Trump raps the network all the time for fake news. But after being caught lying now 8,600 times and counting since taking office, don't you think he has brought a lot of the bad coverage on himself? It's disgraceful that we have a President who is a liar. Clearly, Don Lemon should not be at CNN. However, there are good hosts at CNN whom, I believe, to be fair. Wolf Blitzer has been at the network forever, and no one has ever accused him of being biased. Erin Burnett is a great host after in the evening coming over from CNBC, when she used to cover the markets on "Squawk Box" with the late Mark Haines, who was also great. I watched them all the time. Burnett is smart, witty and can hold her own in interviewing top government officials to take them to account. No wonder why Trump hates CNN so much. As a country we are better off for having CNN with its critical reporting and emphasis on transparency than without them. I don't mind Jake Tapper being critical either on his show. Plus, CNN's international reporting is better than anywhere else as far as U.S. networks go. We should be thankful that CNN is still around in the age of Trump and his misinformation.
