CNN vs Nick Shirley

A CNN reporter pressed YouTuber Nick Shirley in a segment that aired Tuesday night over his viral video in which he visits Minnesota day care facilities run by the Somali community, which he accuses of fraud.

In the video, shared by Elon Musk and Vice President Vance this week, Shirley knocks on doors at various day care centers, pointing out that no children are visible, which he cites as evidence that they are improperly collecting funds.

In a segment on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360,” reporter Whitney Wild confronts Shirley outside one of the centers that featured in his viral video, which has received particular attention for its misspelled sign, “Quality Learing Center.”

“Did you come during normal operating hours when you came to visit?” Wild asks.

“I came at 11 a.m., I believe, and then also came the following day later in the day. The point of it is not whether or not I came at the right time of their operation hours, the point is that — blacked-out doors, they can’t give you any information, you call that number, no one answers,” Shirley responds, wearing a sweatshirt mocking the center’s misspelling.
