CNN Story Non-Story Story

So does this stuff never end?



CNN broke with a story claiming that Donald Trump Jr received an email with information regarding some unreleased Wikileaks material. CNN reported that Trump was provided an encrypted key to open up this information and effectively get first crack at it. The report implied that this was a recent discovery, and certainly would be leading to something substantial.

Turns out that the email was sent to Donald Trump, Donald Trump Jr, possibly Baron Trump, pretty much every member of the Trump staff, associates, and apparently many "others". The emails were not a recent discovery, but had been forwarded by the Trump campaign to the investigators along with every other relative email that they turned over several months ago.

Furthermore, CNN acknowledged that they had the date wrong, that they had incorrectly referenced a particular tweet as being relevant, failed to disclose that there is no evidence that anyone even read the email, and that the information that the email supposedly referenced was apparently little more than a PDF of information previously released by Wiki leaks.

They don't even know who the sender is, and he apparently has nothing to do with Wikileaks. Looks more like some guy who copied and pasted the wikileaks information in a PDF format to make it easier to search.

CNN provided this - even as their headline still implies something more devious.
Washington (CNN)Correction: This story has been corrected to say the date of the email was September 14, 2016, not September 4, 2016. The story also changed the headline and removed a tweet from Donald Trump Jr., who posted a message about WikiLeaks on September 4, 2016. 
The new details appear to show that the sender was relying on publicly available information. The new information indicates that the communication is less significant than CNN initially reported.
While the correction is well noted. It might be better if they removed the headline that still suggests what they originally were reporting, or simply retracted the entire story.  MSNBC and others had the same story on their front page, referencing the "original" CNN description of events. The last time I looked (about an hour ago) MSNBC was not including any of the corrections.

This is purely a very blatant attempt to slowly but surely poison the well with incorrect information, in order to undermine and discredit the President. Funny how that works. CNN, ABC, MSNBC, all blatantly lie, and it makes liberals distrust the President even more. Go figure.

President Trump has exposed Hillary , Democrats and the liberal press has gone fucking insane.

I have to wonder if these botched stories are deliberate. This way, even though false, the headline still gets out.

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

Why don't you post stories about the President that are true that shows he lied or is acting impulsive and exhibiting irresponsible behavior?

Oh yeah, that would be responsible.

You actually believe that the stories that eventually were incorrect, were really and deliberately designed to hurt your President. Probably part of the Soros conspiracy to get Trump .

I've been watching politics for my entire life. From the Kennedy v Nixon debate. You actually believe that the media is a giant conspiracy to make destroy Trump. First the premise is that this a giant conspiracy. Look, these companies are not all working together. Your obsession with Clinton is baseless allegations such as Bengazi. But you believe what you want. Facts don't matter.

well alky,

MSDNC's ralph "strap on" maddow devoted an entire "special report" last night to the trump dossier. as in taking it fucking seriously long after everyone else knows it to be a fucking joke.

it appears that the various factions of the media, while not necessarily working in concert to take down this president, all seem to be in their own way pursuing the same goal.

HOW many times has CNN been busted peddling fake news? i've lost count. at some point CNN's peddling of fake news is going to become its own story. and legitimate journalists, the few that remain, are going to start reporting on efforts from CNN and others to take down this president as REAL news. because it is.

CNN had a rough Friday.

First, the network had to correct egregious, humiliating fake news in a report about Trump-Russia collusion.

Now, it seems CNN cannot get the identities right of White House staff. In a segment featuring a quote from current Trump deputy director of communications Raj Shah, CNN used in the image of another Raj Shah, who served in the Obama White House.

More political analysts think franken has no intention of leaving and will back out of his resignation once Moore is seated

Commonsense said...

The rush of the main stream media to "get something on Trump" has backfired on them badly.

If they want to counter Trump's fake-new narrative they better start being objective and get the story right.

Right now he's winning the narrative.

commie said...

He who has no sins, cast the first stone as faux corrects a fake headline....LOL

Fox News felt a wave of outrage after publishing a misleading story which said one of the women who has accused Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore of sexual abuse "forged" part of her yearbook inscription signed by the Republican.
The Fox News story was published after Beverly Young Nelson sat down with "Good Morning Amerca's" Tom Llamas which aired on Friday. In the interview, Nelson said she made "notes" under Moore's inscription. In a news conference later on, Nelson's lawyer, Gloria Allred, said Nelson had written the notes so she could remember who Moore was and when and where he had signed the book, according to ABC News.
Nelson reiterated, however, "He did sign it."
Fox News did a report on Nelson's interview and the headline read, "Roy Moore accuser admits she forged part of the yearbook inscription attributed to Alabama Senate candidate."
The headline has since been changed, and the coinciding tweet has been deleted, but an archive of the post still keeps the original headline available. The current headline now reads, "Roy Moore accuser admits she wrote part of yearbook inscription attributed to Alabama Senate candidate."

commi said...

More fake news perpetrated by our idiots.

Commonsense said...

Originally Allred said Moore wrote the note and they admitted that it was added by Nelson later.

She also said she added the "DA" after Moore's name thinking he was the district attorney.

Whether you call it a forgery or not the damage to Nelson's credibility is just the same.

September 4, 2016
September 14 2016

This difference has sent Trump World into a Fake News orgasms.

Just coincidentally the President tweeted on September 4 2016 .

Interestingly,” CNN reporter Manu Raju said on the air, “the same day that Donald Trump Jr. received this email was the first time that he appears to have tweeted about WikiLeaks.


WIKILEAKS: Hillary Clinton Sent THOUSANDS of Classified Cables Marked "(C)" for Confidential

The FBI released documents Friday evening before the Labor Day Holiday on the agency’s interview with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The report contains numerous bombshells that show just...
thegatewaypundit.com

So despite the fact that Jr. actually got the email on September 14, daddy sent the above tweet above from the wingnut Gateway Pundit on September 4, 2016.

The President had information from someone (named Putin) indirectly ten days before the original CNN report.

The media is not in a coordinated effort to destroy the President. That claim by our esteemed host insane claim, mistakes happen.

so if you were 9 and in 5th grade in 1960

but you didn't graduate until 1969 and didn't skip or repeat a grade

just saying your story doesn't add up

I just went through my head, and despite the belief by some that it's empty, the Kennedy V Nixon debate happened when I was in fourth grade. But I was 9. My fourth, fifth and sixth grade teachers were very good. By the time I finished grade school, I was reading at college level.
