I don't know what to make of this.

It reads like someone who hates the president very much was ordered to write a piece softening this latest outrage. In the process, he points out that the president is exactly this malicious all the time, that it's completely in character for him to say a thing like this and apparently to mean it, and that his fans cheered the idea of thousands or millions of Americans being killed by a foreign power. A light edit of the headline and the article could change the point its making completely.

Maybe the article doesn't matter. Sure, I know we all read the article before reacting, of course we do. But how many people read the whole article these days? Maybe the headline and the outlet together ("CNN is saying...") are the real payload.

    Remember, according to so many unhinged right wingers and reactionary centrists, CNN is supposed to be part of the radically left wing media.

    Well, they were not all that liberal to begin with, but yeah, it's likely to get worse.

    I sure hope someone with deep pockets comes along and builds an actual liberal news network that is impervious to threats from the FCC and shitheads like donnie.

    Also, something that is not subject to whims of megacorps and companies that advertise on it.

    We sure could use one.

    I’m so tempted to email this to a friend. She’s overwhelmed about the whole situation and is purposely living under a rock, and still says that both sides are equal. She lives in LA though, and I wonder what will break the camels back.
