Cruz took the CNN story and embellished it. CNN NEVER said Carson was out of the race.
Cruz lied.
You lie. Show me where Cruz or the campaign ever said Carson was definitely out. The memo from the campaign said Carson was "taking a break" from campaigning and would not be going to NH or SC after IA - which is what CNN reported. Steve King said it LOOKED like Carson was out - which it did based on the reports.
