CNN is trying to apologize for Suzanne Malveaux and crew joking about Trump’s plane crashing before giving his speech at Carrier in Indiana. The apology is as weak as CNN’s ratings, and they fail to disclose what “discipline” the producer received.

CNN has apologized to Donald Trump after a producer was caught on camera joking with reporter Suzanne Malveaux about the president-elect’s plane crashing.
The remark was made before a live shot on Thursday.
The unidentified producer, in footage obtained and posted on YouTube by Scott Jones of FTV Live, can be heard saying “That means his plane’s crashed. No, I’m kidding.”
CNN released a statement Friday saying the producer had been “disciplined.”
“An unfortunate and inappropriate remark was made by one of our producers off camera yesterday,” CNN said in its statement. “We have apologized to the Trump transition team, and the producer has been disciplined.”
“Disciplined” in CNN terms probably means the producer has gotten a big, fat pay raise. And these idiots still wonder why America doesn’t trust them anymore.
