN in February.
