Boy, is CNN on a roll today or what? It wasn’t enough for their PR team to take a snotty, unprofessional swipe at the White House today after Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham called them out for an embarrassing geographical mistake.
Thanks, Stephanie. Yes, we made a mistake (which we fixed in less than 30 seconds). And now we are admitting it. You all should try it sometime.

Think the Sharpie thing was stupid? Fine. But what they’re insinuating is neither helpful nor honest. And it sure as hell isn’t journalism.
REALLY?!

And what does this say about CNN’s priorities?
"Who cares about informing people about the storm, let's whine about a map"

#FactsFirst and all that jazz.
Better chyron would be "As people die, CNN pendatically focuses in on irrelevant controversy."

"As people die, CNN still reporting on trivial crap."

Congratulations, CNN, on finding yet another path to the gutter.
CNN is now just 100% Democrat propaganda channel!
