CNN issues correction after Comey statement contradicts reporting
The Hill ^ | June 7, 2017

Posted on 06/08/2017 12:07:26 AM PDT by SMGFan

CNN has corrected a Tuesday report after the release of former FBI Director James Comey's opening statement for his Thursday testimony in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee contradicted the reports' sources.

The CNN report said Comey was expected to dispute President Trump's claims that Comey said he was not under investigation on multiple occasions.

The report, titled “Comey expected to refute Trump," was based on unnamed sources and said Comey's conversations with the president "were much more nuanced," and that Trump drew the wrong conclusion.

Trump played the Comey tapes to the intelligence committee members he had in for dinner.

:-) Check mate bitches. Zero G 4D Chess is such a fun game...

Major CYA going on. He big dogged them and growled. They peed. Trump is the Alpha. Expect legislation to start passing.

Comey knew that Trump had tapes as soon as he read...."three times" at twitter....

Where have I heard that before. IIRC, Trump was a really good base ball player.

I'm still trying to get past the fact that Comey discussed his meetings with everyone and his brother at the FBI...and who knows where else and who else.

The guy is paranoid.

Can’t help wondering if “Unnamed Sources” isn’t the new name for Journal-List.

So tell us who the dishonest “unnamed source” is, so that we can discount his future statements. CNN is a supposed news organization. Just give us the facts.

I’ve read that DJT was headed for the major leagues, and being courted by them. He decided to go into real estate instead.
