CNN has reviewed a 35-page compilation of the memos, from which the two-page synopsis was drawn. The memos have since been published by Buzzfeed. The memos originated as opposition research, first commissioned by anti-Trump Republicans, and later by Democrats. At this point, CNN is not reporting on details of the memos, as it has not independently corroborated the specific allegations.

They also said it was in the presentation to Trump when even MSNBC reported that this was WRONG WRONG WRONG, it was never communicated to him.

CNN Fake News

Watching it too because I like KAC. Anderson Cooper is dancing on the head of a pin with his denial of linking to BuzzFeed. They absolutely referred to the 35 page underlying documentation in their “reporting”. Actually, they referred to it as 36 pages IIRC. They had to know the underlying documents were specious.

CNN thinks that “reporting” the 2 page synopsis is news worthy when in fact it has been subsequently reported as an example of disinformation (NBC). Chris Matthews was quite clear on the disinformation as opposed to intelligence.

Can’t believe I watched Hardball but I did.

They are trying to have it both ways: http://dailycaller.com/2017/01/11/nbc-intel-official-trump-allegations-are-unvetted-disinformation-video/#ixzz4VTSM8eUM

See, they had it in the briefing BUT they never showed it to him, you see, that was an addendum kept in reserve, just in case.

They specifically claimed that this information was in Trump’s presentation that was shared with him.

FAKE

The left is actually accustomed to having it both ways since the media went along with their misinformation (lies). There will be a new sheriff in town on Jan. 20.
