Attacks on the press for being 'fake news' have become a staple of President Trump‘s rhetoric, with CNN - hosts/reporters included - often being called out by name.
"The only thing that's bothersome about it, is that I see being called 'fake news' as the equivalent of the n-word for journalists, the equivalent of calling an Italian any of the ugly words that people have for that ethnicity.That's what fake news is to a journalist.," CNN's Chris Cuomo told Michael Smerconish on SiriusXM POTUS (Ch. 124) Thursday.
"It is an ugly insult and you better be right if you're going to charge a journalist with lying on purpose and the president was not right here and he has not been right in the past," Cuomo added.
And the CNN host knows what it's like to be called 'fake news' by the president.

TRUTH HURTS, don’t it.
SNICKER, SNICKER!!
I wonder if he or anyone else at at CNN ever considered just TELLING THE TRUTH???
too easy?
Well if he is so upset about this then start asking real question to the Dems, and start reporting the truth. Not a half fact twisted with your lies.
Chris...you are not intentional...you are biased and sloppy.
Since the shoe fits, wear it.
Maybe we should start0 Licensing Commercial Speech for Profit or Gain, Background Check, Drug Testing weekly, Any Falsehoods told, immediate Suspension and Criminal Charges, Permanent removal of All rights to Commercial Speech for ANY CONVICTION,....
Just like the 2nd Amendment.
Hey Chris, you are the poster boy for FAKE NEWS!!
Fake News Cuomo, CNN’s answer to the N-word.
How about a “Whore”?
Actually, dirtbag, the term is explicit and means exactly what it sounds like...there's no "dog whistle" here.
Either; reporting demonstrably false information, repeating DNC talking points, or substituting long-running decoy stories for important breaking news events in order to hide them, is all fake news.
By the way, the "n-word" term you are looking for is "RATagandist".
How's that?
He has already had to apologize for the comparison.
I love it!
Once again a liberal displays his extraordinary powers of logic: When a “journalist” pushes a lie as truth and you do not accept it as truth because it IS a lie, you are in fact being racist.
I think he’s saying that he’d rather be called a liar.
If it’s as bad as the “n” word why didn’t he call them the “f” words.
