Former CNN host Brian Stelter claimed that teachers showed students segments from his show during the last episode of “Reliable Sources” Sunday.
“It’s a part of journalism-school curriculum,” Stelter said. “Teachers across the country, and in other countries outside the U.S., teachers use segments from this show all the time in classrooms, lessons, guiding and teaching the next generation.”

CNN announced the cancellation of “Reliable Sources” and Stelter’s departure from the network Thursday. Stelter hosted the show for nine years, during which he gained a reputation as a partisan, according to a June report by Axios, which reportedly had executives considering whether he should be dropped.
“The thing about TV is it’s fleeting,” Stelter said, “It evaporating up into the air, and a lot of it is not meant to be remembered. But this program transcended that.”
“It was a great idea,” Stelter said. “It is a great idea.”

“Is it any wonder that America’s students demonstrate low civic literacy when this kind of partisan hackery is being taught to students in lieu of our founding documents?” Nicole Neily, president and founder of Parents Defending Education, asked the Daily Caller News Foundation.
