It was reckless and relied on unproven/unsubstantiated/uncorroborated source. CNN, which had access to the entire report for a while (so they knew it was un-sourced and unverifiable), sought (or would have had the effect) of discredit Trump (even MSNBC had more journalistic integrity than CNN in this case).

Think of it this way: reporting that Larry Sinclair made allegations during prior campaigns that Obama gave him oral sex and smoked crack with him would have been "true," but would have been extremely reckless as the allegations were unverifiable and uncorroborated. Legitimate news organizations don't report on stuff like this without more to corroborate. Simpy put: this was like an Alex Jones InfoWars hit job.

I'm more worried about the proven collusion of the press with the democrats and the extremely biased reporting influencing the election. Imagine how much bigger the landslide would have been had the press not been in Hillary's pocket.

It wasn't the hacking that influenced the election, it was the contents of the hacks. The democrat's sly dealings got blown wide open. I'm sure the Rs have similar emails like when the establishment was scheming against Trump, I would like that blown wide open too.

The was the best news conference I've seen in the last 8 years. Finally a President that's not afraid to call out CNN for what they really are. What a breath of fresh air. The next 8 years are going to be great!

I sure didn't see any crying yesterday. Maybe you are talking about Obama.

CNN got the dressing down that it deserved. Bigly.

Trumplethinskin is always throwing hissy fits and that was one yesterday. He's such a thin-skinned classless oaf. He probably should relocate to Russia where the media is state run by a dictator, which is what he would love to emulate here, but that will never happen.

"Trumplethinskin, classless oaf, dictator, hissy fits."
Certainly no argument based on logic or fact.
