1) They aren't finished. That was part 1.
2) It moves us from "conspiracy theory" to "conspiracy fact" that Jeff Zucker has a vendetta against Trump, to the point of explicitly ordering the news desks to hammer home impeachment above all other topics.
3) The guy wearing the camera has HUNDREDS of hours of footage.
4) It confirms that even some of the CNN staffers are sick of #MuhTrump obsession by Zucker.
5) The expose isn't over. They're likely building to something much bigger, and O'Keefe is indicating that Brian Stelter is one of those caught on camera saying shite.
6) The overarching point contrasting Hannity with Don Lemon both as opinion presenters is easy to get lost in the shuffle. Hannity absolutely is an op/ed host, but brings in legit journos like Sara Carter and John Solomon to back it up, while Lemon tries to wear the impartial newsman costume while spewing opinion content all night can't be overstated.

To me it was the opposite of what I expected. The conversations were that they honestly believe the lies that they put out. Nothing about framing or lying that I saw. Vendetta, absolutely... duh. But was hoping for something illegal or out right admitting fabrication.
Anyone shocked by what I saw, is a really naïve individual.

This explains why you think it was nothing. For people who think CNN is a legitimate news source, this is a big deal.

He does hate the guy, but mainly Zucker just is giving his thoughts on what he thinks the story is. And he wants to stay focused on that bc he thinks it’s what’s best for the country (to tell the rest of us we’re racists), and also perversely that this bullshite causes ratings.
It’s a total nothingburger.
If he was exposed for coordinating with the Deep State in a coup, yes that would be something. But he’s not. He’s just making really stupid decisions and reading what could be his audience totally wrong.
Nobody with a functioning brain thinks that Zucker, Lemon, Fredo, Tapper, or Anderson Cooper - or any of those other snobs like Trump. They all think Trump voters made the wrong decision, and the more they try to convince trump supporters about how awful they are, the more they drive people away.
All in all - nothing in that burger. That poor “whistleblower” just tanked his career for no reason.

A very miniscule number of these people will ever see any of this. And if they're dumb enough to believe CNN is a real news source, then they're also dumb enough to believe CNNs attacks on O'Keefe's legitimacy.

Point is, not everyone does know what has been confirmed. Before the tape, half of the people in this country would have called you a liar if you told them what is on the tape. Those of us who do stay up to date on the news already knew what the tape shows.

The 50% you reference will not watch the video. If they do they will say the conversations are taken / edited out of context which frankly they might be.

Its evidence for Slander and Libel if they are caught "reporting" any more Fake News.
They literally have them talking about deliberately trying to destroy The President.
But you know all that you silly goose.

You’re like...I expected this to be beef with lettuce and tomato and sure enough it was.
The special carton that kept the beef hot and the lettuce and tomato cool was neat though.

Then that's on them if they don't want to admit to the truth. You know, kinda like telling you Rubio didn't have a snowball's chance in hell in getting the nomination and you not believing us.

It's free media. What did you expect when you don't pay for it? Advertisers pay for that shite and there for, we get shite.

This is never the case with O'Keefe's videos.

Until he releases the videos completely unedited and in its original form I can’t make that assessment on this particular set of videos.
