CNN: Movie On Sex Trafficking Is a 'Moral Panic' Meant To Appease QAnon

• NewsBusters

CNN Tonight host Abby Phillip decided to do something different for Friday's show by doing a movie review. Specifically, Sound of Freedom starring Jim Caviezel who stars as Tim Ballard, a real-life former DHS agent who works to bust child sex trafficking rings. For Phillip and The Storm is Upon Us author Mike Rothschild, the film focuses on a real issue, but is nevertheless a "moral panic" and a plot to get QAnon conspiracy theorists to feel good about themselves.

After noting the film is battling Indiana Jones "for the top spot at the box office," Phillip also noted "the film and its star are raising eyebrows among critics. Some say that it bends the truth about child exploitation, and it caters to QAnon conspiracy theorists. Its distributor, Angel Studios, denies those accusations. Jim Caviezel, the star of the film, is also known for openly embracing QAnon theories."
