As you know, yesterday CNN announced that “Reliable Sources” is being canceled and the show’s host Brian Stelter will be leaving the cable net:
The company announced Thursday that it is ending the media analysis show that has aired in various iterations for 30 years. Its last episode will be this Sunday.

Watch:
SUPERCUT!

“Reliable Sources” is among the most deceptively titled things in recent memory, right up there with the “Inflation Reduction Act” and “Affordable Care Act.”
Bye @brianstelter, Greg Gutfeld is going to miss you 😂 https://t.co/I9KEjjRXur

Maybe Fox News could invite Stelter on “The Five” — that could be fun.
