CNN arrogant reporters to their boss, “We don’t need no stinkin’ rules”. We make up stuff as we go along and that’s that.

And the winner in all of this is Putin. The losers, the American people.

Let the revolution begin.

This won’t prevent the CNN “panelists” from finding fake Russians under every bed and whining about it.

The DNC has probably issued marching orders to tone down the “Russia” stuff “and start talking about stuff people actually care about” but most of the CNN “panelists” are so dumb and so brainwashed by their own propaganda they won’t get the message until DNC thugs beat them up in the back alley.

Oh please...don’t end “Russia!, Russia!, Russia!”...that’s been so successful for you.

Actually it has been very successful for the RATs. Actually I cannot tell if the media or the RAT party is the master and which is the subservient one. Since the RATs now have a special prosecutor, he is surely NOT going to come up empty handed, anymore than Fitzgerald struck out. There will be a scalp, BUT Trump and Session can end this right now. There is no reason for a Special Prosecutor with the story dying and unprovable after a year of investigating by the DOJ best and brightest led by Comey.

Sucker has dropped coverage of real news at CNN in favor of political news, which is much, much cheaper, with all kinds of people throwing FREE content at you.

If you get banned from covering government, the strategy suddenly sinks like a rock, and all of the execs get fired.

I imagine that they are feeling the heat from advertisers now.

Yes, fake CNN has standards: don’t get caught lying.

Everything has to be smears with plausible deniability.

New rule: If you are going to make stuff up, make sure you have at least two unnamed fake sources.

All Fake News must originate from the editorial staff in order to coordinate with other fake news.

“Can Scaramucci sue them over this story?”

Absolutely he can. They did real damage to his reputation because the reality is that the Democrats in a few years will quote the original story as if it were a proven fact.

Also, CNN did this out of malice and with an intent to cause the man harm and that means they’re not immune to a libel lawsuit.
