CNN Links to Own 2017 Report Disproving Charlottesville Hoax; ‘Very Fine People’ Referred to Statue

Talk about sleazy reporting at CNN . . .

"CNN failed to correct, retract, or apologize for its repeated false reports in recent weeks that President Donald Trump had referred to neo-Nazis as “very fine people” in his remarks about the Charlottesville, Virginia, riot in 2017.

But on Tuesday, CNN linked to its own report at the time that reported, accurately, that Trump had used “very fine people” to refer to protesters for and against the removal of a historic statue, not to neo-Nazis."

Based on this one false CNN report, probably 40% of the country is convinced that Trump is racist.

Some people may have been confused but I always had the impression he was referring to the protesters and not to nazis. "Either side" seemed pretty obvious.
