President-elect Donald Trump held his first press conference since winning the November election on Wednesday at Trump Tower, and boy it did not disappoint. Trump bemoaned the lack of honest reporters in today's culture, particularly after a new report from BuzzFeed that suggested Russia had incriminating information on him. The piece was uncorroborated. It was rumored CNN also published the report, but Jake Tapper pushed back at that claim after the press conference.
Trump took out his frustration on the media in the room.
BuzzFeed, Trump said matter-of-factly at the presser, is "a failing pile of garbage," while also criticizing CNN.

"Since you're attacking us are you going to allow us a question?" CNN reporter Jim Acosta shouted.
Im not going to give you a question," he said. "You are fake news.
The audience awarded Trump with applause.
Tapper said he can understand why Trump would be frustrated with the shoddy reporting of BuzzFeed, but lamented how he treated his coworker.

Yeah!
Awesome!! Nothing worse than being irrelevant. MSM is now totally irrelevant.
Cultural marxists have no manners!
Even before this they didn’t deserve a question.
Lol - so much winning!
No...
BEST.
ELECTION.
EVER !!!!
That line by the President MADE MY EFF-ING DAY!
Priceless tweet from Wood.
CNN says they did not report the details of the report. But they did. They were on the radio yesterday giving details from the report. They also were speculating that it may be true. So, they may be trying to say that they did not release the written version of the report, but they did suggest that the English government was suggesting it was true. And they listed many of the things in the report on air.
oops, my bad, i stand corrected.
Bwahahahahahaha!
Dear CNN: I will now give you advice on how to restore your reputation and become the most respected News Network on television: First, apologize for your obvious bias and pushing of fake news....Second: Fire EVERYONE and start over....Thirdly: COMMIT yourselves to ONLY telling the truth from a completely neutral point of view and delivering HARD NEWS......I tell you these things knowing full well you will not.
Good for Trump.
There is no link for the video other than Obama farewell speech. Why not post the actual link to the actual video instead of an ad-infested web site?
QUESTION FROM JIM ACOSTA CNN: Since youre attacking us, can you give us a question? Mr. President-elect
TRUMP POINTING TO DIFFERENT REPORTER: Go ahead.
QUESTION AGAIN CNN: Mr. President-elect, since you are attacking our news organization...

QUESTION CNN: Can you give us a chance?
TRUMP: Your organization is terrible.
QUESTION CNN: You are attacking our news organization, can you give us a chance to ask a question, sir? Sir, can you...
TRUMP: Quiet.
QUESTION: Mr. President-elect, can you say...
TRUMP: Hes asking a question, dont be rude. Dont be rude.
QUESTION: Can you give us a question since youre attacking us? Can you give us a question?
TRUMP: Dont be rude. No, Im not going to give you a question. Im not going to give you a question.
QUESTION: Can you state...
TRUMP: You are fake news. Go ahead.
QUESTION: Sir, can you state categorically that nobody no, Mr. President-elect, thats not appropriate.
TRUMP: Go ahead.

CNN is FIRED!
The man has balls.... Big brass ones. Something that John McCain does not have as he trys to discredit Trump.
