CNN wont disavow its own debunked fake news
Why CNN is standing by a Michael Cohen story that his lawyer calls false

Lanny Davis, who has been engaged in high-stakes crisis management and political lawyering for decades, says he made a mistake.

CNN, which relied on Davis at least in part for a story he now says is false, won't say it made a mistake.

And the contretemps contains a revealing look at the sausage-making of investigative reporting and the sometimes murky dance between reporters and their unnamed sources.

Would putting you on ignore work as well?

Why put Tom on ignore when you can simply have him try to explain what an insurance deductible is. That worked out so well.

They know they can plausibly hide behind their "anonymous source", and it will please and give hope to their tiny core readership.

Lanny Davis originally lied about being the anonymous source source for the fake CNN story. Now he admits he lied about that too.
