CNN’s Brian Stelter Ignores ‘Cuties’ Controversy in Interview with Netflix CEO Reed Hastings

 

CNN the place where truth comes to get slaughtered! Breitbart always has interesting pictures

 

For the second time in less than a week, CNN has ignored the firestorm over the movie Cuties while interviewing Netflix co-CEO Reed Hastings.

 

Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter failed to bring up Cuties during his Sunday chat with Hastings, which aired just three days after CNN Newsroom host Poppy Harlow spoke to Hastings and also neglected to mention the controversy over the kiddie twerking movie.

 

On Sunday, Stelter aired an interview with Hastings about his new book, No Rules Rules: Netflix and the Culture of Reinvention. The conversation touched on the coronavirus pandemic and how Netflix is equipped to deal with the recent shutdown in film and TV production. “We’re very fortunate that we produce all over the world,” Hastings said.

 

The interview also addressed growing streaming competition. “HBO and Disney will be around,” Hastings said. “We’ll see what happens with the others.”

 

But Stelter didn’t ask a single question about Cuties, which has generated a firestorm of criticism for its sexually charged portrayal of underage girls. The movie has drawn harsh condemnation from members of Congress, who are demanding that Netflix explain why it chose to distribute the French movie.

 

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) called the movie “child porn” and accused Netflix of being “complicit” in encouraging pedophiles and helping to fuel the child sex trafficking trade.

 

When viewers took to Twitter to demand why he failed to mention the controversy, Stelter claimed that it was because the interview with Hastings was taped “several days ago.” He didn’t specify how many days.

 

But the Cuties controversy is more than just “several days” old. The firestorm originated last month when Netflix released the trailer and poster for the movie, both of which spotlighted a sequence in the movie in which underage girls perform a sexually charged dance number complete with pelvic gyrations and simulated masturbation.

 

While Netflix eventually apologized for the marketing campaign, the streamer is standing firmly behind its decision to release the movie.

 

“Cuties is a social commentary against the sexualization of young children,” a Netflix spokesperson said. “It’s an award-winning film and a powerful story about the pressure young girls face on social media and from society more generally growing up — and we’d encourage anyone who cares about these important issues to watch the movie.”

 

Netflix has a production deal with Barack and Michelle Obama. Former Obama national security advisor Susan Rice sits on the company’s board of directors. The Obamas and Rice have so far remained silent about the Cuties controversy.

Feds: Nearly 400K American Victims of Identity Theft Never Notified by IRS

 

I had my identity stolen but the IRS won’t work with law enforcement If they steal less than $25,000; they also won’t release the fraudulent tax returns. So knowing how disorganized they are, I went to their online request site to get copies of my tax returns, they sent me the fraudulent ones, I took them to a detective to find out who it was, was tracked to SAfrica, through many states

 

Nearly 400,000 Americans are unknowingly the victims of identity theft, in cases where perpetrators steal their identity to gain employment, because the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has yet to notify them, a federal audit reveals.

 

A report released by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration details 133,864 cases where American children had their identities stolen by perpetrators trying to gain employment, but the parents of those children were never notified by the IRS.

 

Another nearly 61,000 Americans were not notified last year by the IRS due to “programming errors” after having their identities stolen. As Breitbart News has reported, illegal aliens often steal IDs to fraudulently obtain employment.

 

Auditors write that because the IRS only notifies repeat identity theft victims once every three years, victims fail to realize that a perpetrator is continuing to use their identity.

 

The report states:

 

The IRS did not issue its Employment-Related Identity Theft notice to the parents or legal guardians of 133,864 dependents that the IRS identified as employment identity theft victims in Processing Year 2019. In addition, systemic programming errors prevented the IRS from issuing the notice to 60,872 victims that the IRS identified. [Emphasis added]

 

Finally, the IRS’s policy to notify repeat victims of employment identity theft every three years may result in many victims not being notified that identity thieves continued to use the victims’ Taxpayer Identification Numbers nearly every year to work. The 75,451 victims that the IRS first notified in Processing Year 2017 were not sent a subsequent notice despite identity thieves using the victims’ Taxpayer Identification Numbers again to gain employment in Processing Years 2018, 2019, or both years. [Emphasis added]

 

Auditors said they discovered more than 883,000 cases of employment identity theft after reviewing more than a million tax returns from last year. Of those cases, nearly 393,000 victims were not notified by the IRS, including the more than 133,000 children whose parents remain unaware of their child’s stolen identity.

 

“The IRS’s unwillingness to take any action in an effort to notify parents or legal guardians is problematic because of the impact and damage that theft of a child’s identity can have on future credit and employment history,” the report states, adding:

 

The IRS is in a unique position to identify this type of child identity theft and provide individuals with the information they need to minimize the impact. However, without notification, parents and legal guardians cannot take the same proactive steps the IRS suggests when an adult’s TIN is identified as being used to fraudulently obtain employment.

 

The most recent case of employment identity theft was revealed after a major Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid of multiple food processing plants in Mississippi. Federal officials have confirmed that at least 400 Americans had their identities stolen by illegal aliens, including in some cases where illegal aliens worked for a decade under fraudulent identities.

