'My blood ran cold': Christiane Amanpour on Trump media comments
CBC News ^ | Nov 26, 2016 9:00 AM ET | By Diana Swain

Renowned CNN foreign correspondent 'worried' by current climate for journalists in U.S.

CNN chief international correspondent Christiane Amanpour suggests Donald Trump's words about the media worry her "very much."

One of the world's best known foreign correspondents told CBC's The Investigators that her "blood ran cold" when Donald Trump tweeted out that those who were protesting in the streets after his election win had been "incited by the media."

Amanpour says several statements made in recent months by the U.S. president-elect — in which he has variously described journalists as "despicable and dishonest," "crooked" and "liars" — can be the beginning of a dangerous political narrative.

Earlier this week, Trump held meetings with several high-profile U.S. journalists, including some of Amanpour's CNN colleagues. The gathering with TV network executives and anchors at Trump Tower in Manhattan was later reported to be a dressing-down by the president-elect for what he considered their unfair treatment of him during the election campaign.

Yes, it has been the best election in my lifetime. We got a bonus when Castro croaked.

If we can get Amanpour’s blood to run cold, global climate change will have done its job.

that her “blood ran cold” when Donald Trump tweeted out that those who were protesting in the streets after his election win had been “incited by the media.”

What part of his statement is untrue?

A refrigerator for pork sausages? It’s good to know that there’s at least some useful purpose served by the existence of that woman.

he has variously described journalists as "despicable and dishonest," "crooked" and "liars"

And every word of his comments is true, with the possible exception that he left out a few negative descriptions.

Poor little flower Christiane Amanpour just can't deal with the truth.

This is the same “woman” who referred to the on-camera murderer of a prostrate police officer in France as an “activist.”

She can rot in hell.

Wikileaks has exposed most of the media for what they truly are, a servant of the Democratic Party. They ask what stories they should write, they allow their stories to be edited, they even cheat

She should be worried as I feel that the MSM is at a pivotal point in time. Either admit their errors and move one showing they have changed through actions, OR BE BELITTLED BY THE NEW ADMINISTRATION AT EVERY TURN.
