Dana Bash - News Anchor with Corrupt News Network (CNN)
Not since the legendary sit-downs between Barbara Walters and every A-list celeb have we seen such a masterclass in the art of softball questioning as Dana Bash’s recent, now infamous, interview with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. But let’s not stop there, let's create an experiment: Imagine, if you will, that this isn’t 2024, but rather 1944, and Dana Bash is about to make history with an exclusive interview with none other than Adolf Hitler. Yes, that Adolf Hitler. What could possibly go wrong?
Scene 1: The Great Misunderstanding
Dana Bash: "Sieg Heils Mein Führer! Rumors have been circulating about some troubling activities involving the Jewish population. Could you clarify what’s going on?"
Adolf Hitler: (with a charming smile): "Ah, Dana, it’s all a huge misunderstanding! You see, we’re simply relocating them to new homes in the East, providing them with fresh air, job opportunities, and a chance to connect with nature. It’s practically a vacation!"
Dana Bash: (nodding sympathetically): "Oh, how thoughtful! Relocating must be such a logistical nightmare. How do you manage it?"
Adolf Hitler: "German efficiency, Dana. We’ve got it down to a science!"
Dana Bash: Impressive! Let’s move on, shall we?"
Scene 2: The Humanitarian Angle
Dana Bash: "There’s been some concern about the treatment of political prisoners. What’s your response to that?"
Adolf Hitler: (with a slight chuckle): "Dana, it’s all about rehabilitation! We’re simply helping these individuals see the error of their ways. It’s a big government-sponsored therapy session, if you will. We’re pioneers in psychological health!"
Dana Bash: "Wow, I wish more leaders would take such an active role in mental health. You’re really ahead of your time!"
Scene 3: The Science Enthusiast
Dana Bash: "Some people have accused your government of conducting unethical experiments on humans. How do you respond to that?"
Adolf Hitler: (laughing): "Dana, we’re just curious! It’s all in the name of science. We’re learning so much about the human body—knowledge that will benefit humanity for generations. You could say we’re the original pioneers of modern medicine."
Dana Bash: "Fascinating! I’m sure history will remember you as a great contributor to medical science."
Scene 4: The Peacemaker
Dana Bash:: "What do you say to those who claim you’re responsible for starting a global conflict?"
Adolf Hitler: "Dana, you must understand, I’m a man of peace. The invasions were simply misunderstood diplomatic overtures. Poland? A friendly visit gone awry. France? Just dropping in for tea!"
Dana Bash: "If only more world leaders were so dedicated to peace. It’s truly inspiring."
Scene 5: The Economic Visionary
Dana Bash: "There’s been criticism about the economic hardships faced by Germany under your rule. Any comments?"
Adolf Hitler: "Hardships? Nonsense! We’ve created jobs, unified the country, and even started new industries. Sure, there’s been some rationing, but that’s just a sign of good economic stewardship. We’re teaching the nation the virtues of frugality!"
Dana Bash: "I see, a wise lesson for us all. We could all learn a thing or two from your leadership."

And there you have it, folks: the interview that could have been, had Dana Bash’s time machine gone back in time.. Now, before anyone accuses Elephant's Den of downplaying historical atrocities, let’s be clear: this is satire, and the parallels are as absurd as they are intentional.
Disclosure: This article is a parody and is intended to expose the dangers of media bias and the consequences of unchecked propaganda. We are in no way making light of the tragedies of history but rather using satire as a tool to critique modern media practices that, when unchecked, can serve to normalize the unspeakable. Just as what happened with Dana's interview with Kamala Harris. And no, Dana Bash doesn’t actually have a time machine… that we know of.
