It seems pretty clear from the video that the guy's video call dropped, it wasn't cut by CNN. CNN is reporting on these criticisms of Emanuel on their website: https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/24/politics/rahm-emanuel-transpo...

So if they are trying to secretly cover them up (as you seem to imply), they are doing a bad job.

I wouldn't say it's 'clear' but you're right that it's at least ambiguous.

For a less ambiguous case, look at how CNN and MSNBC treated the Bernie campaign/movement. Calling them "MSM" doesn't mean that one is a reactionary, it just means that one is outside of their set of approved viewpoints in any direction.
