I don't really care. Did you care when Fox - people got fired? nm

The Fox people did not get fired for LYING - and making up fake news

No, most got fired for sexual harassment - which

The reporters made up the news and - gave credibility to Trump's fake news claim

Please show me where it said the reporters - made up the story. nm

From CNN itself. Is that enough proof for you? - Truthhurts

If these reporters didn't do a fake story, then tell me why CNN apologized to Anthony Scaramucci? They usually don't retract stories but I guess it's getting too hot for CNN to keep on going with "loosely reported truth" stories. Anonymous sources doesn't work, especially like CNN stated they used ONE anonymous source. I guess CNN couldn't even verify the source so fake story it is.

 Thomas Frank, who wrote the story in question; Eric Lichtblau, an editor in the unit; and Lex Haris, who oversaw the unit, have all left CNN.

"In the aftermath of the retraction of a story published on CNN.com, CNN has accepted the resignations of the employees involved in the story's publication," a spokesman said Monday evening.

An internal investigation by CNN management found that some standard editorial processes were not followed when the article was published, people briefed on the results of the investigation said.

The story, which reported that Congress was investigating a "Russian investment fund with ties to Trump officials," cited a single anonymous source. These types of stories are typically reviewed by several departments within CNN -- including fact-checkers, journalism standards experts and lawyers -- before publication. 

This breakdown in editorial workflow disturbed the CNN executives who learned about it.
In a staff meeting Monday afternoon, investigative unit members were told that the retraction did not mean the facts of the story were necessarily wrong. Rather, it meant that "the story wasn't solid enough to publish as-is," one of the people briefed on the investigation said.
The reporting about the Russian investment fund and Trump officials was not relayed on CNN's television channels, but it was published on the web and shared on social media.On Friday, one of the people named in the story, Trump ally Anthony Scaramucci, disputed Frank's reporting and said, "I did nothing wrong."Friday night, once it was determined that editorial processes were not followed, CNN deleted the story from CNN.com. Soon thereafter, the story was officially retracted and replaced with an editor's note.

The piece "did not meet CNN's editorial standards and has been retracted," the note said. "Links to the story have been disabled."

The editor's note also included an apology to Scaramucci.

So you don't care about the truth? You must be a liberal - anon

Love it. Fake News exposed. - CNN and MSNBC are proven liars

So much for anonymous sources.  I always discredited any anonymous source story.  I actually thought anonymous sources may be the reporters imaginary friend created to have a story they did not otherwise have.

"Three journalists from CNN’s investigative unit are leaving the network after the retraction of their June 22 story connecting an ally of President Trump to a Russian investment fund."

"The story, citing an anonymous source, said Senate investigators were examining a meeting between Wall Street financier Anthony Scaramucci and an executive for the Russian Direct Investment Fund. The $10-billion fund makes direct investments in Russian companies."

MSNBC? - Where is that

It is a matter of time before MSNBC - is exposed. They are all alike, fake news

Crystal ball? - Or just a

Birds of a feather flock together - Anonymous sources are fake news to me

I suppose you believe all the right-winged - rags though.

They did not say the story was not true. - Scaramucci said it wasn't

Why do you suppose the story was pulled - and 3 CNN reporters let go?

Apparently you didn't pay attention to facts. - They weren't fired, they resigned.

Did you ever hear of the option of resign - or be fired? Usually in high powered jobs

Do you work at CNN? Seems you know - an awful lot, according

There is no crystal ball involved. Just facts - logic and common sense

You mean "alternative facts" - LMT