 

Today, at least eight million illegal aliens hold American jobs in the U.S. economy that would have otherwise gone to Americans. In most cases, these illegal aliens obtain fraudulent work authorization documents or steal American citizens’ identities in order to take jobs.

 

A 2018 investigation by the Immigration and Reform Law Institute (IRLI) discovered that there have been potentially 39 million cases between 2012 to 2016 wherein American citizens have had their identities stolen by illegal aliens.

 

The discovery was made after IRLI investigators reviewed W-2 tax forms where names on the financial records did not match their corresponding Social Security records.

Ohio Man Charged with Rape of 12-Year-Old Who Became Pregnant

 

Tevin Henderson has been indicted on five counts of rape and will face up to 55 years in prison, according to a statement released Monday.

 

Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters detailed charges against 22-year-old Tevin Henderson, who faces decades in prison and a permanent spot on the sex offender registry for the repeated rape of a 12-year-old “family acquaintance” at a residence in Winton Terrace.

 

“There are no words to describe this kind of horrible crime against a child. We have yet to coin a word in the English language adequate to describe someone who sexually abuses a child and causes a 12-year-old to give birth,” Deters said, before allowing himself a moment of candor:

 

On a personal note, I’d like to say the following. These types of cases are much too prevalent in our area and nationwide. It makes me sick to my stomach. To prey upon a young girl sexually, impregnate her, and think nothing of it is disgusting and should be totally unacceptable to everyone who hears of these acts. We will work diligently to remove him from the streets of Hamilton County for as long as possible.

 

Henderson is being held at the Hamilton County Justice Center, with bail set at $250,000. His hearing is scheduled for September 25. Henderson’s lawyer, James Costin, declined to comment on the indictment.

China Struggling to Convince Citizens to Take Chinese-Made Flu Shots

 

Gee I wonder why, because they are such a trustworthy source for vaccines

 

The Communist Party of China is struggling to convince citizens to receive influenza vaccinations to protect them in the upcoming flu season after years of corruption scandals involving faulty, watered-down, or otherwise useless vaccines, the South China Morning Post noted on Monday.

 

About 30 million flu shots are distributed in China each year. This year, authorities have increased production to ensure that “up to 50 million doses [are] available,” Zhang Hui, deputy director of China’s National Institutes for Food and Drug Control, said late last month. Even with the increase, “the coverage rate would rise only slightly to 3.57 percent,” Zhang cautioned.

 

“[W]hile China has the capacity to increase flu vaccine supply, public demand has remained low because of a lack of trust, a lack of public awareness, poor access, as well as cost,” Huang Yanzhong, a senior fellow for global health at the Council on Foreign Relations, told the South China Morning Post (SCMP). To get a flu shot in China, “most people have to go to a hospital and pay around 100 yuan ($14.60),” according to the report.

 

Xu Liang, a 68-year-old from the city of Wuxi, located near Shanghai in the eastern province of Jiangsu, told the SCMP that he has not decided whether or not to get a flu shot this fall.

 

“I’ve heard friends discussing it, saying this year is special because of the coronavirus and we are among the high-risk group. But 100 yuan is too much for retirees like me. It’s five days of my family’s food budget,” Xu, who has never gotten a flu shot before, explained.

 

Despite having pre-existing health conditions such as high blood pressure and other illnesses that make him more vulnerable to the coronavirus, Xu said he still hesitates to receive a Chinese-made vaccine.

 

“I don’t know how effective it is. And I doubt its quality. I remember there were scary reports of substandard vaccines years ago,” he added.

 

Xu referred to the Chinese vaccine maker Changchun Changsheng Bio-technology, which sold over “250,000 DPT vaccines in Shandong province before tests in November 2017 revealed that some were not effective,” according to the SCMP. A provincial regulator fined Changchun Changsheng 3.4 million yuan ($502,200) for knowingly selling the ineffective DPT vaccines, according to the report. DPT vaccines immunize people against diphtheria, whooping cough, and tetanus. In China, DPT vaccines are administered to babies as young as three months old.

 

Changchun Changsheng was also fined “a record $1.3 billion in 2018 for fabricating records for a rabies vaccine for humans,” Agence France-Presse (AFP) reported.

 

In August 2018, Chinese leader Xi Jinping personally presided over a Communist Party hearing to hold at least 40 government officials, including seven at the provincial level, accountable for the scandal. The committee fired about 40 other officials for their role in the corruption. At the meeting, Xi “stressed that those involved in the case should be held accountable and punished severely according to the law.” He also “instructed all-out efforts to be made to ensure the bottom line of safety and [to] safeguard the public interest and social stability,” state-run news agency Xinhua reported at the time.

 

The Changchun Changsheng corruption scandal caused a rare spate of public protests in China, where the Communist Party is normally quick to extinguish anti-government sentiment.

 

In July 2018, dozens of angry citizens gathered outside Beijing’s National Health Commission and National State Drug Administration buildings. They demanded stricter punishments for the pharmaceutical executives and CCP officials who allowed the ineffective vaccines to be sold to the public. Some of the demonstrators pushed for greater government transparency. Despite official CCP statements claiming that the vaccines caused no serious health consequences, some parents insisted that their children had been made ill by the faulty injections. According to the AFP report, Changchun Changsheng’s defective DPT vaccine “caused paralysis in a few cases.”
