CNN, the outlet now known as the least-trusted name in cable news, isn’t having a good day and is lashing out like a collection of spoiled, petulant children.  After being blocked from a White House press gaggle, Jake Tapper went on the warpath, calling the administration “un-American.”

“The White House does not value an independent press. There is a word for that: Un-American,” Tapper tweeted:

Naturally, the tweet sparked a flurry of criticism:

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

Apparently so…

One person reminded Tapper:

Can you say, “Fox News?”

And where was Tapper? Inquiring minds wanted to know:

Then there was this:

No bias there, right, Jake?

Bingo.

How about it, Jake?

As we’ve reported time and again, the so-called “mainstream media,” known here as the “Democrat-media complex,” has gone out of its way to manipulate the electorate with pro-Clinton or anti-Trump propaganda.  Now that Trump has won, the complex is all-in to undermine and destroy his presidency, truth be damned.

And that’s the problem.

Yes, we have a free press, Jake.  But if you want respect, you have to first give it and show that you’re worthy of it.  So far, your network has failed.
