CNN Says Trump Says the Media is the Enemy of the People

The President has been clear that it’s the FAKE NEWS MEDIA that is the enemy of the people not THE MEDIA

Donald Trump has called the fake media an enemy of the people quite a few times. He has noted, however, that media outlets have changed his statement to “the media is an enemy of the people” purposefully leaving out the word “fake”.

Here is an example of a CNN reporter repeating the charge that Donald Trump calleds “the media” an enemy of the people during an interview with Ben Stein.

“He said.. he called the media the enemy of the people.”

What Trump actually tweeted:

Mr Trump clearly referred to the “fake news media” as the enemy:

The FAKE NEWS media (failing @nytimes, @NBCNews, @ABC, @CBS, @CNN) is not my enemy, it is the enemy of the American People!

CNN: earning their new nickname everyday, Very Fake News!

Sean Spicer Shuts out Fake News Outlets From Press Gaggle

The “Fake News” media was sent into a tizzie today when ten media outlets were prohibited from participating in a “press gaggle’ in White House Press Secretary’ Sean Spicer’s office. Excluded from the press gaggle were CNN, the New York Times, Buzz Feed, the Washington Post, The Hill, Politico, the Daily Mail, the BBC, the Los Angeles Times and the New York Daily News.

Allowed access to Spicer’s office were alternative media news organizations Breitbart, the Washington Times, One America News Network. ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, AP, Reuters, Time and Bloomberg were also invited. AP and Time boycotted the event apparently in solidarity with their main stream media bretheren being excluded.

CNN immediately express outrage issuing a statement calling the exclusion “unacceptable” and CNN’s Jake Tapper calling the move “Un American“. Reporters Without Borders claimed that the exclusion was unacceptable “in the country of the First Amendment”.

Breitbart referred to the media outrage over their exclusion as “fake news”, noting that Presidents Obama often held private briefings exclusively for “liberal media” outlets.

Donald Trump Downgrades His Assessment of CNN From Fake News to VERY Fake News

At a freewheeling press conference today, Donald Trump continued an in-person assault on his media adversaries. During his first solo press conference as President, Donald Trump noted:

“Our nation’s reporters and folks will not tell you the truth. And will not treat the wonderful people of our country with the respect that they deserve. Many of our nation’s reporters and folks will not tell you the truth and will not treat you with the respect you deserve. Much of the media in Washington, D.C., along with New York, Los Angeles in particular, speaks for the special interests and for those profiting off the obviously very, very broken system.”

“The press has become so dishonest that if we don’t talk about it we are doing a tremendous disservice to the American people. Tremendous disservice. We have to talk about it. We have to find out what’s going on because the press honestly is out of control.”

Trump also touted his achievements, his approval ratings and referred to a BBC reporter “another beauty”. The highlight of the press conference occurred when Donald Trump took a question from CNN reporter Jim Acosta. When he was President-Elect, Mr. Trump refused to take a question from Mr. Acosta and told him CNN was terrible and “you are fake news“.

Here is the exchange with CNN’s reporter Jim Acosta where Donald Trump downgrades CNN to “Very Fake News”

Chris Cuomo: Calling A Journalist Fake News is Like Calling Someone the N Word

Fake News accusations are getting under the skin of main stream media reporters as the moniker begins to stick to them. The latest “fake news” reporter to indicate how sensitive they are to the charge of fake news is CNN’s Chris Cuomo. Chris Cuomo, whose fame as a reporter comes from his infamous lecture that the average person was not allowed to read the Wikileaks; that only he, as part of the “media”, could tell the public what was in them.

Today, Mr. Cuomo, brother of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, had the audacity to state “I see being called fake news as the equivalent of the N word for journalists, the equivalent of calling an Italian any of the ugly words that people have for that ethnicity.”

Mr. Cuomo’s comments are ludicrous. Calling a reporter fake news reflects a charge of lying or unethical reporting. Such a charge is behavior based. Calling someone an ethnic slur is not based on the actions of that person, but rather simply for being a member of an ethnic group. There is no “equivalent” as Mr. Cuomo asserted, other than calling someone an ethnic slur or fake news is an insult.

Mark Dice takes Mr. Cuomo to task here for his odious comparison of “fake news” and the “N Word” here:

Mr. Cuomo later apologized for his remarks that many thought insensitive and others just plain stupid.

AP Reports Fake News On Trump’s Intention to Invade Mexico

AP Reports that Donald Trump Told Mexican President In Telephone Call That U.S. Would Send Troops To “Stop the Bad Hombres Down There”

According to leaked telephone transcripts of a phone call between President Trump and Mexican Enrique Pena Nieto obtained by AP, Donald Trump threatened his Mexican counterpart with sending US Troops to stop the bad hombres.

