CNN lies again

Lanny Davis is one of Cohen's attorneys.  You know Cohen the former lawyer of Donald Trump.  The one whose office was raided and all his records seized.

But what's odd is that Lanny has always been a big supporter of the Clintons.

The oddness goes away when we discover that Davis has been using Cohen as a battering ram to attack Trump; it's clear Lanny is still serving the Clintons not Cohen.

It has now been uncovered that Lanny told CNN that Cohen had evidence that Trump knew in advance of Trump Jr's meeting with a Russian who was peddling dirt on Hillary.

Ignoring for the moment that Lanny and CNN have no problem with Hillary paying Russians for dirt on Trump there is another problem with CNN's coverage.

In the article CNN said that Lanny Davis didn't provide a comment but we now know that Lanny was the anonymous source that the same CNN article cited.  So CNN lied; Lanny had commented but just not for attribution.

Even worse Lanny is now saying that in fact Cohen didn't have any knowledge that Trump knew in advance of his son's meeting with a Russian who turned out to have nothing to say.

So apparently Lanny lied to CNN and CNN lied to it's readers.

And people like Chuck Todd say that media bias isn't real.
