CNN's Zucker slams White House rhetoric towards media after bomb threat (Hmmm)

CNN’s President Jeff Zucker blamed President Trump and White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders for the series of bomb threats that surfaced on Wednesday.

“There is a total and complete lack of understanding at the White House about the seriousness of their continued attacks on the media,” Mr. Zucker said in a statement.

“The President, and especially the White House Press Secretary, should understand their words matter. Thus far, they have shown no comprehension of that,” he continued.

Both the president and Mrs. Sanders condemned the attempted attacks.

“We’re extremely angry, upset, unhappy about what we witnessed this morning,” Mr. Trump said Wednesday afternoon. “We will get to the bottom of it.”

CNN’s headquarters in the Time Warner building was evacuated in the middle of live coverage Wednesday morning when NYPD discovered what appeared to be a “live device.” An envelope with white powder was also found at the scene.

I guess the email went to multiple recipients on how to spin this.

Or was Nellie Ohr on her shortwave “hobby” radio again?

Did he ever say anything about Steve Scalise, or Republicans who were mailed white powder?

The funny thing about Zucker's conclusion here is CNN is the only member of the media that received a bomb.

And what about the non-media recipients? Soros, Obama, Clinton, Wasserman-Schultz, Mad-Maxine?

They're not media.

Sorry ... I don't know how to shrink it.

I copied and pasted the address from a FB post to me.

But ... OK ... I guess it IS a loud call to wake up.

I don’t call the CNN chief, “Zucker”, I call him “F***er,” because that’s what he is:

Dear “F***er: Stop producing Fake News. Make an ATTEMPT to actually report the news instead of making up news and attacking Trump 5,270,504 times per day.

By the way, I totally agree with President Trump when he says, of all the Fake News, CNN is the fakest. LMAO!!!!

Clinton just said no room for civility until they win, Mad-Maxine repeatedly calls for conservatives to be harasses in public and driven out of public places, Obama is the ring leader, Holder wants to kick us.

We could go on and on and on. CNN, MSNBC, spare us the outrage.

Too bad the FBI is biased. We’ll never know the truth.

It wasn't even directed to CNN.

It was meant for John Brennan.
