In a profile of White House Correspondents Dinner host Larry Wilmore, CNN’s At This Hour co-host John Berman openly admitted (unlike CBS This Morning) on Thursday to Wilmore’s agreement that The Nightly Show is “admittedly liberal” and “trends left” toward “more pro-Democratic policies and politicians.”

Berman offered nothing but fawning praise for Wilmore in seeing no issue with the show being overwhelmingly liberal, its host serving as a huge Obama supporter, and hailed by The New York Times as “less preoccupied with humor than anyone else who’s ever occupied a mock news chair.”
