DHS SHUTS DOWN FAKE NEWS FROM CNN’S JIM SCIUTTO
The Daily Caller ^ | 12/13/2018 | Amber Athey

Posted on 12/13/2018 1:43:35 PM PST by Beave Meister

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) responded Wednesday after CNN accused President Donald Trump of making up statistics about illegal immigration.

Trump claimed during a meeting with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer this week that terrorists are illegally immigrating to the United States.

“People are pouring into our country, including terrorists. We caught 10 terrorists over a short period of time,” Trump said.

CNN anchor Jim Sciutto asserted multiple times that Trump was incorrect, writing, “DHS did not provide evidence of a single terrorist caught at the southern border over the very last short period of time as the president claimed.”

Here's how this works....CNN reports Trump made up a statistic they don't like. Instead of checking up on the stat...they just say Trump made it up...i.e.....lied. When the guy who heads up Homeland Security tweets out not only was Trump right, he tells CNN all you had to do was ask, CNN ignores him. There is nowhere, citizens of this country can turn to get an honest report...on anything. If you watch CNN, MSNBC or FOX and think you're getting fair, unbiased news.....you are a fool.

Brietbart, World Net Daily , Rush, Levin and , of course ,Free Republic which could use a few bucks to finish up the quarter.

CNN and MSNBC are reporting only news that is consistent with the Left's narrative. And if they have to make up a story from time to time...they do that too. I left out Fox because Fox sometimes gets it right.

That's like scientists who conduct research with the entire purpose of proving their theory. You can't start with a theory or position and go from there. If you do, you lack the open mind and objectivity needed to make sure you examine all sides.

That's pseudoscience.

You have to start from a position of seeking the truth whatever it might be with absolutely no bias or inclination or prejudice.

Real journalism, like real science, is research and experimentation TO FIND THE TRUTH...whatever the truth is.

One of the (many, myriad) ways the Mediascum LIES.... POTUS Trump did not say 10 terrorists were caught in “the very last short period of time”.... CNN made up its own #FakeNews standard for what it would consider to be the “fact” of the matter (and then did not even bother to check with DHS anyway).

They are such vile propagandists.

A former co-worker used to say “the first marketing guy to throw out a number doesn’t have to defend it”. Must be a similar rule for urinolists...

Are the media just stupid, purposefully dishonest, or both?

"When the guy who heads up Homeland Security tweets out not only was Trump right, he tells CNN all you had to do was ask, CNN ignores him."

Not only does CNN ignore the truth, their fellow travelers and late night hosts pick up on their lies and report them as if they were factual.

Withing hours that gullible and low information residents of the left are parroting the hogwash.

is CNN still being shown in airport terminals? if it is, a petition - with evidence of some of the FakeNews it broadcasts - should be organised to have it removed.

I've thought about a way to get airport managers to publicly say why they assault the public with fake news. But I doubt it mattes to them since they have captive audiences.

My next thought was to seek out a hacker that can come up with a remote way to change their channel, or jam their reception.

This is the part that annoys me the most. Day after day, we scrape and claw our way to finish line instead of blowing through it.
