JFKs Grandson Jack Schlossberg Slams CNN Anchors Over Assassination Files Coverage in Expletive-Laden Outburst: So Frustratingly Dumb

Jack Schlossberg, the grandson of President John F. Kennedy, expressed his frustration with CNN’s coverage of newly released documents related to his grandfather’s assassination. The Trump administration made these documents public, totaling around 80,000 files, as part of a push for government transparency.

In a video shared on social media platform X, Schlossberg, visibly upset, criticized the network for focusing on the JFK files instead of more pressing news. He questioned why such coverage was happening, stating, "You’re better than this. This is so f–king stupid. There’s so much actual news going on. Why are you covering this?"

Schlossberg, who is the son of former U.S. Ambassador Caroline Kennedy, did not hold back in his remarks. He specifically called out CNN anchors Harry Enten and Erin Burnett, both of whom he praised for their intelligence, yet he wondered why they were reporting on the JFK files.

Following his initial outburst, Schlossberg continued to share his thoughts online, denying claims made in the documents about his personal life. He emphatically stated, “WHAT THE JFK FILES SAY ABOUT ME IS NOT TRUE,” and added, “IM STRAIGHT.”

His anger extended beyond the media. He clarified that the Trump administration did not inform the Kennedy family about the document release beforehand, calling it a "total surprise." He also pointed fingers at his cousin, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., suggesting that he was aware of the release.

Schlossberg’s frustration was not limited to the media and family. He took aim at Republican Senator Mike Lee, accusing him of undermining JFK’s legacy. He reminded Lee that his actions were contrary to honoring his grandfather’s memory.

This isn’t the first time Schlossberg has reacted strongly to the release of JFK-related documents. He previously criticized the Trump administration for using his grandfather’s legacy for political purposes, stating that there was nothing heroic about it.

The release of these documents has reignited discussions about JFK’s assassination, a topic that remains sensitive for many, especially those in the Kennedy family.
