Reliable Sources

Reliable Sources is a Sunday morning talk show on the cable/satellite news network CNN that focuses on analysis of the American news media, currently hosted by Brian Stelter. The show is broadcast from 11:00 am to noon ET, from CNN's Time Warner Center studios in New York City. The show is also broadcast around the world by CNN International. It was initially created to cover the media's coverage of the Persian Gulf War, but has since also covered the media's coverage of the Valerie Plame affair, the Iraq War, the outing of Mark Felt as Deep Throat, and many other events and internal media stories. More recently, it has focused on coverage of the presidency of Donald Trump, the fake news epidemic, the special counsel investigation into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential election, and the media's coverage of mass shootings, among several other topics. Stelter also hosts an audio podcast version featuring an hour long one-on-one interview with a journalist.
