If you think CNN is becoming unprofessional, watch FOX news. The thing is that he has no right to say such. Media has its freedom of speech, most especially when they are informing the people what is going on in the government. Trump is simply intimidating the media so that they can start praising him. But CNN has gone many years ahead of such trick.
Is just like saying that journalists are killed by politicians and we clap for politicians and say the journalists are talking too much.

Actually Fox news is more ideologically. balanced. their news segments are fair and balanced. but they have talk show hosts like Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity that are very conservative and highly opinionated in their shows. they also have people like megyn Kelly and Shepard Smith that are very liberal and anti Trump. compared to CNN and MSNBC which are disgusting Obama/Hillary praise singing organisations. they are more ideologically balanced.

That is not true. A member of her staff wanted to use it as a campaign weapon against Obama in 2007 but it was shot down and the staff was fired.

which still means her campaign started it. Did Hillary denounce it? No she instead posted pics of Obama in Muslim / Kenyan clothes. Hillary is a wolf in sheep skin. she knows what she is doing but covers her track so she can stay politically correct
BTW, I just googled. birtherism involved more than one person in the Clinton campaign. even Obama accused her of birtherism. Even NBC Chris Mathew accused her. but later on turned to blame Trump. Fake News is a cancer that needs to be rooted out

Its not the job of the press to be friendly to a candidate but to hold them accountable and no one had more flaws than Trump.

So I watched it before it got here and truth is it wasn't other news representatives that cheered but Trumps team in the audience..so please let's get that right.

In my opinion...it's not about weather He was right in this matter or not...it's the fact that America don enter "one chance" with this fellow. He comes with a lot of baggage and it will be interesting how He is manage in His first 90 days in office.

The Republicans ...the ones He calls the system have planted Mike pence on Him on purpose and I'm sure if they have to impeach him( in the interest of the Nation) , then you will have a more cultured Pence take over. There are other issues of conflict of interest as far as his businesses are concerned..
State security will be after him on many issues from day one.....and He will soon find out that abusing people, grabbing xxxxx..l, not paying His taxes, changing his story many times etc has consequences.

I am also tempted to think this guy is about to mirror the current Nigerian govt. He will continue to renege on promises, blame Obama's govt everyday, continue to abuse the media and will create a lot of troubles/enemity for America in the international circles.

Thankfully I'll be watching from Canada cheesy

It's funny how topics like this make the front page, but the news that has been everywhere for weeks, like how Putin had planned to blackmail Trump with videos of him sleeping with prostitutes and corporate bribery in order to influence his decisions don't. Things like Trump is the only US president to win an election but lose the popular vote so badly. Things like 73% of Americans actually think Trump will fail as a president. Things like Trump is trying to make Americans pay for his stupid wall.

Nigeria is the only country in the world with people who applaud Trump. The rest of the world is horrified and astonished by him. Mexico's president actually insulted him on twitter. China has been insulting him daily. The U.K. Ireland. Canada. EVERYWHERE. But you come to Nairaland and see idiots cheering. Why is Nigeria's own different? It's embarrassing.

Guy, nairaland is a microcosm of Nigeria.

Check this out..

There has never been evidence that Clinton or her campaign started the birther rumors,” said Ben Smith, editor in chief of BuzzFeed, who as a POLITICO reporter in 2011 linked the origin of the “birther” movement to a fringe politician in Illinois. Some hardcore Clinton backers circulated the rumors in 2008, but the campaign itself steered clear.

“As we reported, some of her supporters flirted with the idea in 2008 — but it has its origins in the fever swamps beginning in Illinois in 2004,” he said.

In fact, birtherism, as it’s been called, reportedly began with innuendo by serial Illinois political candidate Andy Martin, who painted Obama as a closet Muslim in 2004. That spiraled into a concerted effort by conspiracy theorists to raise doubts about Obama’s birthplace and religion — and essentially paint him as un-American.

Martin, who briefly launched a little-noticed presidential campaign last year, has disavowed the movement he’s often credited with starting, though he still foments similarly discredited doubts about Obama’s religion.

Clinton’s 2008 hands are recoiling at Trump’s revisionism about their role in propagating the lie about Obama’s citizenship. “The suggestion that the Hillary campaign was pushing birtherism in 2008 is bunk. It's fiction,” said Phil Singer, who was Clinton’s 2008 press secretary.

Much of the insinuation that Clinton had a hand in birtherism traces to the role of her then-senior strategist Mark Penn, who issued a memo in 2007 suggesting that Clinton emphasize Obama’s upbringing in Hawaii and Indonesia and paint him as fundamentally un-American. The memo never questioned Obama’s citizenship but did suggest highlighting his “lack of American roots.”

