KOMMONSENTSJANE – JAKE TAPPER AND FAKE NEWS

Wake up Tapper!  You owe Kellyanne Conway an apology.

It looks like Jake Tapper is not in on the latest news where a whistle blower has proved that CNN publishes “fake” news. In fact is paid by different countries to do exactly that.

KOMMONSENTSJANE – CNN REPORTER SAYS GOVERNMENTS PAY THEM TO PRODUCE FAKE NEWS STORIES

CNN Reporter says Governments Pays Them to Produce Fake News Stories
CNN Center in Atlanta on August 10, 2014. The CNN Center is the world headquarters of CNN.

Have you ever heard the term, “barely scratch the surfaces?”

Former CNN reporter, Amber Lyon blows the lid off the network—exposes that governments around the world pay CNN to write fake news stories.

Amber is a three-time Emmy award winning journalist who has reported on news from across the world. When CNN refused to air a segment she wrote and produced on the Arab Spring in Bahrain—a violent uprising against an oppressive government in the Middle Eastern nation—Amber was surprised.

When she started to dig into the reasons behind why CNN would not air this news story she uncovered shocking facts about the network and the Obama administration. Amber found that CNN is routinely paid by the U.S. government and other foreign governments to selectively report and air news stories on events from around the world.

In the video clip below Amber explains that she found out Bahrain’s government paid CNN not to report on the violent incident. The country did not want it getting out that peaceful demonstrators were shot en masse. And that citizens reported they were brutally tortured by the regime and family members were abducted or disappeared.

CNN tried to keep Amber quiet, but she felt a moral obligation to the American people to expose the network and the Obama administration for their role.

Amber is now trying to get the real story out of what is going on in the liberal media. Corruption in the liberal media is never surprising, but it should always be acknowledged and remembered.

Tapper, Conway have heated exchanges in tense interview

CNN anchor Jake Tapper and President Trump’s counselor Kellyanne Conway went toe-to-toe in a 25-minute long interview on Tuesday that was punctuated by several heated exchanges over the accuracy of statements the president has made and the media’s treatment of Trump.

The tense interview comes after CNN says it declined to have Conway on Tapper’s Sunday show “State of the Union” because of concerns over her credibility.

White House spokesman Sean Spicer said Tuesday that CNN had retracted its statement, but the network fired back, saying it stood by its concerns about Conway.

Tapper and Conway did not broach that conflict, but touched on several other dust-ups between the media and the Trump administration that have colored the first few weeks of Trump’s presidency.

Tapper repeatedly sought to hold Conway accountable for the Trump administration dismissing press reports it doesn’t like as fake news.

He noted that Conway has had to apologize for claiming that a massacre took place in Bowling Green, Ky., when in fact it was merely the spot where a couple of would-be terrorists were arrested for hatching a scheme.

“It is difficult to hear criticism from the White House, which has such little regard day in, day out, for facts, for truth and who calls us fake news for stories that they don’t like,” Tapper said.

Conway kept her composure and repeatedly sought to offer an “olive branch” to CNN and other media outlets that have been butting heads with Trump and his aides ever since the campaign.

But she also vented frustration with the coverage the White House gets, insisting it is always negative and that the “palace intrigue” stories about the power dynamics within the administration are almost always false.

“Think about how small our staff was and how small our budget was for a presidential campaign, Jake, that succeeded and saw things other people didn’t see,” Conway said. “We breathe each other’s oxygen in the fox hole. We are all very close. All the stories for a White House that is constant action, constant movement – they’re just not true.”

Tapper asked Conway directly if she believes CNN is “fake news.”

“I don’t think CNN is fake news,” she responded. “I think there are some reports everywhere, in print, on TV, on radio, in conversation that are not well researched and are sometimes based on falseness and are actually hurtful.”

Tapper also ripped Trump for claiming that the news media has failed to cover international terrorist attacks because it harbors a secret agenda, arguing that CNN has reporters active in terror hotspots around the world putting their lives at risk to report on those incidents.

“He was saying the media does not cover these stories because we don’t want to cover them because we have some sort of agenda,” Tapper said. “That’s what he was suggesting and it’s offensive given the fact that CNN and other media organizations have reporters in danger right now in war zones covering ISIS. And I just don’t understand how the president can make an attack like that.”

Conway acknowledged CNN’s coverage of several high-profile terror attacks, but argued that the media remains obsessed with covering Trump as if the election is still going on and that it could do a better job of framing the threat of radical Islam.

“There seems to be some coverage these days, maybe not here, but definitely elsewhere that somehow terrorism is not a big problem, or somehow national security is all taken care of and that’s just not true,” Conway said. “I think when you’re talking about extreme vetting, he is making the point that that is in response to the threat of terrorism globally.”
