Jeff Zucker spoke about Trump's frequent attacks on CNN in a new interview

'My job is to remind everyone they need to stay focused doing their job', he said

He added: 'He's trying to bully us, and we're not going to let him intimidate us. You can't lose confidence and let that change the way you conduct yourselves'

CNN has been under fire this week for allegedly 'blackmailing' the person who created a meme that was lifted then tweeted out by Donald Trump on Sunday

It showed the president tackling a figure with CNN's logo for a head and hitting it

CNN President has hit back at Donald Trump and his near-constant attacks on the network, saying he is comfortable going to battle with the commander-in-chief every day.

'I'm comfortable going to work in Thunderdome every day,' Zucker told the New York Times, referencing the steel cage where people fight for their lives in the Australian film franchise, Mad Max.

'My job is to remind everyone that they need to stay focused doing their job.

Zucker apparently was ill educated on what is genuine journalism. He simply, as a leader, needs to guide his people to become real journalists.

Instead he seems to be guiding his people to be propagandists and practice yellow journalism. It is very sad to see someone so rich be so poor.

.... which is to make up fake news stories and blackmail 15-year-olds into apologizing for saying things we don't like."

Mr President, NEVER call on a CNN enemy. It is not worth your time, and those who support you do not want to hear from them.

If CNN suits are worried about being bullied by Trump, I’ve got some bad news. It’s already happened. Trump has these media lug nuts rattling around inside the hubcaps, causing an awful racket but otherwise no longer serving any useful purpose. Meanwhile. the tires slowly deflate on their outmoded vehicle as it crashes, in slow motion, over the cliff

it's the intolerant Leftists at CNN are, in fact, doing the "bullying" they profess to hate so much.

That is one of the things that defines Bullying and the Left.

I think that in the not too far future it will be apparent that by July 2017 CNN had already lost it all.

“I’m comfortable going to work in Thunderdome every day,’ Zucker told the New York Times,”

Two men enter; one man leaves.

Zucker thinks he’s Master Blaster.
