CNN did no such thing. They reported outright lies and falsehoods knowingly for 2 years. They came up with ridiculous buzzwords like "unidicted co-conspirator" and "bad actors" etc. that were used to describe the President and the people around him. They had people on every single day that said there was absolute proof of collusion.

In all the statements he could have made to defend his networks reporting, this had to be the dumbest.

Mighty liberal usage of the word "facts" there. Wasn't too terribly long ago that reporters dug out and verified their "facts". What can we expect though, people are liberally using the word "news" as well...when its 23.875 hrs a day opinion apx 20 min of actual events

How is this not a line straight out of Dr Strangelove? “Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the War Room!” Instead it’s now “We’re not investigators! We’re journalists!”

If your phone has a universal remote built in, find the setting for the tvs and change the channel

CNN prez Jeff Zucker: "We are not investigators. We are journalists, and our role is to report the facts as we know them, which is exactly what we did."

They didn't report facts as they knew them....they reported as they wanted them to be.

trump needs to find a way to break that lifetime exclusive contract they have to be broadcasted in all airports and public transportation outlets.

there must be a way to relist them as political propaganda and not be listed in any way as a news outlet, they havent even reported the news for over 12 years now, its all political propaganda
