CNN responds to being excluded from press briefing: 'This is unacceptable'
By Brooke Seipel - 02/24/17 02:47 PM EST
CNN on Friday sharply condemned the decision by the White House to block it and several other outlets from covering a question-and-answer session with White House spokesman Sean Spicer.
"This is an unacceptable development by the Trump White House. Apparently this is how they retaliate when you report facts they don't like. We'll keep reporting regardless," CNN said in a statement.

CNN shouldn’t be allowed to write comic books, nevermind report news
Everytime some reporter or host asked about the ban,the Trump admin. Should respond with a list of FAKE NEWS articles CNN authored....
They’ll stop asking
Fake News organizations like CNN are not welcome.
And that is a good thing.
Reward the media that report the news, not make it up.
They can always rely on “facts” from third party, unnamed sources, right?
I’m sure they think they ARE reporting facts, but without proper context it can turn into liberal propaganda. People say or do things all the time that can be taken out of context to slant what really happened. Things like Melania Trump “frowning” when Donald turns away from her, implying she’s unhappy or an abused spouse. It couldn’t just be that her mind shifted to concern for her children or focused on something else when Donald turned away. THAT is how organizations like CNN deceptively slant the news to fit their leftist/progressive agenda.
” reporting facts they don’t like”
You said it before me. They still don’t get it, do they. Boy — are they dumb. They should take a course in journalism -— as taught 50 years ago.
Watch OANN
The 1st Amendment to the U. S. Constitution:
“...Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion,
or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;
or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press;
or the right of the people peaceably to assemble,
and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances...”

It is my belief that the part that says ‘of speech, or of the press’
simply refers to the spoken word and the printed word.
‘The Press’ refers to a printing press, not an elite group of reporters.
There was no such thing as any organization or group of people
at that time that were know as ‘the press’.
As Mika admitted the other day, the MSM tries to control what people think.
We’re tired of being lied to, so that’s a tough tittie CNN. Pound sand.
Why do they need to be there? All they do is make $hit up anyway.

Perfectly acceptable.
In fact, it is quite beautiful!
That CNN still exists is what is unacceptable.
What a great way to end my day. I got to fly out to Colorado in August. Hopefully by then, CNN will be out of all the airport’s. CNN in the airport really makes me not want to fly.
CNN ;
DON’T YOU KNOW WHO WE ARE?
NPR;
HEY!
I’M ON LIFE SUPPORT HERE!
CNN has earned neither.
What’s happening with NPR and PBS is DJT on the case?
We don,t need perverted flashers at press conferences
So True!
Trumps Brilliance using Alinski tactics.
So, what are they going to do, start giving Trump bad press? I’ll bet the WH is really scared about that prospect, after all, they’ve never done that before.
Great screen grab...
McLame and Goober in the corner..
Winning!
What does CNN mean by unacceptable? They have no choice. Perhaps they think the courts will help them. Perhaps they will, given today’s courts.
