Unethical and deceitful in what way. Cruz and crew admitted it was a simple mistake from an erroneous report. Cruz even apologized.
Unless you have some information that it was malicious please share..
Of course it was malicious. If only 4 voters from each of the 1500 precincts swayed their vote from Carson to Cruz, then Trump would have won.
Another thing, did they even bother to verify what CNN said by asking Carson directly. I have seen no evidence of that.
In short, they were deceitful and unethical.
But as they say, all is fair in war and politics. There is just something about Cruz that I have not liked ever since the first debate.
