Which is why we constantly have the death toll on the side, which I have a major problem with, how we\u2019re tallying how many people die every day,\u201d CNN Technical Director&nbsp;Charles Chester told Project Veritas in the video.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Chester even said that the \u201cthe head of the network\u201d (presumably CNN President Jeff Zucker) would sometimes demand the coronavirus tracker be on display again,even after the network would take it down. Chester explained:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>I\u2019ve been in the room many times where my director tells me to take it down, and I take it down, and then we get a phone call, the batphone rings in the back, literally a red phone, like the special red phone rings, and they pick it up and this producer&nbsp;picks it up \u2026&nbsp;every so often they put it on speaker, and it\u2019s like the head of the network being like, \u2018There\u2019s nothing that you\u2019re doing right now that makes me want to stick, put the numbers back up, because that\u2019s the most enticing thing that we had.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Nearly one year after President Biden\u2019s inauguration, the coronavirus has<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2022\/01\/04\/us-counts-over-1-million-new-daily-covid-cases-in-global-record-.html\"> now reached<\/a> over one million new daily cases, and while the tracker has still appeared periodically on CNN, the network has not displayed it at nearly the same rate as it was under President Trump.
