Even liberal Politico finds untenable CNN's refusal to correct their July 26 "scoop" fed to them by Michael Cohen's lawyer Lanny Davis that President Donald Trump knew in advance about the Trump Tower meeting that included his son and a Russian lawyer, which was subsequently denied by Davis' August 22 admission that he did not know if this was true.

Politico writer Jason Schwartz also wondered if Davis can continue to appear on network news shows due his part in knowingly spreading what CNN stubbornly refuses to correct despite the fact that they initiated this fraud on August 29 in "Lanny Davis burns reporters. Should they still give him a megaphone?":

CNN is sticking by their FAKE NEWS story.

CNN Communications ‏ Verified account @CNNPR Replying to @realDonaldTrump @carlbernstein "Make no mistake, Mr. President, CNN does not lie. We report the news. And we report when people in power tell lies. CNN stands by our reporting and our reporters. There may be many fools in this story but @carlbernstein is not one of them".

“CNN is sticking by their FAKE NEWS story.”

They have to. If they don’t, Bernstein’s credibility is in question, maybe even shattered. If he is lying about this, what else has he lied about — going back to the early ‘70s? And if he lied about that, then they “won’t have Nixon to kick around any more”.
