I knew Avenatti and CNN were low and pathetic. But this is just beyond low for both CNN and Avenatti. CNN admitted, on air yesterday that creep porn lawyer Michael Avenatti has in his possession, a VHS tape of R&B singer R. Kelly engaging in sexual acts with an underage girl. But that’s not all. CNN left wing hack Ana Cabrera admitted that some at the fake news network actually watched the tape, before turning it over to authorities! WTF?!? Both the possession and sharing of child pornography are serious felonies. SO IF creepy porn lawyer Michael Avenatti really did share the R-KElly underage sex tape with CNN, that would be a felony not only on Avenatti, but also CNN and those who watched the tape.
During the segment, which aired on the 2:00 p.m. Eastern hour of CNN Newsroom, a chyron ran at the bottom of the screen which read, “CNN has viewed tape, which attorney says he turned over to authorities.” Unless hack reporter Ana Cabrera mixed up the facts of what she reported, then both creepy porn lawyer and CNN should be in a lot of legal trouble.
CNN even admitted to watching the tape in a Twitter post.

And they admitted on Facebook too:

If Avenatti’s story, relayed secondhand through the cable network, is to be believed, then he certainly did the right thing by turning the tape over to the police. But neither Cabrera nor her panelists bothered to address the two most pressing questions that their reporting raised:
How did Avenatti acquire this tape – which, according to him, contained child pornography – and who had shared it with CNN?
Both the possession and sharing of child pornography are serious felonies. If CNN was able to watch the tape, as their own chyron claimed, then whoever provided them access to it might be in some serious legal trouble. Given the circumstances of the story, the two most likely candidates would be Avenatti himself, or someone at the law enforcement office to whom Avenatti surrendered the tape.
Gee, I wonder if CNN will see a pre-dawn FBI raid like Roger STone got. This story isn’t so much about Avenatti, though it would be interesting to know how he managed to get his grubby hands on the tape. This story is about why is CNN watching child porn with R-Kelly in it?
