but first cnn's response. the strongest statement i've seen from cnn or any news outlet this year in response to the president's attacks. quote it is a sad day when the president of the united states encourages violence against reporters. cleary sarah huckabee sanders lied when she said the president had never done so. instead of preparing for his overseas trip, his first meeting with vladimir putin, north korea and working on the health care bill he is involved in juvenile behavior far below the dignity of his office. the statement from cnn saying we will keep doing our jobs. he should start doing his. and this is day six of trump's anti-media tweet storms. we've been covering this all week long. his offensive tweets about joe scarborough and mika brzezinski took up days of news coverage and those came after days of attacks against cnn and "the washington post." now his target on sunday is cnn again. who knows which outlet will be next. who's going to speak out? are other media outlets going to speak up? i th

wrestling cnn. according to the article, the network decided against releasing this reddit user's identity because, "he is aen private citizen" he shook his remark by saying he is taken down all his offending post, and because he said he is not goingg to repeat this ugly behavior on social media again. the article then went on to issue what appeared to be a not so veiled threat. "cnn reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change."ul cnn has denied any allegations of blackmail, issuing a statement that read in part "cnn decided not to publish the names of the reddit user out of concern for his safety." joining us now in a reaction to the latest investment of cnn is salem radio nationally syndicated radio host larry elder, and from "the hill" joe concha. when cnn says, we are not publishing his name because we are concerned for his personal safety, but then they turn around and say, but if he's bad, if he does anything like this again, we are going to dock him. tell us what that

the cnn logo. they threatened to reveal his identity. when you hear of a company as big as cnn going after some little guy on the internet. >> it's disgusting. it's a very bad look for cnn and it's hurting them a lot. they guaranteed there will be 900,000 memes of donald trump. jesse: the ratings in the last two weeks since the fake news has gone down for cnn. and it's unfortunate for cnn. >> everything on that channel, that show, it's all attack trump. that gets boring after a while. look at way he shook hand. did you see the tweet, oh, my god, my god, my god. jesse: we had that at the front of the show. jesse: the next time you are in the hollywood walk of stars. >> walk of fame. jesse: if you see someone defacing donald trump's star would you give them a thump for me? >> if i saw someone burning the american flag, they will hear my opinion. jesse: if you see dean cain at the hollywood walk of stars or walk of fame, don't deface the star, he's coming after you. "watters world" gets the coop on wh

called out cnn. "cnn and democrats calling trump assassination play artistic expression but wwf joke is a call for violence." joining me now is the panel. thanks for being here. new developments. you have the tweet from donald, jr., and the meme out this weekend. seems to me and i think the polling and the analysis will back it up that this president has received more unfair, negative coverage than any other president.ei >> something like 93% of the coverage is negative from cnn.hi that's nowhere near fair and balanced and it's been relentless. from when he was elected, even before he was elected but itit goes beyond cnn.as you had madonna saying she dreams about blowing up the white house. snoop dogg did a video where he pulled the trigger on a revolver, a clown dressed up to look like donald trump. kathy griffin holding up the chopped off head. i call it assassination chic and it's not just done by odd people. these are artists, they have been in some of the biggest movies. that sort of thing is ap

cnn went after you and threatened to expose the person who did it. >> cnn is bad and nbc despite the fact i made them a fortune on the "apprentice." i think cnn has hurt themselves very badly and has taken it too far. howie: meghan mccain co-host of "outnumbered," ed henry, and mo elleithee. is there something unseemly about president obama ripping the press in a foreign country. ed: he was asked a question and he answered it. how many stories cnn is retracting or running from, people resigning. maybe there was a calmer point in american politics where president's didn't beat up on the media this much. i remember when i was overseas with bush 43 and president obama and mayors didn't go over there to the g-20 summit to give earn alternative view of what's going on, making it seem like he's i am a thiegs with these resisters. howie: did that trouble up at all? meg requirmeghan: i was more imd with him making a speech of and revival of american exceptionalism. i was impressed with his speech in poland. he was asked a specific question he chose to answer. cnn is doing this to themselves.

