If you listen to CNN, you might come away with the conclusion that the riot that took place at UC Berkeley on Wednesday night was just one big right-wing conspiracy.

Berkeley professor and former Clinton cabinet member Robert Reich appeared on CNN Thursday and peddled what he admitted were “rumors” involving the motive and alliance of the agitators who caused $100,000 in damage to the campus in an effort to silence Milo Yiannopoulos.

Host Don Lemon asked Reich if the riots “play right into the hands of the white supremacists and someone like Milo Yiannopoulos,” and Reich, of course, agreed.

“I was there for part of last night,” Reich said. “I know what I saw and those people were not Berkeley students.

“Those were outsiders, agitators. I’ve never seen them before. There’s rumors they were actually right-wingers,” he said.

“They were part of a group that were organized and ready to create the kind of tumult and danger you saw that forced the police to cancel the event.”

Reich went on to defend the free speech record of the school.

“Berkeley opened its biggest auditorium to this right-wing Breitbart News character, this hateful, odious person.”

He continued, “These outsiders who caused the police to have to come in and finally cancel it.”

CNN Floats Theory That Berkeley Rioters Were RIGHT WINGERS

CNN is clearly on a mission to completely destroy what’s left of its reputation. During Don Lemon’s show last night, liberal guest Robert Reich suggested that the rioters at Berkeley this week were actually right wingers who were just trying to make the left look bad.

CNN’S LEMON AND ROBERT REICH: CONSERVATIVES MASTERMINDED THE BERKELEY RIOTS

LEMON: “I’ve been wanting to have this conversation because this has been a big issue about free speech on campus and conservative voices being heard. Mr. Reich, my first question to you is, there’s a violence that we saw at Berkeley. We had it live here on CNN last night. It ultimately plays right into the hands of the right-wing white supremacist, someone like Milo Yiannopoulos.”

REICH: “It absolutely does, Don. And I want to be very, very clear. I was there for part of last night and I know what I saw. Those people were not Berkeley students. Those people were outsiders, agitators. I’ve never seen them before. There’s rumors that they actually were right-wingers. They were a part of a group that were organized and ready to create the kind of tumult and danger you saw that forced the police to cancel the event. So Donald Trump, when he says Berkeley doesn’t respect free speech rights, that’s a complete distortion of the truth. I mean, Berkeley opened its biggest auditorium to this right-wing Breitbart News character, this hateful odious person. They said, ‘Free speech is the most important thing we stand for,’ and it was these outsiders who caused the police to finally come in and have to cancel it.”

Well, that much is probably true. And probably paid to riot, too. reich just got the POV and possible employer(s) wrong. Predictably, given Reich and Lemon.

the propaganda will only get worse. Americans can no longer trust the news to deliver truth.
