Sarah Huckabee Sanders Escalates White House War on CNN
Urges American people to watch sting video "whether it’s accurate or not."
CNN
During Tuesday afternoon’s White House press briefing, Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders first condemned reporters in the room for the “constant barrage of fake news” directed at President Donald Trump and then urged them to watch a sting video put out by James O'Keefe's Project Veritas that shows CNN medical producer John Bonifield questioning the legitimacy of his network’s Trump-Russia coverage. “There’s a video circulating now, whether it’s accurate or not, I don’t know, but I would encourage everyone in this room and frankly everybody across the country to take a look at it,” Sanders said, acknowledging that she couldn't verify it herself. “If it is accurate, I think it’s a disgrace to all of media, to all of journalism, I think that we have gone to a place where if the media can’t be trusted to report the news, then that’s a dangerous place for America.”
