CNN warns of 'massive cuts'; Grover Norquist posts 'graphic slasher stuff'

CNN must be tired of being the “boring” Left-leaning cable news network, while MSNBC’s anchors are invited to the White House to “lean forward.” CNN’s recent chyron asking if Sen. Marco Rubio’s sip of water was a “career-ender” drew enough attention for the network to backtrack later and explain it was just a joke. Is today’s over-the-top graphic warning of “massive cuts” another joke?

Grover Norquist has helpfully provided a chart depicting just how massive those massive “cuts” are.
