Thank You CNN!

It looks like the networks are finally getting around to doing near-simultaneous debunking of Trump's speeches.
On the main CNN web site there is now:

1. Trump is little more than a BS artist

Nothing he says can be believed.

[Pacifist Patriot]

4. Did you see this?

From back in December, but relevant given your comment.

9. B.S. artist. Colbert started it weeks ago.

The bullshitter, by contrast, does not care what is true or not. By his or her bluffing, dissimulation, and general dishonesty, the bullshit artist works to erase the very possibility of knowing the truth. For this reason, bullshit is more dangerous than lies, since it erodes even the possibility of truth existing and being found.

22. Great find!

N/T

[Chemisse]

23. Great article! n/t

2. K&R...there's that liberal media messing with don's revelation

[Hortensis]

32. The media created him, now they're tearing him down.

At least this is finally in proper style. Just, just, just maybe they're meeting a standard with instant factcheck that they won't be able to discard so easily and will queer their games in future.

Fingers crossed.

[yallerdawg]

3. Now, that's funny!

&quot HE'S NOT)"!

That is beyond "fact checking" - drifting towards contempt, satire and mockery!

[napkinz]

5. K&R

[lindysalsagal]

6. CNN is making fun of the yellow beast daily, now.

Someone gave the greenlight. He had it coming.

[PatSeg]

21. It is about time

You can't let the BS stand for even a few minutes, as it gets stuck in some viewers brains as the absolute truth. Debunking it later, often has little effect on many people.

[MoonRiver]

7. I didn't like Brooke Baldwin's coverage after Hillary's wonderful economic speech.

She let the Rump moron dominate the entire discussion. Hillary's spokesman could barely get a word in edgewise.

[Raine1967]

8. Fact checking is now editorializing according the to leader of the RW.

Let that sink in.

Rush is actually calling FACT CHECKING editorializing.

News outlet actually calling out lies is fact checking.

I am so over the RWHM.

[bulloney]

34. Limbaugh's been used to spewing lies and BS for so long without being held accountable,

he just thinks being a pathological serial liar is just a part of being on the radio.

Limbaugh wouldn't know what the truth is if his life depended on it. His livelihood certainly doesn't.

[leftynyc]

10. And THIS is why you

don't take on the media and call them rigged and corrupt. They ALWAYS get the last word.

[secondwind]

11. ISIS was created in 1999.. how funny!

[GoDawgs]

13. I think it was season 1 of Archer

[peggysue2]

12. And this is Why . . .

The Donald has taken to call CNN the Clinton News Network. They're not buying into Trump's bullshit any longer.

Love Limbaugh's reaction--they're not allowing him to explain what he actually means.

When you're explaining, you're losing.

Facts are a terrible thing, eh Rush?

[lunatica]

14. If it makes Limbaugh whine it makes me happy

[bucolic_frolic]

15. Is he the fall guy

for radical GOP ideology that beget the Tea Party and consumed the mainstream?

Come January, they can blame Trump, and continue to snipe at HRC from the
sidelines

They won't have to accept the toxicity and inefficacy of their own platform
as being responsible for their implosion

True Believers refuse to accept the truth

[Initech]

16. Instant fact check - now with 150% accuracy!

[ToxMarz]

17. Limbaugh: “They Don’t Take The Time To Explain What Trump Means”

That's what you get paid $$$$millions for.

[Jopin Klobe]

18. Rush ...

... who? ...

[left-of-center2012]

19. Did they fire Corey Lewandowski?

No?

Oh

[SleeplessinSoCal]

20. Hey Limbaugh! Read his lips.

[spooky3]

24. CNN engaging in journalism! This is HUGH!!11!!

[sinkingfeeling]

25. Uh? But Rush, he always mean something what he says.

[Thinkingabout]

26. Cuomo did a job on Guiliani this morning, he did not allow hin to make the diversions

He is able to pull on others. Trump can't be explained.

[applegrove]

27. GOP is in full gaslighting form right now.

[liberal N proud]

28. Only because they knew that lie wouldn't fly.

[The_Casual_Observer]

29. Why would CNN bother explaining what Trump means???

That's up to Trump isn't it?
This rw propaganda shit needs to stop now.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

30. I dont' think we need anyone to explain what Trump means.

That's pretty clear. "I will do or say anything that somehow serves my continual and eternal mission in life-elf aggrandizement--no matter what the consequences to others."

He's so fking transparent.

[Cooley Hurd]

31. They've been doing the fact-check-in-parentheses things for a few weeks now...

Kudos to them!

[Beartracks]

33. Sure, Rush, partisan BS is news, and....

.... FACTS are editorial.

Got it.
