Didn't go so well for the "News" execs

quote:

“It was like a f—ing firing squad,” said one source.


quote:

“Trump started with Jeff Zucker and said I hate your network, everyone at CNN is a liar and you should be ashamed….


quote:

“The meeting was a total disaster. The TV execs and anchors went in there thinking they would be discussing the access they would get to the Trump administration, but instead they got a Trump-style dressing down,” the source added.


quote:

"...then he referred to a horrible network correspondent who cried when Hillary lost who hosted a debate – which was Martha Raddatz who was also in the room."


quote:

“Trump kept saying, ‘We’re in a room of liars, the deceitful dishonest media who got it all wrong. He addressed everyone in the room calling the media dishonest, deceitful liars. He called out Jeff Zucker by name and said everyone at CNN was a liar, and CNN was network of liars.


Most excellent

ETA: Adding more highlights.

They were shocked at this?

CNN especially deserved this treatment after all the shite that leaked out thanks to the DNC and Podesta leaks.

I knew it wouldn't be long before one side or the other tried to spin the outcome of the private meeting.

That's why he's the President today. Good for him. Kick those f'ers to the curb where they belong.

Considering CNN's full, un-edited coverage of Trump's rallies helped him get an insane amount of exposure, I would say trump should be thankful

I hope this is true

frick those people, for once they got an earful of what normal people think about them

seriously - frick them

and anyone who frets that Trump needed to extend an olive branch in the hope of better & more fair coverage - frick that

they were never going to be fair anyway - in fact, this approach has a better shot of getting him fair coverage than any attempt to play nice would have

I don't believe this for a second. No way in hell his team allows him to call in every head of the media and then berate them like that. We all wish he would, but there is no way that happened.

Good. On another note, the RNC needs to address future POTUS debates right now. As in tell them we are going to explore different networks due to leaking of questions, or we are not going to participate.

The grown ups are in charge.
