White House: CNN ‘a Disgrace to All of Media, to All of Journalism’
Breitbart ^ | 06/27/17 | Joel B. Pollak

Posted on 06/27/2017 1:06:43 PM PDT by Enlightened1

Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told the White House Press Corps on Tuesday that CNN was “a disgrace to journalism.”

Sanders’s remarks came after CNN retracted a “fake news” story over the weekend alleging links between a member of President Donald Trump’s transition team and a Russian firm, and after an exposé on Monday by James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas showed a CNN producer admitting the Russia story was “bullsh*t.”

Earlier in the day, President Donald Trump had blasted CNN on Twitter, along with other mainstream media networks. He also retweeted a parody of the CNN logo that recast the channel as “FNN” — “Fake News Network”:

More than just hypocrites.

“..fake news was called “disinformation,” an invention of Joseph Stalin..”

..disinformation (dezinformatsiya).

“Disinformation is false information spread deliberately to deceive and cause chaos.”

Propaganda. Disinformation. Lies.

#FAKENEWS

Tools for deceiving your enemy.

One of the tactics of war is deception, deceiving, and lying. The Opposition Party lies because it is one of the war tools. Get used to it. And come to realize that we are at war. They know they are at war. So we better act like it also.

The Opposition Party are #FAKEAMERICANS

The Opposition Party will continue their lies, distortions, and obstructionism. It is what they do. Make it as difficult on their enemy as possible.

They are at war with conservatives. If you are not a leftist and one of them, then you are their enemy.

The leftist Opposition Party is:
- msm (CNN #FAKENEWS, NBC, etc)
- Democrats
- GOPe/RINOS (such as McCain, etc)
- Hollywood
- Education (universities, colleges, etc)
- intelligence community

What would the severely conservative mitt romney havedone under fake news attacks?

He would have apologized, say he’ll try better, and turn the other cheek. There was not a single ounce of backbone in that man, and most of the gop.

“Empirical facts” Tapper? Really? I have a feeling you don’t even realize what those two words mean strung together like that.

What a clown from a clown car of a media outlet.

They’ve slandered the President of the united states repeatedly. No one should be too surprised since they tried the same tactics with G. W. Bush.

Thanks for the explanation. I saw “No Getty” all the way at the bottom of the link. My bad. (It was a really funny image for the post though.)

Thanks very much for posting the explanation of why the #6 photo was pulled (no Getty images allowed). Much appreciated.

For those who didn't see the pulled post...the question was what would Mitt Romney have done under fake news attacks?....the neato photo showed a guy in a nice suit cowering on his knees in a corner facing the wall and with a lampshade pulled down over his head. It was so apropos to the question....and really funny to look at given the question.

A great laugh among the grim news all around us these days.

Geico is a CNN sponsor? Not to mention they’re arguably the worst insurance company out there. It’s best to avoid that company.

In fairness to Romney, I can't think of many career politicians who are unafraid of the liberal media. They come to DC initially with plenty of bravado, vim and vigor soon to be seduced by the DC swamp. That is what makes Trump different. He does not NEED a political career to live a grand life.

Sometimes it’s so funny you’d think it was written by FReepers. Acosta threw a hissy fit, and the next day the White House publicly calls out CNN as disgraceful. Like an angry mom scolding her 5 year old for egging the neighbor’s house.

Angry Little Jimmy Acosta has his pink panties in a wad every day. He suffers from little man syndrome for sure. What a sanctimonious @ss.

He should get down on his knees and lick President Trump’s shoes, he owes his 15 minutes of “fame” to President Trump.

ROFL!! That’s why we love Trump. He channels what we think into tweets :)

It’s almost like a miracle.

Trump is like water - when he counter-attacks, he seeps into every available niche/nook/cranny and patiently erodes the defenses until the dam starts leaking.

Wait until the next three Project Veritas undercover films come out. All aren’t from CNN. Wonder who else they hit — MSNBC, I hope.
