CNN’s Chief Tries To Bite Back At President

Insinuating that the new President is going to regret picking a fight with a mighty news outlet like CNN, Jeff Zucker threatened that his network would say bad thinks about Donald Trump in other capitals of the world.  “Continuing to have an adversarial relationship with that network is a mistake,” said Zucker.

I wonder how CNN is going to like the new FCC?

  1. The arrogance of CNN believing they are going to shape and control the Trump admin and how people perceive America’s POTUS. So they are going to continue to publish fake hit news pieces all over the world. How has that worked out so far for their reputation, viewership numbers, etc.

  2. Not in favor of a ban. 1st amendment guarantees free press. On the other hand, CNN has already rendered themselves irrelevant and if Trump chooses to use them as a whipping boy and publicly humiliate them I’ll enjoy it immensely

  3. CNN operates on the American taxpayers’ airwaves and is licensed under the FCC. If it can be determined (easily, though congressional or senate oversight committee) that Zucker or his agents (employees) did, in fact, utter this threat and vowed to report fake news in order to undermine the authority or the effectiveness of the U.S. government or to incite domestic civil unrest, the FCC can not only cancel their license but impose fines and other applicable punishment. Sounds like militarizing the gov’t to you? Not at all. The media will have to learn the hard way that along with special rights (which the press does enjoy in this country), there are concomitant responsibilities and foremost among them are to report the truth and that doesn’t mean to game the system by reporting fake news and then “retracting” it at the bottom of page 9 in small print.

  4. They’re going to speak ill of him regardless if he makes nice or bites back, so why even bother feigning niceness to them?
    Every time I see a picture of Zucker I can see its caption saying, “Mom, the Italian kids chased me home again–make them stop..”

  5. @Govlawyer “Every time I see a picture of Zucker I can see its caption saying, “Mom, the Italian kids chased me home again–make them stop..”

    Now I’m gonna giggle every time I see that sob. Tanks;)

  6. Poor Jeff need some therapy. If he thinks his position at CNN gives you more power than the President of the United States, he is in for a very, very, rude awakening.

  7. CNN threatens to damage Trump?

    Ha. I bet the President is trembling in his boots.

    When are the libs and bullies going to realize that attacking the President is attacking WE THE PEOPLE.

    Crawl away, CNN. Who needs you?

  8. Ahh, liberals. They think hitting the gas is always the answer – “We’ll just double down – again!”

    This could be the scene where the engine and propeller pull out from the front of the plane from how hard it’s trying to go straight up and it all crashes gloriously in a yuge fireball.

    CNN’s tailspin is just starting.

  9. All Trump supporters, ALL TRUMP SUPPORTERS, should notify their cable tv providers that they will cut their cable if cable doesn’t drop CNN now.

    It’s the clearly indicated action to take.

  10. The FCC and FTC have immense power regarding content of sold goods and issuing/retracting licenses. Under the new Administration of President Trump, these people will awaken to the facts that they are put out of commission due to violations of their licenses. Drain the Swamp with CNN gone first, others to follow. Tell the truth in your news, don’t invent facts, don’t bend to fit your “model”, and all will be fine.

  11. Excellent link, Mighty Mojo

    Quite a bit to look at there. As for the main dais action, It’s worth checking out and getting a smile or two. The rest is a world of where’s Waldo.

    The most comical is Carter in a trench coat looking like a cartoon character, funny face and all. I’m thinking Mr Magoo.

    Michie is smirk/frowning disapproval – what else would you expect?

    Right behind her is the Clinton mafia heads, both staring right at Trump as he’s gesticulating during his speech. You can see the pain and anger in their faces, especially Ma’s. You know she’s thinking: “THAT SHOULD BE ME!!”

    Bush II is sitting to the left of Ma Clinton, along with Laura. He looks like he sees something shiny off in the distance. He’s kind of there.

    On the same row, on Michie’s left, our right of her, there seem to be two black SS men seated. They’re both eyeballing someone to their right across the aisle. I can’t tell if they’re checking out skirt or threat. One of them definitely looks lustful.

    Then there’s all the detail everywhere else…
