MSNBC and CNN are still promoting and inviting Lincoln Project members on their shows following revelations that their co-founder John Weaver attempted to prey on young boys on social media.
So far, 21 men have accused Weaver of grooming them â the youngest being 14-years-old at the time.
Though the networks didnât bother asking any of the Lincoln Project members about Weaver, they still gave them air time and promoted their ridiculous ads.
Newsbusters reports that Lincoln Project spokespeople have been on MSNBC and CNN nine times since the news broke, without being questioned about how long they have known about Weaverâs behavior.

There have been claims that members of the Lincoln Project and reporters close to them have known about what Weaver was doing for years.
âThese guests were uniformly invited to thrash Trump and his Republican enablers. Worse yet, they were described as conservatives (for electing Biden?) On Monday, MSNBCâs Chris Hayes said âI want to bring in conservative attorney George Conway, a staunch Trump critic, co-founder of the Lincoln Project.â On Tuesday, CNNâs Anderson Cooper echoed: âJoining us now, conservative attorney and Lincoln Project co-founder, George Conway,'â Newsbusters reports.
Reporter Yashar Ali tweeted that sources at the networks told him that they will continue to bring members of the Lincoln Project on air.
âGiven all the investigations and potential violations of federal law, I asked MSNBC if they planned on booking anyone associated with Lincoln Project on their shows. Per a source: âWeâll continue to book guests who are associated with the Lincoln Project as news warrants,'â Ali wrote.
CNN International also gave free play to a new Lincoln Project ad on Thursday.
âItâs a pretty powerful ad. Will it have any effect? Will there be a political price at the end of all of this?â the anchor said without mentioning the scandal.