if you go on cnn there is but cnn means. >> kimberly: what do they say? don't feed the trolls. >> greg: if you expose yourr weakness, if i tell you guys i don't like seafood, the firsts. thing you start doing is eatingr shrimp in the green room. >> dana: remember when your cousin would hit you in the head saying what he keep hitting yourself? that's what they were doing. if they would've said, well? played mr. president, how's your health care bill going? that would've been fine.si but the thing that makes -- the punishing of the artist, no matter who they are. i was saying in the green room, remember the benghazi video maker? the obama administration, the government in that case, tracked on this guy who made a video and put him in jail based on some sort of parole violation. and he was in jail forever. >> greg: yeah. instead of blaming terror, blame a video. instead of taking a lump, you ga after some kid. it doesn't even matter who does the meme. the meme has a life of its own. you don't know where it comes from. that's the internet. >> jesse: and you d

howie: was cnn's apology enough? we'll speak to anthony scaramucci. >> we can't take the bullying anymore. it's undermining the 4th estate, it's undermining the first amendment. howie: sarah palin suing the "new york times" over an inflammatory editorial linking her to a 6-year-old shooting. this is "mediabuzz." mika brzezinski and her fiance joe scarborough have been boosing the president for many months on "morning joe." >> i have lost hope completely and my mind is closed. this presidency is fake and failed. >> he's a nar he's a narcissist. he's not well. >> my mother has had dementia for two years. that sounds like the sort of thing my mother would say today. howie: president trump firing back on twitter. how come low i.q. crazy mika along with crazy joe came to mar-a-lago. >> as soon as i saw the word "bleeding" i flinched. he took it too far. there are ways to get your message across where you don't stoop to that level. >> it degrades the political discourse and embarrasses the country. >> to demean the woman s

today, it happens to be cnn. but it's been "the new york times" and "the washington post" and other networks. who knows who his target will be tomorrowsome >> stay with us. we want to bring in the rest of our panel. jeffrey, let's start with you. there are republicans raising serious concerns about this. here's the congressman from new york. >> when i was 10 years old, we looked up to the president of the united states. we're trying to understand the difference of right and wrong and set our own moral compass to be future leaders. being presidential is being that role model. and i don't believe that some of what he's doing on twitter is setting if right example for my kids. >> jeffrey, is the president setting the right example for america's kids? >> look, i know lee zeldin and i have a lot of respect for him, but i disagree with him. the logic that this could result in violence against journalists, let's just flip this and wonder -- i mean, cnn, and i don't want to pick on cnn. cnn, "the washington post," "the n

trump has made cnn look fakery and professional wrestling. what cnn does is they overreact. they look like fools. it reminds you of the older brother, i'll turn this way. it's more appropriate. >> kimberly: and you are older. >> jesse: he goes like that. then the younger brother freaks out, whines, cries, hits his head on the couch and says mommy come of the older brother hit me. and meanwhile he didn't do anything and that is what's happening with cnn right now. cnn has spent years attacking wall street traders, coal miners, everybody they can get their hands on. at the minute someone criticizes a journalist, it's like world war iii. they are total hypocrites too. you can behead him and assassinate him but that's an artist. >> kimberly: a masterpiece. >> jesse: trump doesn't and everyone is clutching their pearls. >> greg: i know you've got a lot to defend here, i'm going to ask a question. [laughter] >> greg: the big criticism is that this is not a presidential. do you think it's not presidential? >> richard: i thought this tweak was a joke. i laughed. it was funny. let's

some are opposing cnn of black male. >> greg: in the spirit of woodward and bernstein, cnn tracked down the dude who posted the trump wrestling video. imagine if cnn went off their violent rioters and looters the way they go after a cruise prankster. apparently the guy posted some pretty bad stuff in the past, but come on cnn, you are starting to creep us out. in an article boasting about their scoop. cnn said they would not publish his name, because he apologized and promised they would not do it again. but cnn added that they reserve the right to publish his identity should anything change. the network pursues a guy up over a joke about them, then after he has spooked, they grant him safety on unless he misbehaves. again, this isn't some violent thug who burned down a bodega, it's a guy who teased the network. why would cnn do this? is this to keep others from making fun of them? in a statement, cnn claims the guy apologized before speaking to the reporter, as if being contacted initially by cnn wasn't the catalyst. then they added conditions based on the guy's behavior. this is sinis

