CNN has not reported on this at the time of posting- maybe because it's directly attributable to company tax being reduced to only slightly higher than the EU average when it used to be 250%. Bill, take note!

BTY, I helped installing (with a 12 pound sledge hammer )the first dishes( manufactured by one of my roommates at college) that CNN was setting up to reach China for Nixon's visit. One of my best friends attended Columbia U. for his MBA paid for by his immediate boss - Ted Turner.

You can google 'CNN awards' or maybe 'CNN awards won' and learn about some things :)
CNN was founded in 1980 so I don't understand how CNN was planning on covering anything regarding Nixon's visit to China in 1972.
If you have an understanding of how live news reporting works, and journalism is general for matter, you should realize that mistakes are going to happen. There is not a pattern of mistakes here to disregard all news coming from CNN or assume that it's fake news or incorrect news or that any of it was intentional. ..that would be foolish...and also important to understand that when they do make a mistake that own up to it an correct the story. Reporters fact check other reporters all the time -- so tit's wise pay attention to more than one news agency. And of course that goes without saying when it comes to the editorials (f you care about those - don't blame you if you do not) . FoxNews is probably not going to give the same editorial views as MSNBC for example.

>>>>OK the first link does not work -- but as for the other two -- CNN retracted or corrected the articles, figured out where the breakdown was and fired people over it - thus proving the fact that they're not in the fake news business....which is my whole point. Trump points his finger at a CNN reporter and says "you're fake news" and repeatedly attacks the free press....so not only is Trump lying (no shocker there), but what he's doing is very dangerous. You DO see the problem with Trump's attacks on the media don't you?
