The President’s fake news saga continued as he lashed out at CNN. He had been accusing the media outlet of misinforming the public.
He had accused NBC News of doing the same and said they should lose their license. On the other end Trump had showered Fox News with lots of praise.
Many of the stories carried by these networks had proven true. This could be the main reason Trump was calling out these media outlets.
He lacked the control needed to keep them in check. This created a problem for him since no vetting could be done.
But if these media outlets are spreading fake news, then who can be trusted to vent stories?
CNN
Correspondents from CNN said “it’s not CNN’s job to represent the U.S to the world. That’s yours. #FactsFirst.”
Trump tweeted “@FoxNews is MUCH more important in the United States than CNN, but outside of the U.S., CNN International is still a major source of (Fake) news, and they represent our Nation to the WORLD very poorly. The outside world does not see the truth from them!”
Trump had constantly been criticizing anyone and any franchise that don’t agree with him.
CNN however have held their own, responding to Trump on twitter with a tweet of their own.
