It appears CNN IS Fake News

[barbos]

I was watching Colbert and he was talking about how Putin during press conference admitted that he meddled in US elections
The only thing I found is RT talking about it, so close your noses you dirty Russo-fobes

Anyway, to make story short, I can attest you that Putin only said "I wanted Trump to win"
CNN lady insisted that he admitted meddling.

 

[Koyaanisqatsi]

Well, so long as you can attest to it, that’s all anyone needs.

Eh, go and fuck yourself.

Here is a british paper correctly interprets what Putin said

Trump-Putin meeting: Vladimir Putin admits he wanted Donald Trump to win election as US president praises Russian counterpart

 

[whollygoats]

BFD.

I'm not surprised that he 'wanted Trump to win'....FFS, he can control Trump. He had no such success with the opponent.

Just how fucking stupid are you, any way, barbos?

Apparently less stupid than you, cause you have not watched the video.
Speaking of fucking stupid, In the same press conference Trump says that Putin denied meddling, yet news lady and subsequently Steven Colbert whom I love both insist on this stupidity

 

[untermensche]

This is so much stupidity and desperation from the opponents of Trump.

The stupid Americans voted for Trump.

It is their fault. The Russians had nothing to do with it.

The US meddles and has meddled in too many elections to count.

It is sheer hypocrisy to cry about some meddling from Russia.

Pay close attention to the OP. From his posts, barbos is a demonstrated expert of fake news. So he knows of what he speaks.

I don't know how stupid Putin is but if he's anything like Donald Trump, he said yes but meant no but the answer is really yes.

What are you talking about? They asked Putin two part question, he answered the first part, second part was probably not translated to him at all. CNN made it look like he answered both yes. and CNN is the only news organization one who did this shit, the rest interpreted everything correctly

The question was did you a and did you b? Like this one. Pretend i ask you this "Do you honestly believe Putin and are you a Russian troll?" You are saying you can just answer a single "Yes I like mother russia" and only expect people observing to think you were answering first part. So, here's my wager. I will ask you the question and let's see if you are for real.

Do you believe Putin and are you a Russian troll?

CNN most definitely has a strong bias and very much can be fake news quite often. It is unfortunate, because Trump really does do a lot of shit that SHOULD be rightly called out, but CNN is becoming the boy who cried wolf. You can't trust what they say to come without a lot of spin. So when Trump calls it "Fake news" there is a ring of truth to it. Fox News is worse but that doesn't make CNN not fake news.

CNN is not fake news. RT is fake news.

In this particular case CNN is definitely Fake News and RT is Accurate News

The RT video you posted was extremely inaccurate. There were many instances of hyperbole as well as unsubstantiated claims.

For the objective reader, i recommend to watch the video. Pause after each sentence and ask yourself, "wait, is that true?"

You did not answer with "yes blah blah blah," and that therefore proves my point.

Well, yeah, CNN part of that was inaccurate, hence this thread and RT video in the first place

What point? I answered your question just fine.

What tipped me off to the CNN is fake news thing was then Trump was running as a candidate and said his infamous "their not sending their best... their rapists... and some I assume are good people" line. CNN didn't address that for what it said and his obvious intent of it. He was talking about illegal immigrants crossing the border, and called them criminals, rapists, etc. He was wrong when he said that and should have been called out for it. Illegal immigrants to the US from Mexico actually have lower crime rates than naturally born citizens of the US.

But that isn't where CNN went with this. Instead CNN and most other media spun it as if he had said Mexicans in general are criminals, rapists, bad hombres, etc. I've been keeping an eye on them since and they've repeated this sort of lazy reporting / spin to match their narrative again and again and not just with him.

I now put CNN just a few rungs below Fox in the fake news category. US news in general is pretty bad. Your best source for news on US events will usually be a foreign news source, like BBC or CBC etc, as they are less likely to have a reason to be biased.
