Stunning and brave! CNN's head of standards gives the green light for 'BULLSH*T,' citing Donald Trump

In case you missed it, Donald Trump is acting super-presidential and mature again today:

Classy AF. Well, anyway, there’s a silver lining to that tweet. CNN now has permission to use “BULLSH*T” to their hearts’ content:

CNN just cleared its staff to use "BULLSHIT" in graphics, banners & headlines, per memo from network head of standards.

"We should show and say it because the President sent it out just that way," memo says.

Move over, “sh*thole countries”! Now CNN gets to employ an even more useful expression in the name of guarding the truth. So stunning and brave!

Another milestone.

Oh how edgy.

So edgy it drew blood.

I don't care, but that's dumb reasoning. And you can hear the self-righteous indignation in it. https://t.co/ZR2uuM92KS

Self-righteous indignation is what CNN does best. Besides fake news, of course.

CNN has standards?

Just the double kind.

Food for thought:

I mean…didn't they just have De Niro on dropping f-bombs? https://t.co/hmHlTBH5vf
