The breathless headline at Buzzfeed this morning reads CNN Is Imposing Strict New Rules On Its Russia Coverage. Wow. Strict new rules, huh? What must those be? Well, if you read the actual story itself which we know that most of Buzzfeeds short attention-span browsers wont, you find that these strict new rules involve CNNs fake journalists having to gasp! check with a couple of editors before rushing their unsourced fake stories to the CNN fakenews website. What this tell us, if you understand whats happening here, is that, prior to the issuance of this memo, CNNs fake journalists could just toss stuff up there without having to check with an editor. Given that the memo was issued after CNN was revealed yet again has having posted an utterly false hatchet job on a former Trump campaign operative, it should come as no surprise that CNN has to this point been exercising literally no journalistic process at all.
But now they are, right? Well, no. The thing to understand about this much-ballyhooed memo is that it targets only CNNs fake journalists who post website stories. It does not impact CNNs even faker reporters, anchors and talking heads to infest the fake news networks television coverage. Those people are still free to toss out any slander, libel or fairy tale they want to toss while on the air. So, despite Buzzfeeds blaring headline, it turns out these strict new rules are just CNNs way of slathering a bunch more lipstick on its #fakenews pig.

Your are up early and taking aim.
Thanks.
Ditto!
The word "system" implies you have done something the same way at least twice. After three times, it's a "process."
There is no madness to the method if there is no method. I see just madness.
I wish CNN would just go away.
