The president of the Clinton News Network is worried about the future of journalism.
Gosh almighty, what will we do?
Apparently, CNNs president, Jeff Zucker, is worried about the future of (his) press.
New York Times reporter Liam Stack posted a tweet this week that claimed that Zucker said that Journalism is threatened by senior officials in our own government at the Overseas Press Club of America awards gala Thursday night.

The jab, seemingly at President Donald Trump, is almost laughable coming from the left-leaning news station. And even if Zucker didnt mean to, he revealed the real truth surround the American media and the Trump White House.
CNN doesnt have much love for Trump or, well, pretty much anything conservative. So its executives resort to whining.
Theyre in danger because theyre no longer living high on the hog under former President Barack Obama. (Under being the operative word for an ostensibly free media that disgraced itself sucking up to the powers of Washington for the eight years Obama was in office.)
Its absolutely ridiculous.
And it is exactly what happens when the mainstream media does not get its way.
They are under the impression that they are journalism, and if theyre not getting their way, journalism is in peril. Well, guess what?
Your constant spray of very fake news isnt landing like it once was because youve lost a massive portion of your credibility, Jeff.
No one cares about what you think, and fewer and fewer care about what you do.
Straighten up your insane reporting, or get out of the game the American people are seeing the scales falling from their own eyes, and theyre not happy with what theyre seeing at CNN.
As John Bender once said, “B-o-o. H-o-o.”
I would wager that 50% of the country just laughs and ignores #FakeNews these days.
I think only 30% of the country takes them seriously.
Throw a rope over a tree. Put Zucker on one end and Soros the other. Then open both trap doors.
Don’t worry, Jeff Zucker it’s only FAKE news that is threatened. Journalism is still doing just fine. You should find out about that journalism some time. It’s much different than what CNN does.
Honestly, I wish the truly were threatened, they are a domestic enemy that in a sane world would be dealt with.
Representative democracy is threatened by a press that is willing to lie, on a constant basis, in order to tear down one party and build up another.
CNN President Claims #fakenews propaganda business Is Threatened Under Trump Administration >>>> fixed the headline
Air America...
Clinton lost; Her network is going down.
It’s now got a credibility crisis.
Until a champion for one group (read, Donald Trump) digs in doggedly for the truth and doesn’t blink.
It’s never ever ever been like this
Not even with Nixon until maybe at the end
And that’s an iffy maybe
And I’m 60
What would CNN know about Journalism?

CNN is threatening itself through it’s deceit, deception, fake news and living hatred of our President. They are not journalists. They are insurgents, trying to take down the American form of government, to be replaced by what? For me, it is as though they live in a different culture which values only destruction of those whose ideas are different than their own. They certainly are not about keeping intact a culture of diversity.
Journalists complaining about lack of access, criticism from Trump, or their many other reasons, stopping them from doing their job is like batters complaining about lack of fastballs down the middle for low home run stats. If the media has lost trust, of sources or consumers, that’s their fault even if the “opponent” isn’t trying to help them hit home runs.
The threat to journalism isn’t coming from the administration. It’s coming from the big media organizations of which only a small part is “news” and which do not care about “journalism”.
Even the meme that “journalism” is a profession is fake. It’s not a profession, it’s a trade, like plumbing or carpentry.
CNNDNC>>>SPINSPINSPIN>>>Propaganda
If being caught in lies is reason for “feeling threatened” then one can solve the problem by not telling so many dang lies....it’s not rocket science.
It is said, you get the face you deserve.
If these hypothetical news outlets were actually reporting unbiased new then they would not be threatened. Since they are nothing more than political hack shilling for Democrats, illegals, sick deviants, and far left radicals they only have themselves to blame for their demise
