I don’t really understand this threat. When did CNN treat a Republican fairly, or attempt to make a Republican look good? You can’t threaten, when there is no upside. So he is saying, Trump can either help CNN criticize him around the world, or they will do it without his help? Sounds like a tough call.

“The only station.....” All the more reason to eliminate CNN from the briefing room. Why in God’s name would a sane President provide a press agency access when the sole mission of said agency was to fabricate negative propaganda against that President?

They shouldn’t be shaping perception. They should be reporting reporting what is happening around the world.

What he has also done is confirmed what we already know: They see their jobs as ‘shaping’ the news, not reporting it.

I'd love to see Trump change the rules for press briefings given by Spicer and press conferences he personally gives.All such events would become like silent auctions.Everyone would have a large ID thing around their neck so they can be easily identified.Reporters would silently raise their hands if they wished to ask a question and would be called upon in an orderly fashion.There'd be no "follow up" questions and *no* shouting.

Civilized...orderly.

And yes,Helen Thomas's skeletal remains would still get to ask the first question...if she raised her hand as required.

If President Trump allows CNN in the pool or in the White House press room, that will show weakness. Boot them.

Trumpster should tell the NSA to just block their signals.

Not until Congress declares war officially.


Screw Congress, We, The People, the 67% of the honest vote that voted for President Trump have declared war on Fake News.

Maybe the FEC needs to do a Complete and Thorough Investigation into ILLEGAL IN-KIND CONTRIBUTIONS regarding CNN and the Clinton campaign.

We know from Wikileaks they COLLUDED and ENGINEERED “NEWS” and stories to BENEFIT CLINTON.

There is More than enough evide3nce to PUT THEM IN PRISON and SHUT THEM DOWN FOREVER!!!

The perception of Donald Trump in capitals around the world is shaped, in many ways, by CNN.

That’s right and you guys are liars.

You push an agenda and point of view that goes beyond shading the truth.

I was shocked when your network used “Breaking News” to push the hoax by 4chann.

You used phrases similar to “The Top Intelligence Officials”, “It has been shared with the Top chairs of Intelligence Commitee”, etc.

The story sounded preposterous and stupid from the start but, you insisted your craptastic byline should have someone with authority and independence to give the story weight and trotted out, a really old man and 9nly one half of the team who broke Watergate, in the ghost of Bernstein.

You should be held criminally liable for taking him out of his rest home and embarrassing him in front of the world, as he will never be listened to again. (Sarcasm morons)

CNN is a joke....

So Jeff Zucker sees himself as the leader of an international alliance designed to oppose the United States?

Interesting.

Even more interesting is that he doesn’t seem to understand that the Internet means that the people in all those other countries can switch off CNN and get real news elsewhere, too.

Does CNN really think people in those countries have no other means of news?

He can forget that crap. Makes no difference if Donald Trump calls CNN “fake news” because all of US already knows CNN IS FAKE NEWS!

And we tell people about it every single day, without guidance from DC and NY.
