Amber Lyon, a former CNN correspondent, says authoritarian regimes including Bahrain pay the news network to provide favorable coverage and censor its content.

Former CNN correspondent turned Whistleblower, Amber Lyon, exposes how the network is earning money from oppressive regimes in exchange for creating and airing content that casts a favorable light on the regimes. She also revealed CNN International refused to air CNN’s own award-winning documentary, ‘iRevolution’, a documentary exposing the Bahrain regime’s brutal crackdown on pro-democracy protesters.

Instead of watch-dogging governments around the world, CNN is earning money from them, producing what might as well be called ‘Infomercials for Dictators’, sponsored shows and content that cast a positive light on some of the world’s most oppressive regimes.

The news organization is defrauding unsuspecting viewers and its own journalists who often risk their lives to expose those same oppressive regimes.

The ‘Most Trusted Name in News’ must ultimately decide whether it’s in the business of government propaganda or journalism.
