CNN’s Bad Week: From Lanny Davis to Antifa
By Jeffrey Lord | September 1, 2018 4:00 PM EDT

Talk about a bad week!

One is simply gobsmacked at what has been going on over at CNN.

Back there in the mists of July, CNN’s Jim Sciutto, Carl Bernstein posted a piece on the latest-of-the-moment “news” about the now infamous “Trump Tower” meeting between various Trump supporters (Don Jr., Jared Kushner and Paul Manafort) and a Russian woman who was pitched as having campaign dirt on Hillary but in fact was there to, as it turned out, lobby against an American law on adoption the Russians hate. Among the controversies is whether Donald Trump knew of the meeting in advance. He says no.

Thus the “breaking news” aspect of this was that supposedly now-estranged Trump attorney Michael Cohen said he did. Something Cohen twice denied to an investigating congressional committee. The CNN piece contained this line:

    “Contacted by CNN, one of Cohen’s attorneys, Lanny Davis, declined to comment.”
