nice.

I can see why so many so strongly support Trump. He is a master at this sort of thing.

Uh-oh. This will likely cause CNN to drop their positive reporting on Trump and treat him poorly at the next debate!

Now you've done it, Mr. Trump! ...

Seems reasonable and gracious of CNN to do so.

Except there’s not an ounce of grace in any of those men and women.

So, if CNN won’t, will DT want to be compensated directly for his appearance on CNN? Sounds like it.

Only The Donald would have the smarts and brass to do this.

Every day Trump finds a way to make the headlines. Good news, bad news, arrogant comment, unexpected candor, major announcement, whatever.

Every. Single. Day.

He is a master of modern media promotion.

It will be the first time I’ve intentionally tuned into CNN for 20 years.

The media relies on election year money to fatten their coffers. They also form the narrative and host the debates. MASSIVE conflict of interest, anyone?

I agree. No one is better than Trump at manipulating the media. It’s refreshing. I’ve never seen anything like.

Would you watch if DT decides not to appear at the "debate"?

Zucker to Trump: “What profits?”

The Donald needs to inform CNN and the public that he will pull out of the televised debate. Instead he will live-stream his own simultaneous internet broadcast to the debate questions. Along with the answers, he will offer commentary on the debate questions and any attempt to elicit confrontation among the remaining participants.

What would happen to CNN's anticipated ad rates? Which audience would be larger, CNN's or Donald's?
