Host Brian Stelter and his show Reliable Sources are no longer part of the CNN family —Stelter was canned after new CEO Chris Licht put hyper-partisan hosts on notice, ultimately resulting in Stelter’s firing.
But that hasn’t stopped the “job offers” from rolling.
According to a report from The Daily Wire Seth Dillon, CEO of the satirical news site The Babylon Bee, offered the ex-CNN host a job Thursday evening, saying he may be the perfect fit for its brand.
“We’re looking for talent with experience putting out funny fake news,” Dillon continued. “You come highly recommended. Shoot me a DM if you’re interested!”

Yo @brianstelter – my show is hiring.
