TRUMP: Wasn’t disparaging

I confess to being a news junky. I’ll watch CNN and Fox, comparing how they cover the same story of the day.

Two times recently, writers have made the statement in the Coeur d’Alene Press that President Trump made disparaging remarks about Americans who fought and died during the first World War. This story was given to the media outlets by an anonymous source. Both CNN and Fox shared the story with us.

After an investigation, questioning all 27 people that were with the president at the time of the so-called remarks, it turns out that none of them heard him say this. Obviously this was a fabricated story.

Fox corrected the lie but CNN, as far as I can tell, never has. Obviously, according to letters to the editor, there are at least two local people who missed the correction, maybe more.
