Chris Cuomo of Clinton News Network and brother of NYS Governor Andrew Cuomo recently went off on Sen. Ron Johnson for insinuating (and Johnson was 100% truthful) that MSM is using incomplete information when attacking the GOP health proposal.

Per Cuomo:

The ironic thing is that networks like CNN brought up the whole #FakeNews story line when trying to discredit President Trump's victory as being caused by Russia-linked "fake news" spread on Facebook and other social media outlets This gives somewhat of a rundown: 2016 Lie of the Year: Fake news | PolitiFact

And while #fakenews was an issue during 2016 (just like it is in every election/every day) and even perhaps at higher levels than before, it was dishonest and not in the spirit of conciliation to try to blame President Trump's victory on #FakeNews. For one, #FakeNews stories were targeted at both Hillary and Trump. Secondly, and perhaps most importantly, the angle that the MSM took after President Trump's victory, was done so in a way to only discredit Trump, completely disregarding the many, many legitimate reasons Americans had to vote for President Trump and against Crooked Hillary.

But, luckily for us, we have someone in President Trump who is willing to give it as hard (and 10x worse) as its given to him. Now #FakeNews is being thrown right back at these subversive MSM networks like CNN and the NYT. Just a reminder to be careful what you wish for
