Testimony Cnn News Today

Revival of american exceptionalism. i was impressed with his speech in poland. he was asked a specific question he chose to answer. cnn is doing this to themselves. they are in an all-out war. i dont care if it was on foreign soil. howie: the president can choose to deflect a question if he doesnt want that to consume a lot of oxygen and keep the focus on other foreign policies. mo: im not one who believes the media is immune from criticism. i think the media has made a lot of mistakes as someon...

They question so much about this president. howie: i see it every day on the air, in print and on the web. kellyanne: if we are showing disrespect to the office of the presidency, then that is disrespectful towards our nation. its not unpatriotic to question a presidents position on issues or actions as president, even though all of that seems ideologically charged. so peoples speaking fees and readings go up for a lot of clicks. but it does seem to cross the line when the questions are personal...

About president obama ripping the press in a foreign country. ed: he was asked a question and he answered it. how many stories cnn is retracting or running from, people resigning. maybe there was a calmer point in american politics where presidents didnt beat up on the media this much. i remember when i was overseas with bush 43 and president obama and mayors didnt go over there to the g-20 summit to give earn alternative view of whats going on, making it seem like hes i am a thiegs with these r...

President standing next to a leader of the free world who murders journalists. my bigger issue is this continued escalation of trust -- escalation of an assault on trust in the media. but the president standing at this venue escalating that. criticize, but turn down the temperature a little bit. howie: after this news conference he had this to say about the news conference itself. >> for the president to go off on cnn as fake news made this entire spectacle seem like a fake news conference. this...

Led to a new round of media bark on foreign soil. >> since you started the whole wrestling video thing. what are your thoughts on what happened after. cnn went after you and threatened to expose the person who did it. >> cnn is bad and nbc despite the fact i made them a fortune on the "apprentice." i think cnn has hurt themselves very badly and has taken it too far. howie: meghan mccain co-host of "outnumbered," ed henry, and mo elleithee. is there something unseemly

Interference itself was a question. >> the president of the united states is saying my people are concerned about this, what can you tell us. it seems idiotic. >> it was a high stakes meeting and i think donald trump made the country proud. howie: a "new york times" columnist compares twitter to porn. im howard kurtz and this is "mediabuzz." president trump escalating his attacks here and home and overseas. i sat down with kellyanne conway. the president criticized cnn and nbc in poland in respo...

Howie: the buildup for president trumps sit-down with vladimir putin, our journalists reduced to sifting through the information from both sides because we dont know what actually happened. ed: there is an example of these gifts and photos on the internet where cnn before the meeting was pounding this narrative, donald trump is not going to raise election meddling with vladimir putin. then he raised it. it will be debate, did he raise it hard enough? but it reminded me before the james comey tes...

Are saying the media is doing? distracting from them? kellyanne: every single days helping people. the stock market loves his presidency. the stock market is up. isis is on the run. you have got unemployment among teenagers and african-americans is down for the first time in quite a while. you have got hold builder confidence. manufacturer confidence. where are the stories? why arent the media telling america that the presidents views on healthcare are important because healthcare has failed. it...

His best since he has become president. howie: thats true. kellyanne: why didnt jim acosta say that. howie: some would say his criticism of cnn and nbc detracted from it. kellyanne: im here for the country. howie: in the runup with the meeting with vladimir putin. the biggest issue was, was president trump going to bring you be russian interference and hacking in the election. kellyanne: the media were saying that should be a topic of conversation. i heard that 50 times for every one time people...

One of them had been there for 15 years, for going with a story thats journalists admitted to me was thinly sourced. but do we have objective standard anymore? you read the "new york times" article during the campaign. donald trump just compels responsible reporters to suspend these objective standards. you have got -- his opinion, but many followed suit. the a.p., "washington post," cnn and washington times had to recall or retract stories. everyone makes mistakes. but everybody makes mistakes....
