CNN Cut 540 Words To Frame Trump For 'Favor' He Never Requested
Molly Hemingway ^

Posted on 09/25/2019 9:00:59 PM PDT by Bigtigermike

Via the Federalist: In the media’s efforts to tie President Donald Trump with its latest conspiracy theory, CNN skipped an entire section of the released and unredacted transcript of a phone call to charge Trump with requesting a favor he never asked for.

Below is text from the transcript of the July phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the center of the latest media outrage cycle.

I would like you to do us a favor, though, because our country has been through a lot and Ukraine knows a lot about it. I would like you to find out what happened with this whole situation with Ukraine, they say Crowdstrike… I guess you have one of your wealthy people… the server, they say Ukraine has it. [...]

Here’s the transcript has reported by CNN: “I would like you to do us a favor… There’s a lot of talk about Biden’s son, that Biden stopped the prosecution and a lot of people want to find out about that so whatever you can do with the Attorney General would be great. Biden went around bragging that he stopped the prosecution so if you can look into it… It sounds horrible to me.”

I think the only way is to get a whole lot of ATT small shareholders everywhere to band together and get a voting proposal on the next shareholder’s meeting to transform the corrupted CNN news operation.

That would help!

The “conservative” subscribers could also step up to the plate.

#7. And our side is keeping copies of all of CNN and MSNBC lies, distortions, selectively edited materials, and Deep State disinformation.

It will be used against the Democrats in this election year cycle.

There is a reason why the GOP symbol is the elephant while that of the Democrats is a jackass.

ELEPHANTS NEVER FORGET.

Jackasses get stepped on and turned into puddles of blood, piss and crap.

Where does it say President Trump will PAY for the favor??

THAT’S “QUID PRO QUO” something in exchange for something.

Ya know, like Biden’s PAYMENT FOR FIRING THE PROSECUTOR.

It's not just CNN. My small, hometown (online) newspaper is just as biased and corrupt as the MSM.

Liberalism is more than just insanity. It's a disease. And it spreads with the speed of a ray of light.

I don’t watch either. So, their main group that is watching are simply the criminals that are part of the Dimocommie party hopefuls and voters. I don’t bother watching any of those so called MSM “news” stations. I get my news from sites such as Free Republic and other conservative sites, NOT CNN, MSNBC, SeeBS, NBC, or ABC. NONE of them.

So much for Democrat concern regarding the accuracy of the transcript.

Well maybe they’re restricted to 300 words like posting news here? No?

................................................
The printed newspaper in my town, Frostburg, MD, is corrupt to the core. And every AP political article I’ve read since Trump announced his candidacy has been full of lies and distortions. Never trust any of the wire services, especially AP.
