Multiple television news anchors have met with Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson to try to secure his first television interview, CNN reported on Sunday.
Sources told CNN’s Brian Stelter that news anchors have privately spoken to the officer who fatally shot Michael Brown in off-the-record meetings to lay the groundwork for a possible interview.
Stelter listed the anchors he knows met with Wilson: NBC’s Matt Lauer, ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, CBS’ Scott Pelley, and CNN hosts Anderson Cooper and Don Lemmon. Stelter said that news outlets could not confirm these meetings, and that the list is likely not exhaustive.

“CNN: News Anchors Met With Darren Wilson To Try To Secure Interviews”
DISGUSTING!!
Networks want to give this man a platform ? To do what?
The Prosecutor is already running interference for the accused,with this three month farce of the grand jury inaction IMHO.
And I’ll just bet that they are really, really trying to secure interviews with the parents of the boy that Wilson murdered.
(“crickets”)
He’ll probably end up on FoxNews, like that lying racist Mark Furhman. The wingnut welfare never ends, even among the regular supposedly “real” news networks.
Hey, CNN, how long until you bring back the segregated water fountains?
They have already been on TV numerous times, where have you been? Seriously, you are actually saying no TV news has had them on, when in “reality” they have been on MANY times.
Wow.
Wilson will not go on TV unless he is not indicted. So?
