‘CNN’ and ‘ Facts’ are mutually exclusive terms.
CNN Takes issue with Trump’s mention of Hillary’s deleted emails with this:
A server company working for Hillary Clinton deleted these emails using a free software program called BleachBit. BleachBit is not expensive. It involves neither actual bleach nor acid.
The emails were indeed deleted, in March 2015, three weeks after the House Select Committee on Benghazi issued a subpoena seeking the retention of Clinton emails. The server company employee told the FBI that he had deleted the emails after belatedly realizing he had forgotten to carry out a request made by Clinton aide Cheryl Mills, prior to the subpoena, to change Clinton’s email policy so that messages more than 60 days old would be automatically purged.

In other words, CNN believes the employee and then on that basis, calls Trump’s statement a lie.
CNN never entertained the possibility that the employee was lying.
