Three CNN journalists have resigned following the network’s retraction of their story that alleged a link between a Russian investment fund and an ally of President Trump.
Reporter Thomas Frank, editor Eric Lichtblau and Lex Haris, the executive editor for CNN’s investigative unit, all left the company over the article, which was published on CNN.com Thursday but removed a day later after the network concluded that it did not meet its editorial standards.
“In the aftermath of the retraction of a story published on CNN.com, CNN has accepted the resignations of the employees involved in the story’s publication,” a spokesman said Monday evening.
Citing a single anonymous source, the piece had claimed that Congress was probing a “Russian investment fund with ties to Trump officials.”
Because pres. Trump is not using his power to silenced this abusive media. They become arrogant and act as though they can’t be stopped. Technically they can be arrested
for sowing false news and did information. Yes there is freedom of speech the right way but not publishing garbage and polluted news.
I think the exposure of them is much more powerful than arresting them. It exposes them totally to the public who can’t help but see they are fake.
It seems that CNN has been LYING a lot lately! They are SUPPOSED to be giving us NEWS, instead it’s all NEWZ these days – and that just don’t cut it! I’ll get my NEWS elsewhere, thankyewverymuch!
Isn’t it amazing about what President Trump said about FAKE NEWS.
Especially CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, it has caught up with their feigning
the news. It is a sad day in America.
