What a crock. If credibility and ethics were in tact, that false report would never had been published on their website to begin with. Furthermore, "urging" staff to resign and the retraction are due to their hands being tied with the threat of a lawsuit: CNN faced $100M lawsuit over botched Russia story | New York Post

Its hard to get anything on CNN's Cable Channel with the Trump / Russia 24 hour news cycle. So CNN Health is relegated to a web page. Without Zika or Ebola making headlines that is about it. I know they used to have health segments on CNN with Sanjay Gupta. That was when I would watch once in a while before they went all Trump all the time.

The producer was expressing more than his opinion he described the culture at CNN which was not flattering. Hopefully this whole thing will launch him into a better job at a better network.

Since we still don't know who killed Seth Rich, it's not "irresponsible" to talk about it. The family did not ask Sean Hannity not to talk about it. The Democrat supporting lawyer that the Rich family had hired said he doesn't want individuals going out there and spreading misinformation....which is hard to say what is misinformation when no one knows who killed Seth Rich.

But we all have a theory. A theory is not correct or incorrect...it's a theory.

Had Sean Hannity stated that the DNC killed Seth Rich, you would a good comparison. But he didn't say that.
So do you have evidence that the Trump/Russian collusion is untrue? We all know the Russians hacked the election. Since we don't know what hand the Trump team played in that then it is not "irresponsible" to talk about it.

And Seth Rich's family did indeed beg Hannity to stop speading conspiracy theories about their son.

Someone is refusing to see things.
"Russia got involved" is different from Trump/Russia collusion. I am sure you understand that.

The FBI investigator was not fired for investigating it because HE said Trump was not under investigation.

No, Fox did not have their license revoked. Someone said CNN should have their license revoked because of this fake story, and I said yeah, like Fox should have.
wrong. you said it WAS revoked.

fake news?

Default New CNN Bombshell: Van Jones - Russia is a nothing burger

It keeps getting worse for CNN. First firing 3 staffers for the fake Trump story after months of endless fake Trump stories (what took so long?) Then the CNN producer admitting the Russia story is fake news. Now Van Jones admits on video the Russia story is a "nothing burger".

Please. Project veritas does things like edit conversations where someone is talking about someone elses opinions, then represent it if they were that persons opinions.

This is garbage propaganda of the most disgusting sort. Why do you folks fall for okeefe over and over?

Are you deaf? Have you not listened to the multiple people in government, let alone the media, who have all said that it's not true?

Of course it is a nothing burger. Are you telling me in an administration where there seem to be so many leaks that nothing that shows Trump colluded with Russia has been leaked yet?
