Is he unapologizing now?
Much ado about nothing.
CNN comes out and clears CNN...
But, somebody will be along shortly to post the tweet by Steve King that told Cruz people and, by extension, every caucii in the state that Carson was dropping out and to not waste their vote.
I always turn to CNN to get to the truth of a matter.
NOT.
When you are trying to create a tempest in a teapot, parsing doesn’t matter.
It would take a remarkably stupid person to stop following one candidate and follow another over a rumor.
Huh... Maybe they would have voted for trump after all.
#trumpertantrum
And the world's richest moron is threatening a lawsuit over it?
At least Ted didn’t use eminent domain to kick Carson and his voters out of Iowa. People who use eminent domain are nasty.
Hurting Ben Carson’s Campaign
Guest: Karl Rove
A reporting error by CNN the other day may have hurt Dr. Ben Carson’s Iowa caucus showing. CNN mistakenly tweeted that Carson had dropped out of the presidential race on the same day of the caucus. How could something like this have happened? Talking Points will explain and Karl Rove will react.

Jake Tapper on Twitter:
Sounds less like a case of lying than a case of assuming... and we all know what assuming does.
Says ... CNN.
Perhaps Cruz did wrong perhaps not but Carson should have gotten out anyway. Along with the rest of these guys who are stumbling along. Numbers in the single digits.
This is absolutely horrible!
I am going to get on the phone and dial whine 1 1.
CNN conveniently leaves out the other tweets by Moody. If you think CNN is deceptive now, just wait until the general begins.
Cruz's campaign initially alerted its folks using words very similar to CNN's. That makes the quoted assertion an abject lie.
People, look at the specific words, not the MSM spin.
The only person who should be at risk here is the individual who "confirmed" that Carson was out (and I cannot at this point confirm he is with the Cruz campaign). This is a media manufactured crisis.
Why millions of Americans hate you and the main stream media.
You take a story (scoop) of a candidate "taking a break" and you know by reporting a non-event that YOU are making an allusive or oblique remark, at a minimum being suggestive that Carson is dropping out, and then like a little child sit there and say . . . don't blame me, its not my fault, I did not say that. If its not important, then why did you say anything at all?
Grow up and man up for once in your life. Oh I forgot. Too late for you to man up.
Just now heard on Levin’s show, CNN live making the “breaking news” report about Carson then interview each other about “what that means for his campaign!”
