CNN’s Stelter Trolls Kimberly Guilfoyle Over Fox News’ Coverage of Russian Election Meddling
CNN senior media correspondent Brian Stelter had some fun at the expense of rival network Fox News today.
While apparently watching The Five this afternoon, Stelter took to Twitter to post a screenshot of co-host Kimberly Guilfoyle looking so very tired during a discussion on Russian election interference. Take a look for yourself:

That moment that Stelter highlighted came during a panel discussion in which the lone liberal co-host, Juan Williams, got done making a point about Russian trolls sowing discord and chaos in America’s political landscape by going after minority voters.
The CNN host has been fairly critical of Fox News’ coverage of the Russia probe. Following last week’s indictment of 13 Russian nationals and three Russian entities for interference in the 2016 election, Stelter delivered a commentary on Reliable Sources in which he declared pro-Trump media’s spin on the story was “dishonest and pathetic.” Meanwhile, many at Fox News and conservative media — especially Sean Hannity — have personally taken aim at Stelter.
UPDATE 8:59 PM ET: The Five’s Greg Gutfeld responded to Stelter’s tweet by claiming that Guilfoyle was just tired of Stelter’s obsession over her.
actually, it's when you're tired of Brian Stelter obsessing over @kimguilfoyle https://t.co/7NQ5UbI8o3
