CNN’s Stelter: Trump Supporters ‘Confused’ by ‘Fake News’ Sites

And CNN is confused by real news.

[truth_seeker]

1. Did Clinton state a plan to increase admittance of muslim refugees by 550% ??

2. Did Clinton use private email, and lie repeatedly about it ?? Did Martha Stewart go to federal prison for less than Clinton did ?? Did Petreaus lose his job, for less than Clinton did ??

3. Did Clinton spread the lie, that our people were killed in Benghazi over a video ?? And then say “what difference does it make?”

No fake news, there.

“Now, to be clear, fake news infects the left and the right,” he noted at one point, “but the evidence indicates this is more of a problem on the right, among some, not all, but some Trump supporters.”

CNN: doing a "fake" news story, about "fake news stories".

IOW, they're trying to get people to look elsewhere, and not at themselves as being one of the main sources of the fake news. Accusing others of what they do, is a defensive move. Pointing a finger at others, while three fingers are pointing back at them.

Don’t forget Pulitzer Prize winners Janet Cooke and Walter Duranty.

No, that would be Democrats (like the MSM.)

The news sites all got the election horribly wrong - you’d think they’d fact check but nooooo. They need not worry that anyone will hold them accountable for intentionally misleading the nation to believe Hillary was going to win - because all their friends are journalists too and they won’t say a word about it. So the most dishonest, inaccurate media since “The Pravada” is now hot in pursuit - smearing Republicans for believing fake news!

I often get confused by fake CNN reporters like Stelter. They smile like they are honest, but after the first 5 minutes, their bullcrap offends my intellect like a week old beer fart.

The problem is not that American voters get the wrong news, or the wrong opinion, the real problem is the American voters are not getting the whole news story at all.

It ain't what is being reported which is untrue that is the problem, it's what is not being reported that is true which is the problem.

The left withholds news on a scale that simply overwhelms in quantity, in distribution, in prestige and in seriousness the inconsequential harm done by a pipsqueak fake news sites.

Like gun control, history tells us that the left will work this distortion until they can steal our First Amendment liberties of speech and conscience.

I am not confused. I know the fake “news” sites and organizations.

Correct: Opinions are just that and everyone has a right to their opinion
