Jake Tapper Smacks Down Another Trump Attack On CNN
Donald Trump continued his dispute with CNN this morning on Twitter by attacking their ratings, but host Jake Tapper fired back a response saying, "@TheLeadCNN was #1 in its time slot in the demo Tuesday, thanks for watching folks!!"
Trump has been feuding with most cable TV media outlets except Fox News and he's raised the stakes lately against CNN because the reported on the existence of a two page dossier of oppo research on him.
After Donald Trump sparred with CNN's Jim Acosta during his press conference and refused to answer questions from the reporter because he was angry with their reporting on him, calling them "fake news," Jake Tapper defended CNN's report on the two page dossier soon after the press conference had ended.
Early this morning, Trump continued his assault and tweeted this out.
.@CNN is in a total meltdown with their FAKE NEWS because their ratings are tanking since election and their credibility will soon be gone!
