(Oliver Contreras\/The Washington Post via AP, Pool)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN NEWSROOM<br \/>\nUPDATED 8:54 AM PT \u2013 Tuesday, June 21 2022<\/h5>\n<p>Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) recently criticized mainstream media for trying to stir up partisan hatred against Republicans. During a Monday interview, the Louisiana lawmaker specifically decried the actions of staffers working for \u201cThe Late Show with Stephen Colbert.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Last week, a group of seven CBS employees were arrested for walking the halls of the US Capitol without badges. They were reportedly trying to catch Republican lawmakers off guard, while attempting to interview them through the \u201cdog puppet\u201d character called \u201cTriumph the Insult Comic Dog.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kennedy said the American people know this was an attempt to make Republicans look bad. He added, Americans don\u2019t take mainstream media seriously.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cI\u2019ve said it in another context, that\u2019s why the American people \u2014 they are not fooled,\u201d stated the Republican. \u201cThey trust the media now like they trust gas station sushi. And the media, everybody knows that \u2014 not everybody, but many members of the media \u2014 have no self-awareness. They think they are fooling the American people.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Sen. Kennedy also said narratives curated by mainstream media are fueling hysterical outcries against conservatives. These include protests outside the homes of Supreme Court justices violent unrest and cancel culture.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"css-901oao css-16my406 r-poiln3 r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0\">Colbert defended his staff during an episode of the show following their<\/span><span class=\"css-901oao css-16my406 r-poiln3 r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0\"> arrest by Capitol Police. He noted authorities are more cautious now while alluding the reasoning to be on part of the January 6 protests. Nonetheless, the seven staffers were charged with unlawful entry after disturbance call.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>According to a Capitol Police statement, \u201cThis is an active criminal investigation and may result in additional criminal charges after consultation with the U.S. Attorney.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/poll-bidens-job-approval-hits-new-low-at-32\/\">Poll: Biden\u2019s Job Approval Hits New Low At 32%<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sen.
