CNN Mocks Melania's Intelligence - She Doesn't Know Meaning of Being First Lady
Melania Trump speaks four or five languages fluently.
She was a model.
She’s lived the American dream 100-times over.
None of that is good enough for a CNN writer.
Kate Andersen Brower argues Melania “doesn’t understand what it means to be first lady.”
CNN’s Kate Andersen Brower criticized First Lady Melania Trump on Thursday over her complaints against the media.
“In a rare interview Wednesday night Melania Trump proved that she doesn’t understand what it means to be first lady,” Brower wrote in her opening salvo. She derided Melania Trump’s emphasis on “comedians to journalists to performers, book writers” as her greatest challenge, despite noting similar complaints from former first ladies — most notably, Michelle Obama.
“There are prisonlike elements, but it’s a really nice prison,” Obama said of the White House at a 2013 summit in Africa. “You can’t complain.” Obama explained that “people are sorting through our shoes and our hair … whether we cut it or not.”
CNN’s Chris Cuomo appeared to call out fellow CNN host Don Lemon, a vehement anti-Trump critic.
The reason?
Lemon says if he was Barack Obama he wouldn’t have shaken President Trump’s hand at George H.W. Bush’s funeral.
Cuomo: “You’re petty and small.“
Lemon: “I’m not petty and small. That’s real, brother. That’s real.“
Cuomo: “Real petty and small.“

Are pigs flying somewhere??
Fun fact: did you know Cuomo’s brother is New York Governor Andrew Cuomo? Look it up.
You need 2,000 people to conduct an accurate poll. According to 2,206 adults, one “journalist” stands out as the most distrusted.
He works for CNN.
Any guesses?
A Morning Consult poll shows CNN’s Jake Tapper is the most mistrusted journalist in America.
The poll surveyed 2,206 adults, has a margin of error of plus or minus two percent, and asked a number of questions about the news media in general and 50 specific American media personalities specifically.
When asked “How much do you trust the following” media personality, 35 percent said of Tapper “not much” or “not at all.” This high level of mistrust for Tapper placed the left-wing CNN anchor in tenth place on a list of the most mistrusted media personalities.
Larry King worked for CNN for a very long time.
In a recent interview, he admitted what a lot of people have figured for a good while now.
According to Larry, CNN “stopped doing news a long time ago.”
Partial transcript:
HOST RICK SANCHEZ: You know it’s interesting. As I listen to you I’m thinking that both you and I are old enough to remember that there was a lot of antagonism during the 1960s. There was a lot of antagonism during Watergate. There was certainly antagonism during the Clinton years. But there is something, maybe it’s an undercurrent, that is different now. Can you put your finger on it? What is it?
KING: Two things, Rick — the internet and cable news. Could you imagine cable news in Watergate? And they don’t do news anymore. In fact, RT is one of the few channels doing news. RT does news. CNN stopped doing news a long time ago. They do Trump. Fox is Trump TV and MSNBC is anti-Trump all the time. You don’t see a story — there was vicious winds and storms in the Northeast the other day – not covered on any of the three cable networks, not covered. Not covered! So when CNN started covering Trump — they were the first — they covered every speech he made and then they made Trump the story. So, Trump is the story in America. I would bet that ninety-eight percent of all Americans mention his name at least once a day. And when it’s come to that, when you focus on one man, I know Donald 40 years — I know the good side of Donald and I know the bad side of Donald — I think he would like to be a dictator. I think he would love to be able to just run things. So, he causes a lot of this. Then his fight with the media and fake news. I’ve been in the media a long time, like you — longer than you, Rick. And at all my years at CNN, in my years at Mutual Radio, I have never seen a conversation where a producer said to a host “pitch the story this way. Angle it that way. Don’t tell the truth.” Never saw it. Never saw it.
SANCHEZ: You know it’s funny, just quick because you know these producers are telling me you guys have to start wrapping this up … you said something interesting about how CNN played along with Trump. I think they only played along or at least gave him that much airtime in many ways because they didn’t think he was going to win, correct?
KING: I guess it’s to their regret. But, they covered him as a character. They carried every speech he made. They carried him more than Fox News, at the beginning. And so they built the whole thing up and the Republicans had a lot of candidates and they all had weaknesses. When I saw Senator Cruz hug Donald Trump the other day I said, “this is what America has become.” He said that Cruz’s father helped kill Kennedy!