Trump diversity director: Obama birther questions 'not a race thing'
By NICK GASS
“[H]is roots to basic American values and culture are at best limited,” Penn wrote. “I cannot imagine electing a president during a time of war who is not at his center fundamentally American in his thinking and in his values.”

The Clinton campaign never employed Penn’s strategy, and to this day it provokes sharply different perceptions among those who remember discussing it. Two sources with knowledge of the deliberations say Penn’s memo caused a “near-staff revolt” at the time it came up and contributed to factional infighting that would later hobble the campaign.

If you watched CNN during the election period you'll understand where Trump is coming from. They were utterly biased! They didn't report independently as a news organization, they reported to spite Trump. It's was like a mission to destroy someone. Although Trump isn't a Saint either.

If you think CNN is biased then watch Fox News or listen to Fox Radio.

Nigerians watched the video and commented. They didnt know the genesis of this confrontation.

CNN leaked debate question to Hillary Clinton twice. CNN is a criminal news organization and should be treated as such by media regulators. But they won't, because of Politics.

We can all remember CNN played in wars in the past. The war in Iraq, the death of Ghadafi. Syria? There were large numbers of Assad supporters doing a counter protest before the war. CNN refused to cover them. CNN made it look as if the majority of Syria did not want Assad in Syria whereas the reverse was the case. Infact the majority supported Assad.

CNN always portraying Africa especially Nigeria as a Ghetto country. You will never see CNN going to Abuja or elite places like, Victoria Island Lekki, Ikeja to interview people. They always visit Oshodi and Mushin just to mock us. Whereas there are worse Ghetto in USA and China. Chicago, Baltimore has the worst Ghetto in than Nigeria.

Obama publicly mocked fox news.

We have also seen CNN also mocking fox, a better TV stations in terms of ratings and Market share. Donald Trump campaign alone has made Fox the most watched TV station on the planet because Americans don't Trust CNN. Even Liberals don't Trust CNN. Some Liberals even wrote CNN to stop their bias aagainst Trump as it was not helping Clinton. CNN was covering up for Clinton but attacking Trump. This made neutrally minded people to start questioning CNN. And that was why Hillary lost.

CNN will go to Trump campaign and refused to show the crowd. They will go to Hillary campaign and photoshop the few people into thousands. CNN is an unprofessional, criminal organization. Their days are numbered. Fox was not shy to show the massive crowd in Trump campaign. That alone gave Fox more ratings.

We have seen Obama discrediting Fox news times without numbers. He even held a close door meeting media outlets and bar Fox from entering.

I think Donald Trump should give CNN the same treatment.


You know the funny side to the whole mess? Donald Trump Campaign video streams has more viewers than CNN. CNN is losing it.

CNN is a definition of Journalism gone wrong.

My goodness! See rationale. So two wrongs now make a right? Wow! See secondary school mentality.
Is it the job of the president to start attacking the press? How about showing graciousness in victory? For goodness sakes, he is now the President of the entire country including those who never voted for him. He is supposed to be a uniter in chief and he is being petty as ever. Wow! shocked shocked
God help this country.

Everyone knows the news media in America is trash! CNN is the liberal propaganda tool catering to racial divide, homosexuals and other socialists views while Fox is conservative to the bone choosing to ignore anything race and instead focusing on religion, order and keeping the elites in charge. Trump is probably the best president America can ask for at this time, why?

1. One minute he's on the conservatives side the next he is liberal.

2. He's already RICH, he does not need the lobbyists.

3. As a businessman, he's going to implement policies aimed at reducing the disastrous 35% taxes on businesses in America. No other country in the world taxes above 25%.

It's been a long time America has had a president that was unpredictable, the last was Ronald Reagan and look what he did for the USA!

Hahaha, a guy who he is so thin skinned is going to be the best president America ever had? This is a man who is so petty and subject to emotional outburst its not even funny and you think this man is going to be a great President hahaha chei!

I am sorry to tell you but a leader should always be calm and collected especially during crisis he should be able to reflect calmness and confidence. He should be able to show restraint in words and conduct and not lash out on Twitter whenever he is angry.

Secondly, the mans economic plan is a disaster. He says he is going to cut taxes and increase spending and you think that is a great economic idea? Hahajaha, chai! Nairalsnders sef, I tire for una.

Lastly, a President should be a man of integrity and should be ethical. This man says sooooooo many untruths it's not even funny. We have never seen this many flaws and failings in a candidate like this and you are comparing him to Reagan hahaha. Dude has so much history and flaws and not to tslk of his multiple conflicts of interest all over the world that he is not willing to disclose and you are hailing him? Wow! Just Wow!
