    Propaganda starts with discrediting non-state news sources which is exactly what you and the new blowhard-in-chief are investing so much energy in doing. Trump is going to run all over your freedoms. Enjoy.

    I did read through her feed. Lots that you see in her feed are re-tweets of those very people you claim are classless.

    Well, the short answer is that in most cases, they get away with it.

    CNN hasn't offered objective, quality news in a long, long time.

    I agree. And it's finally being recognized by folks...

    Uh, and what does that have to do with CNN making up an untrue "news" story?

    Yup. One of those two options is what happened, and neither one reflects very well on CNN.

    Less and less people rely on CNN to get the story straight. The audience trend line doesn't look good for the company...

    Who said anything about her being supportive of Trump? You don't need to be supportive of Trump to recognize that CNN is operating in a scummy way.

    Yeah, the examples keep coming...

    Sorry you feel that way, but I think you're wrong. Obama and company did that...just ask conservative groups who were audited for no reason by the IRS; just ask people who were denounced because they weren't PC enough; just ask reporters like James Rosen and Sharyl Attkisson whose computers were hacked by the government. MSM was implicit in helping Obama erode our rights...

    I don't see CNN operating in a scummy way. Frankly, from looking through Nancy Sinatra's Twitter feed and reading the comment she made about her dad's song, I can see why CNN thought she was making a political statement. The fact that they came back and changed their story reacting to her criticism says they are trying to get the story right.

    I think the automatic discrediting of our news sources isn't good for the country. Journalists are humans, so there are going to be errors. When those errors are noticed and corrected, we're getting much better coverage than those news sources that deliberately report slanted news and never correct their error, even when it is pointed out to them. Journalism has an important role to play in our democracy.

    CNN is now officially fake news central and you should never source them in a thread

    Several left wing sources that spin everything to the left

    I went to school when you did before the left took it over. A journalism class I took stuck with me to this day. It was about how to critically read between the lines of a story and analyze it. We were taught to figure out what the article was about and what the author of it wanted us to believe and take away from the article. It has served me well.

    CNN is a DNC propoganda news source, it is Pravda west and deserves to be discredited.

    Of course you didn't address how it was wrong. Liberals will defend, or deflect first CNN. But luckily that's why you are losing.

    You expect a rag like Breitbart to report the truth? Good luck with that.

    Question, sorry if this sounds rude. Just trying to make sense of your post. How can you trust a news outlet which lies to you on a regular basis? And how can you distrust a news outlet which reports real stories?

    Seems backward to me!!

    CNN corrected the story as soon as they realized they had gotten it wrong.

    Trump, on the other hand, has been clocked at about 1 lie every three minutes and NEVER corrects himself. But you all could care less.

    Why do you suppose that is? Hmmmmmmm?
