journalists. >> but can he -- can the president be held accountable for what somebody else did in that regard? >> the president can be held accountable for what he says and he should be held accountable for what he says. i think the president talks about fake news and the person calling um cnn to issue a threat uses the phrase fake news, it's not impossible to figure out where this person got that idea in their head so i don't think the president is necessarily legally liable. we can hold the president accountable for what he said. >> not the first time threats against cnn or against his personnel. the other thing we should point out the cameras. that wasn't up to the president. that was up to the organization hosting the event last night and that has been their tradition. we have seen actually some events recently where the president has invited the cameras in at some of these negotiations with members of congress that is quite surprising so i put that out there. who wrote his lines?
