Burr continued: “She always puts on CNN. And do you know what those f*** morons are doing? Do you know what those f*** morons are doing?! They’re f*** talking about Trump.

The podcaster claimed that the newscasters only talk about Donald Trump because President Biden is “a f*** bore.”

Adding: “It’s like, do you think these people give a f*** who’s president? They want Darth Vader to come back. They want him to come back.

“Because they had nothing to talk about, because it’s show business, and Joe Biden is a f*** bore.”  

“They can’t b*** about [Biden] because he’s wearing a blue tie.

“So now what do they do? They’re going out there, they’re doing what they did the first time to get this guy [Trump] elected, by giving him all this free coverage, while they act like they allegedly don’t like him.

He concluded: “I don’t buy it. I don’t buy it. They are a corporate news channel.”
