CNN continues to come apart at the seems. After the election of Trump, they have gone absolutely bat-shit crazy with their hate and left wing propaganda. They even labeled The Gateway Pundit (a conservative blog that has been around since 2004) as a “fake news site” designed to “trick people.”
Finally, CNN has been forced to issue a retraction of the claim that Gateway Pundit is a “fake news” site designed to trick people. This all stems from the coverage of the Pepsi CEO dissing Trump supporters.

Editor’s Note: An earlier version of this story characterized Gateway Pundit as a website “designed to trick people.” That was not accurate. The Gateway Pundit is a political blog based in St. Louis that is popular among conservatives. CNNMoney has removed that characterization and regrets the error.
This story also reported that Gateway Pundit had published a widely circulated misquote of public comments made by the CEO of Pepsi. CNNMoney has been unable to confirm that Gateway Pundit repeated that misquote.
Of course, it took CNN nearly a month to retract their smear on Gateway Pundit. The article with the lie was posted on November 16th. The retract finally came yesterday. This is CNN.
