As soon as the long-awaited press conference from President-elect Donald Trump wrapped up this afternoon, CNNs Jake Tapper took on the days speakers and main players for their treatment of his organization.
First, he addressed incoming press secretary Sean Spicer, who insinuated that CNN had also published the dossier of unverified reports on the President-elect that Buzzfeed posted last night. In reality, CNN reported that it existed and that Trump and President Barack Obama were briefed on its existence; only Buzzfeed released the document itself. Tapper noted as much in his broadcast.
CNN never did that. We never provided even one detail from that dossier, Tapper said. That conflation whether its because Sean Spicer misunderstood or some other reason thats not true. CNN did not do that.
You can see the report that they ran which appeared before the Buzzfeed report here.
He moved on to say that CNN has spent more than half a day asking the Trump camp for a comment and receiving nothing, which happened again at the press conference in a very dramatic way.
When Mr. Trump went after our own Jim Acosta, saying hes fake news and he isnt going to call for him, what I suspect we are seeing here an an attempt to discredit legitimate, responsible attempts to report on this incoming administration with irresponsible journalism that hurts us all and the media, going forward, should keep that in mind, Tapper stated, referring to Trumps refusal to call on a CNN reporter at the event.
Then, he turned to Buzzfeed itself, calling the organizations choice to put uncorroborated information online irresponsible for the second time today.
Thats why we did not publish it and why we did not detail any specifics from it, because it was uncorroborated and thats not what we do, he said carefully. Were in the business of sussing out what is true and what is false.

The CNN hacks were struggling to save face and maintain their composure.
They had the deer-in-the-headlights look of schoolyard bullies who just realized that the new kid has a black belt in karate.

Either way, it's fake news.
This affair is similar to the well-known SOP for the fake ‘mainstream’ media like CNN.
They really, truly want to put out the false news. They live for the opportunity to savage conservatives any way that they can, because in their heart of hearts, media outlets like CNN are fellow travelers with the Obamunists and the DNC.
But they know that they’ll likely get some blowback if they’re too obviously aggressive in flacking the false news.
So, cowards that they are, they let some other fake news outlet take the lead, essentially ‘newslaundering’ the fake story, so that they can then report that ‘XYZ says that’, believing wrongly that their own hands are unsullied as a result.
I’m so glad that Trump rubbed their noses in it. ESAD, Jake Tapper.
If GWB had forcefully stood up to the mediots’ and presstitutes’ lies, perhaps it would have spared us from eight horrible years of the Obama regime.
The more the public sees, the stronger, broader, and more intense Trump's support grows.
Maybe you guys should try to figure out where you went wrong. Just a friendly suggestion.
Oh, climb down from your high horse, you smarmy tool! Your cushy little propaganda outfit got a well-deserved azz kicking, something Americans have been wanting to see for a long time. YOU are a big part of WHY TRUMP WON, Jake, do you even understand that? No, because you're a stupid leftist shill. I relish the coming years of watching our AMERICAN president beat the daylights out of you and your ilk on behalf of the AMERICAN voter!
JAKE the FAKE!

Here’s a surprise....
little Sheppy Smith is already sticking up for CNN.
I’m just gobsmacked! ! At work all day...started at 5a.m.reading Twitter madness about Trump in Russia with hookers n golden showers..then couldn’t read til about 20 minutes ago. Holy crap mags, it’s the Wild West!
“We never provided even one detail from that dossier,
Did they provide a link to ButtFeed?
Watch, by Sunday, Trump’s team will send someone to CNN to defend themselves...
I’m at the point I don’t really care about the press anymore. THey have tried to elevate themselves on an equal par as the President and it’s just not the way it’s supposed to be. They have chosen their sides, screw them.
I don’t know about that, I just watched MSNBC allow Rand Paul to say all good things about Trump and Tillerman without any argument or interruption. Now they have the head guy from Buzzfeed on, accusing him of spreading fake news.
If NBC is to be believed . . .
DEAD EYS Tapper is a HACK!!!
What do expect from a VH1 news reject.
