Think about it for a minute. How many times have you seen the media in the past year alone, having to retract statements? Make corrections of sorts? Find out that stories were 100% wrong. Find out that stories were outright lies. Very very rarely have there been apologies. It's obvious that the MSM has had it in for Donald Trump, and have been nailed just so many times in their attempts to defame and/or try and bring him down. If he weren't the POTUS, he could easily sue for millions and millions for defamation and such. This is the worst I have ever seen our media, it's downright embarrassing. And THIS is why we need Trump to have the use of his twitter account, faults and all.

Trump Savages Media After Fake News Blowups, But What He Said About CNN And ABC Takes The House Down

Over the past few weeks, multiple mainstream media outlets have been busted for fake news.

Both CNN and ABC have both had to issue corrections for misleading and false reporting. On Friday, CNN had to issue an embarrassing correction to a false story they pushed about Russian collusion in the election.

At a rally in Florida Friday night, President Donald Trump took a hammer to the fake news reports. Trump began touting how much the media has been apologizing for fake news.


But, and by the way, did you see all the corrections the media has been making? Saying ‘Sorry we made a mistake.’ They have been doing that all year. They never apologize. Maybe that comes with being the President. I don’t know? They have been apologizing left and right.

Then, Trump went after ABC’s Brian Ross, who reported fake news about Russian collusion last week. Ross has since been suspended by ABC. Trump gloried in Ross’s suspension before calling for his firing. Trump said:


They took this fraudster from ABC. They suspended him for a month. They should have fired him for what he wrote. He drove the stock market down 350 points in minutes, which, by the way, tells you they really like me, right? And you know what he cost people? And I said to everybody, get yourself a lawyer and sue ABC News. Sue them.

Then Trump went to work on CNN.


And then CNN apologized just a little while ago. They apologized. Oh, thank you, CNN. Thank you so much. You should have been apologizing for the last two years.

The audience erupted.

Although, point of clarification, CNN only corrected the story and has not apologized or disciplined their reporters as of this posting.
