Howard Stern slaps CNN on-air for blatantly lying, contacts Donald Trump to clear up false report
BPR ^ | 4 Oct 2016

Howard Stern is more than a little miffed with CNN for reporting that he confirmed Donald Trump was in favor of the Iraq War when the GOP nominee said otherwise.

“So, then there was a big screaming headline on CNN — ‘Howard Stern Now Confirms.’ There’s a picture of me and Trump […] I don’t know how CNN came up with that headline,” Stern said.

The shock jock went at CNN on Monday’s episode of “The Howard Stern Show,” insisting he did not confirm that Trump lied about where he stood on the war in Iraq.

“I said nothing new,” Stern said. “And so I emailed Trump and I wanted to explain to him that, uh, that is not what I said.”

He went on to note that Trump’s detractors are now pulling a lot of quotes from past appearances on his show, but said Trump always appeared in the “spirit” of fun.

“I will say that Donald Trump was one of the best guests we ever had because he would kind of have this stream of consciousness and was not politically correct, and so he always made for a fun guest,” Stern said. “And a lot of his stuff was in the spirit of that.”

It used to be that the Ministry of Propaganda Media was just terribly biased.

But they have finally sunk to the point where they just make s*** up.

The MSM (including Foxnews!) IS the enemy. There is no attempt to even conceal their bias.

“Howard Stern is definitely of higher moral fiber than anything or anyone that can found on Lyin’ CNN.”

That speaks very bad of CNN.

If it weren’t for the captive audiences in waiting rooms and airports CNN wouldn’t have any viewers.

It’s official. Fartman has more integrity than CNN.

Howard Stern’s comments on Trump’s comments about the Iraq war: “I will say that Donald Trump was one of the best guests we ever had because he would kind of have this stream of consciousness and was not politically correct, and so he always made for a fun guest. And a lot of his stuff was in the spirit of that. But he did say it. So, you know, that’s what they’re using. But I think you would have to cut him some slack and say he’s doing it on the ‘Howard Stern Show’ in a fun sort of bit.”

In true journalistic fashion, Cooper then turned the tables on Stern and questioned him about his political stance. “I’ve always been a Hillary Clinton fan,” Stern revealed. “I think she would make a good president.” He added, “Trump, I’ve known for years. He’s a friend of mine and a friend of the show. But first of all, I don’t even think he wants to be president.” Stern added, “I think he’s shocked. I think it was a goof. He was probably thinking, I’ll get in and out in a month, and I’ll sell some books or something.” Listen below to a highlight from Cooper’s “Howard Stern Show” interview

“captive audiences in waiting rooms and airports”

That’s always bugged the crap outta me. Where I work the news feeds on the break room CCTVs has been replaced with weather channels only due to arguments nearly coming to blows on several occasions.

Hillary supporters would rather believe 1000 lies about Trump than one truth about Hillary.