AP editorialized regarding the transcript which has not been verified “the excerpt offers a rare and striking look at how the new president is conducting diplomacy behind closed doors. Trump’s remarks suggest he is using the same tough and blunt talk with world leaders that he used to rally crowds on the campaign trail.”

CNN followed up the AP story by speaking to the Mexican foreign minister Luis Videgaray who noted the call between Presidents Trump and Nieto was constructive. Mr. Videgaray also provided a transcript quoting Mr. Trump as saying: “You have some pretty tough hombres in Mexico that you may need help with. We are willing to help with that big-league, but they have be knocked out and you have not done a good job knocking them out.”

CNN noted that language differed from the internal read out the AP cited indicating President’s hostile and threatening tone.. Mr. Videgaray added the characterization that Donald Trump threatened to send troops unilaterally “was … nothing close to reality.”

“Nothing close to reality” meets our definition of “fake news”.

Washington Post – Time To Retire Term “Fake News”

Fake News Blow Back Hits Main Stream Media

Last week, on January 12, 2017, we reported that according to Rush Limbaugh, the New York Times was banning the use of the term “fake news”. Today, we learned of a story in the style section of the the Washington Post that appeared on January 8, 2017, calling for the retirement of the term fake news.

The term apparently has been co-opted and used against the Washington Post, NY Times, CNN and other main stream media purveyors of some times fake news for the Washington Post’s liking. Margaret Sullivan, previously a public editor at the New York Times, writing for the Washington Post referenced uses of the term fake news by former Senator Jim DeMint, Info Wars’ Alex Jones and an “arch conservative webstite” (unnamed but linked to Stop the Take Over .org) in her recent column.

For Ms. Sullivan such use by a “tea partier”, a “conspiracy theorist” and an “arch- conservative website”, of the term fake news was enough for her to conclude the term needed to be retired. In the manner of a top PC word police officer, Ms. Sullivan declared that the word fake news needed to removed from the lexicon because it had been co-opted and become removed from its original meaning.

Perhaps, instead the term “fake news” still meets Ms. Sullivan’s definition: “deliberately constructed lies, in the form of news articles, meant to mislead the public”. Look no further than three recent fake news stories published by the Washington Post and cataloged here that arguably meet that definition.

The term “fake news” is not going away. The main stream media weaponized the term fake news and created a Frankenstein. CNN was on the receiving end of a “fake news” truth bomb last week when President- Elect Donald Trump silenced a CNN reporting by calling his organization “fake news”.

New York Times To Ban Term “Fake News”

According to Rush Limbaugh, the New York Times will no longer use the term “fake news”. Seems the left’s “fake news” campaign to discredit alternative competing media outlets has backfired on them. Charges of “fake news” began soon after the Presidential election was over as an excuse for Hillary Clinton’s defeat.

Alternative media bloggers and you tubers leveled charges of “fake news” back at main stream news outlets and created their own fake news outlet list that included the New York Times, the Washington Post (for peddling the prop or not and Russian hacking of a Vermont power plant fake news stories) and CNN.

But no “fake news” charge was delivered so decisively as when Donald Trump yesterday silenced CNN reporter Dan Acosta by telling him his news organization was terrible and “fake news”.

BOOM!

It can only get worse from here for the main stream media, so the New York Times has chosen to cut its losses and stop using the term fake news.

Perhaps President Trump can call a reporter “racist” at his next news conference?

Trump Calls FAKE NEWS on CNN

The “fake news” chorus from the main stream media continues unabated. The fake news charges, however, are being turned on the main stream media by none other than President-Elect Donald Trump. Mr. Trump responded to reports by CNN that he would continue to be involved in “the Apprentice”, even when he assumes the Presidency.

Mr. Trump fire off this tweet, calling the charge ‘ridiculous’ and ‘untrue’ and labeling CNN’s account ‘FAKE NEWS’

One can only wonder how long the main stream media will continue its attack on fake news that seems to be convincing few, and in many instances, subjecting the MSM news outlets to ridicule and scorn.

CNN Channel Airs REAL Porn On Thanksgiving

Numerous news outlets are reporting that CNN aired a half hour of hard core pornography on Thanksgiving. CNN viewers expecting to see Anthony Bourdain’s travel show “Parts Unknown” around 10PM EST were showed instead a half hour of transsexual porn.

Luckily for CNN, the broadcast snafu was limited to RCN, a Boston area cable provider. RCN, however, does have a substantial reach with approximately 300,000 subscribers, so in spite of CNN’s low ratings, there were inevitably some viewers who would have seen the pornographic broadcast.

Given that a show “Parts Unknown” was replaced with transsexual porn leads to the suspicion that the programming snafu was an intentional act of sabotage.

Update: Mediaite – says report may be fake!
