Donald Trump: CNN 'Least Trusted Name in News'

President Donald Trump again criticized CNN after they published a false story about his son Donald Trump Jr. and Wikileaks, suggesting on Twitter that the network change their slogan.

“CNN’S slogan is CNN, THE MOST TRUSTED NAME IN NEWS,” he wrote. “Everyone knows this is not true, that this could, in fact, be a fraud on the American Public. There are many outlets that are far more trusted than Fake News CNN. Their slogan should be CNN, THE LEAST TRUSTED NAME IN NEWS!”

CNN reported that Donald Trump Jr. received an email from Wikileaks offering a web address and decryption key that would allow them to access Clinton campaign emails from WikiLeaks before the documents were publicly available.

That was fake news.

The Washington Post exposed the truth, noting that the email was dated AFTER the documents were publicly available — completely killing CNN’s narrative.

In response, CNN corrected the story but said they would not discipline their reporters who published the story based on faulty information and would not expose their sources.

CNN’s story was the third story in one week by the establishment media that had to be significantly corrected after publication.

Trump called CNN’s story “vicious and purposeful” and stated that they were “caught red-handed.”

“Fake News CNN made a vicious and purposeful mistake yesterday. They were caught red-handed, just like lonely Brian Ross at ABC News (who should be immediately fired for his ‘mistake’),” he wrote. “Watch to see if @CNN fires those responsible, or was it just gross incompetence?”
