Very Fake News CNN Deletes Story Linking Trump Transition Team to Russia

Very fake news CNN deleted a story from its website Friday evening about congressional investigators allegedly focusing on a Russian investment fund whose top executive met with a Trump transition team member, the Washington Examiner reports.

Via Washington Examiner:

“On June 22, 2017, CNN.com published a story connecting Anthony Scaramucci with investigations into the Russian Direct Investment Fund,” The retraction reads. “That story did not meet CNN’s editorial standards and been retracted. Links to the story have been disabled. CNN apologized to Mr. Scaramucci.”

According to the original report, CNN claimed the Senate Intelligence Committee was investigating a Russian fund and its connections to discussions between the bank’s head and White House adviser Jared Kushner.

The story, which is based on information from one unnamed source, also linked Treasure Secretary Steven Mnuchin to investigations surrounding Trump transition team executive committee member Anthony Scaramucci and the Russian fund’s chief executive.

The story disappeared without any further information. BuzzFeed News contacted CNN after they noticed the story’s disappearance on Friday evening, an hour later a retraction appeared on the site.

This is exactly how the fake news media operates. They run one fake story after another with anonymous sources only to retract or delete the story later after millions of people have seen it. Very few people see the retraction which is usually buried anyway. The fake news media is radicalizing liberals with their incessant Trump-Russia chatter. Liberal lunatics actually believe that Trump is a traitor and an agent for Putin which is why they are calling for his death.
