WATCH: CNN Hosts Visibly Agitated After Learning Of Trump’s Ceasefire On Air

CNN anchor Erin Burnett appeared to be visibly distraught when she was informed live on the air that Israel and Iran, with the backing of President Donald Trump, had agreed to a ceasefire.

Burnett was reporting on the conflict live from the United Arab Emirates when she first received the news. In a rather revealing reaction, the CNN host immediately scrambled to deny reports that an agreement had been reached.

This was immediately refuted by political and global affairs analyst Barack Ravid, who appeared on the program to deliver the breaking news. Ravid shared a Truth Social post released by President Trump Monday afternoon in which he announced that both sides had agreed to a ceasefire that was to be implemented over the next 24 hours.

“In the hours since then, there were talks between the US and Israel and Qatar and Iran to tie the final knots and agree on the final conditions of this ceasefire,” he said.

This ceasefire has been mediated and, according to President Trump, also achieved through mediation of Qatar and the United States,’ Ravid told Burnett, who did not look pleased. “Iranian officials sent the message to the White House through the Qataris saying “we’re done. This is our response, we’re not going to do anything further. The White House sent the message back through the Qataris: ‘We are not, if you are done, we are not going to retaliate and we want to talk. We want now to get a deal.’ In the hours since then, there were talks between the US and Israel and Qatar and Iran to tie the final knots and agree on the final conditions of this ceasefire,” he added.

A stone-faced Burnett did not appear to take the news well, as she appeared to dismiss the “very significant developments” shared by Ravid before pivoting to another CNN correspondent, Fred Pleitgin, who reported on a recent set of explosions in Tehran.

President Donald Trump reacted harshly to coverage of the strikes from CNN, MSNBC and other media outlets in a fiery press conference Tuesday morning.

“And you know the fake news, CNN in particular, they’re trying to say, ‘Well, I agree that it was destroyed but maybe not that destroyed.’ You know what they’re doing? They’re really hurting great pilots that put their lives on the line,’ Trump said.

“CNN is scum and so is MSDNC … and frankly the networks aren’t much better,” the president added.
