She said that a wholly owned Transammonia subsidiary in the United States obtained ammonia from Iran. Transammonia's Swiss subsidiary would not enter new contracts with Iranian companies and would wind down its Iranian operations "as soon as possible," as a result of the CNBC's findings.

Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR) has accused her of misrepresenting truth about protesters. Glenn Greenwald, a journalist, responded to a Salon article about bias in Burnett's reporting, which he attributed to her previous work on Wall Street as well as her partner's employment with Citigroup. CNN released a statement saying, "We love Erin and the OutFront team and we acknowledge that a variety of viewpoints will emerge on any given topic."
President Trump's plan under the Insurrection Act to use military powers to depose protesters from Lafayette Square would be "invoking an act not invoked since 1807 to deploy US military troops on American soil," Burnett said. She later published a correction stating that the act had already been invoked for the first time in 1992.
