      "You've been talking about the tweet for days! Now what about this other stuff???"

        I suspect taht when the president starts tweeting about the news, the media will cover it.  You can't expect them, or anyone else just say "ha Ha, that was a great joke!" , now let's talk about health care, when Trump fills his twitter feed with this crap.

          Hmmm, the first 30 seconds shows a clear agenda against Trump, trying to link Trump to a hate group/person.

            You are probably right. I think CNN is over-reacting.  I personally feel Trump thought it was clever and re-tweeted it.  But imagine if he accompanied the tweet with a statement like, "In the old days, this what I would have done, but now as President I have to protect the freedom of the press and the first amendment, even if I disagree with their coverage."  There would have been no way to criticize him.  The joke would have been mildly self-deprecating, but still would have gotten its point across.  But, I fear Trump is a stranger to nuance.

              Have no fear! Trump is here! I'm glad to hear you say CNN is over-reacting and be critical of your favorite liar network! It's a step in the right direction. They shouldn't cover a tweet non-stop for days. They should be talking about issues and news. I'm so glad we agree. Yay, a step in the right direction.

                Now we'll see if the President can stick to the real issues.  BTW, I can be critical of an institution and still trust it overall. But CNN, more than  any other outlet, was bound to overreact.  They were the ones getting punched.

                    I agree.  Someone found it, showed it to Trump and he re-Tweeted it.

                    That is the problem I have with CNN.  For the last 15 - 20 years, they have gone from being unbiased and just reporting the news, to being the mouthpiece of the DNC and SJWs.

                    If it's a liberal doing it, they over reach and declare it's done for the very best of reasons and make it sound like it's the greatest thing since sliced bread.    Take the exact same thing and have a conservative do it, they over reach and declare that it's based solely on evil intent and that it's shit on a stick.

                      I think painting any particular outlet with a broad brush is overreach.  Then you get to dismiss out of hand, anything published by them as fake news.  Even if there is bias in the way they present it, the facts are almost always true, and when they are not, they correct it.  You also need to distinguish between the reporting of the news and commentary on the news.  Trump has conflated the two.

                        CNN has no credibility. You are telling Raph that he needs to distinguish between news and commentary, yet you attack me for posting Natasha and Diamond and Silk and act like I'm trying to present them as the Oxford Dictionary, when it was obviously just commentary. You are the one who doesn't get it.
