This is from 2015.

However it shows ALL networks to report more false claims than should be allowed on something considered news.

1st Amendment protects their right to publish fake news.
The shame is that the leftist, having taken over the educations, have created a whole generation of imbeciles that would not know the truth if they saw it with their own eyes.
Good thing there has been private education and home schooling so that not all are dupes.

The first article that was last updated in May, does say he was directed NOT to include certain meetings or contacts.

The second article does not correct the first in anyway that the first article did not do itself way back in may. Originally Posted by grean

Makes it pretty clear that CNN was alluding to Sessions hiding contact with the Russians.


The first article went on to say.

{"A legal expert who regularly assists officials in filling out the form disagrees with the Justice Department's explanation, suggesting that Sessions should have disclosed the meetings.

"My interpretation is that a member of Congress would still have to reveal the appropriate foreign government contacts notwithstanding it was on official business," said Mark Zaid, a Washington attorney who specializes in national security law.

Zaid added that in a similar circumstance he advised a member of Congress to list all foreign contacts -- including those made during official US government business."}

But as is often the case with the MSM it was all bullshit. I think they have gotten the major facts wrong on like 5 articles in the last week or so. One fake story caused the market to plummet and the reporter to be put on unpaid leave.

The second article, 12/11/17 disputes the claims of their legal expert from the first article. 5/25/17

"The FBI email from March bolsters the explanation by the Justice Department for why Sessions didn't disclose contacts with the Russian ambassador in his application for a US security clearance"

The second head line


{"FBI email: Sessions wasn't required to disclose foreign contacts for security clearance"}

Well if it isn't the turd that can't be flushed.
It's okay. I knew a piece of shit like you would show your peanuts and corn to the world. And being a piece of shit you lack the balls to make good on your "word". No big deal. Watching you trash yourself was worth it.
Douche-bag.

Now, where were we? I remember. You were reinforcing my point. Because you don't understand the difference between admitting a mistake and correcting it as opposed to claiming something is a lie and never proving it was a lie.
They made a mistake. They admitted it. They corrected it.
I can see why a douche-bag like you would think that was praise. Most people would call it an observation.

You think it was praise because you're stupid as well as being a twerp. You frequently turn tail and run, yelling fake news over your shoulder, and you never seem to show any proof to back up your claim. Your ball-less little pissant claim. The only balls you show are those cute little yellow ones in your posts that you use when your vocabulary fails you.
You've proven that you are ignorant of the concept of personal responsibility. I don't see you as having an epiphany at this point.

Now fuck off.
So you're praising CNN for correcting their fake news... while whining that we never provide examples of CNN's fake news?

Got it!

YOU. ARE. ONE. DUMB. SUMBITCH.

But it's ok, because sometimes when they get caught spreading fake news they apologize later.

Sounds reasonable....

A lie is a lie, whether caught and corrected or not. Funny how FAKE NEWS CNN only lies against Trumpy, never in his favor. If it only made "honest" mistakes, you would expect a more random distribution of errors, wouldn't you dickmuncher?

And thanks for reinforcing MY point - and your utter stupidity! You don't convince anyone that CNN isn't a purveyor of FAKE NEWS by pointing out examples of the FAKE NEWS it was forced to retract.

Now remove the dicks from your muncher long enough to take another swig of MD 20/20!
