Cameras were allowed at Tuesday’s White House press briefing and chaos ensued as the ripple effect of the CNN video and the healthcare bill



At one point during the briefing, Sarah Huckabee Sanders was asked about the recent CNN retraction regarding a story about Russia wherein three employees of the company ‘resigned’ following the retraction.

The line of questioning ended with, “Why isn’t the response [from CNN] good enough for the president?” Huckabee Sanders responded in kind:

“I don’t know that it’s that the response isn’t good enough for the President, I think it’s the constant barrage of fake news directed at this President, probably, that has garnered a lot of his frustration. You point to that report, there are multiple other instances where that outlet that you referenced has been repeatedly wrong and had to point that out or be corrected . . .”

Huckabee Sanders then brought up the recent video released by Project Veritas that shows a prominent CNN producer admitting that the Russia-Trump story is “bullsh*t”:

“There’s a video circulating now, whether it’s accurate or not – I don’t know – but I would encourage everyone in this room, and frankly, everyone across the country to take a look at it. I think if it is accurate, I think it’s a disgrace to all of media, to all of journalism, I think that we have gone to a place where if the media can’t be trusted to report the news, then that’s a dangerous place for America. And I think that if that’s the place certain outlets are going, particularly for the purpose of spiking ratings and if that’s coming directly from the top, I think that’s even more scary and certainly more disgraceful.”
