CNN hosted a nurse from South Dakota on Monday morning who ripped her conservative patients of the novel coronavirus for allegedly being filled with “anger and hatred” and denying the virus’ existence until their last dying breath.

“They come in, they’re horribly ill, they’re gasping for breath, and, yet, they don’t believe they have COVID?” CNN “New Day” host Alisyn Camerota teed-up registered nurse Jodi Doering.

“They don’t want to believe that COVID is real,” said Doering, claiming that this isn’t coming from “one particular patient, it’s just a culmination of so many people.”

“Their last dying words are, ‘This can’t be happening. It’s not real,'” the nurse claimed. “And when they should be spending time — FaceTiming their families, they’re filled with anger and hatred.”

In South Dakota, there have been a total of 644 coronavirus-linked deaths in the state since March.

CNN silent as nurse’s viral tale of patients denying coronavirus from deathbeds falls apart


“Of course, CNN has yet to air an acknowledgment or correction because, when there’s a narrative to push, CNN subscribes to the mantra of if it rings true, it is true,” NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck wrote.

CNN digital producer-turned-Fourth Watch editor Steve Krakauer wrote about the situation his most recent newsletter, first noting that Doering is “generally gross” for choosing to go on TV and share the private words of dying patients.

“Even if the nurse wanted to do this, why would CNN want to give a platform to this awful, inhumane treatment of dying Americans? The story was written up in The Washington Post, USA Today and others. Elizabeth Warren quote-tweeted it,” Krakauer wrote. “But ... was it real?”

Last week, journalist David Zweig penned a column “Are COVID Patients Gasping ‘It Isn’t Real’ As They Die?” for the tech publication Wired, declaring, “An ER nurse’s anecdote of deranged denialism went viral. But when the media caught wind of the story, reporters didn’t do their jobs.”

You don't have to be conservative to be in anger and denial that you're dying of an illness that came on suddenly - anyone who's a nurse knows that people of all kinds are in denial of sudden illness, especially if they've been mostly healthy.

Even if I wasn't in journalism, I would have smelled the BS. CNN has way too much confirmation bias.

I hope Trump buys them.
