I believe the only reason CNN (a.k.a. Fake News Network, or FNN) still exists is because if you want certain channels from your cable provider, you have to buy a "package of channels" in order to get them, and FNN is a part of that package.

I am surprised CNN would publish this piece.
Do they not know they look like crybullies?

Ban us from calling them fake news - who the fuck died and made them king? Go the fuck away, you are getting in the way of a normal society with all your bullshit.

I haven't clicked a CNN link or watched CNN since the little boycott several months ago. Turns out I never needed it. However, I have viewed several other news sites and YouTube sites that clearly show CNN faking stories.

Truth hurts eh?

^^^Bingo! Asking (or begging) also continues to diminish any remnant of respect or credibility CNN 'might' have still had.

Honest question. Has anyone ever seen any billion dollar corporation whine and behave like a spoiled five year old? This is just beyond embarrassing, and adults should know better.

Between being called fake news and no Mao ornaments on the tree, the commies in the media are just not happy with a Trump Christmas at the White House.

Maybe I'm jaded, but my first thought was that the click whores just want (aka desperately need) a ratings boost. All the comments of 'CNN = Fake news' will be counted as eyeballs & advertising dollars.

What a surprise! Dirty commies wanting to ban things they disagree with.

Guess the 1st Amendment shouldn't apply here, eh?
