CNN on Wednesday reported that the suspicious package that forced an evacuation of its New York headquarters was addressed to former CIA director John Brennan, a frequent Trump critic and MSNBC contributor.
“This suspicious package was in fact addressed to CNN but it was specifically addressed to the former CIA director John Brennan,” CNN’s Wolf Blizter reported on air (which you can see in the video above). “He is a contributor to MSNBC and NBC News, but not CNN.”
MSNBC did not immediately respond to TheWrap’s request for comment.
Brennan, who was the CIA director during the Barack Obama administration, had appeared frequently on CNN shows as a guest.