with the cnn logo. that is making a lot of news is morning as we go to paul on the democrats line. : i think it is the -- caller: i think it is the most unpresidential thing i've ever seen. he is a coward. whoill probably talk to jennifer how to set up a state ll-crapia so he can bu his way through the white house. it is unbelievable that people are supporting that. host: what you think of the message? aller: that he doesn't want free press. he did wants us to be a communist country. he lies constantly. outthe free press brings his lies but he doesn't like that because he is a serial liar. and all the people who support him watch fox news which is a line channel. thats the only channel tells the truth. and it is bothersome. host:, ok, let's go to teresa on the republican line. good morning. caller: first of all, i don't even know where to begin. it was a joke. has been hit since before he was even elected. not one of his tweet's has ever outed a republican to go and shoot a bunch of democrats like the m

that from cnn. this morning, white house homeland security adviser thomas bossert had this to say at the president's tweet. >> yeah. certainly not, though. i think no one would perceive that as threat and hope they don't but i think he's beaten up in a way on cable platforms he has a right to respond to and does that regularly. >> you don't think that's a threat to anyone or sending a message do that to the media? do that to cnn? >> certainly not. i don't think so. and importantly, he's a genuine president expressing himself genuinely and i think why he was elected. the most genuine person and people find him to be someone they can understand and relate to talk more about all this with our panel. cnn senior immediate correspondent brian stelter, and politics commentator kayleigh mcenany and sally cohen. good to see all of you. i would like to hear your response to president trump tweeting that smackdown of cnn. what do you think? >> look, i think it was intended as a tongue and cheek satirical video

slamming the cnn logo. it started when he shared the t video on twitter and went viral. they hunted down the creator and threatened to reveal his identity. when you hear about a company going after some little guy on the internet, how does that make you feel? >> it's disgusting. it makes them look absolutely terrible. it's a very, very bad look for cnn. it's hurting them. they've also guaranteed that there will now be 900,000 meme of donald trump. jesse: if you look on the right now you can find them. the ratings actually in the last two weeks sense this fake news has really gone down for cnn and it's unfortunate for cnn. >> they become everything on that channel, that show, it's all antitrust. that gets boring after a while. if you keep saying the same thing over and over -- if you see the tweets or the zero my god zero my god zero my god. jesse: it was phony. i let it slide. >> i was talking in the green room. jesse: can you do me a favor w contract next time you're in the hollywood walk of stars, if you

i'm not attacking cnn. i am wondering cnn spends -- >> made a business decision to be unfair to the president. what we're trying to do is cover an unusual president and explain what the heck is going on at a white house that seems dysfunctional. >> first of all, that's not fair. i constantly hear this coming out of the mouths of people that never worked in any white house, yet alone this white house. if you want a candid, clear look at the white house, come inside. a two-way street. we don't see that. i'm a very accessible person you'll find with anthony scaramucci and others in humble. we don't get the calls to come in. we turn on the tv and one-way, nonconversation using words that are meant to deny the president his do. i'm here to ask you -- >> you're welcome here any time presidency. >> thank you for the platform. i want america to hear what has been done for them. the forgotten man and woman are not forgotten to us. >> it's not your -- i was just going to say, not our job to do your pr. it's your job.

he apologized supposedly before cnn -- he contacts then cnn. but he probably had heard or sensed he was about to be found out. but now interestingly, his apolo apology, which he then posts, gets removed from rhett did. why? pause they don't want people to apologize for this behavior. they want to be able to defend this kind of behavior. ? that's really notable because this is what i thought was remarkable, chris, was that we saw somebody who was a troll apologize, you know? we wish that they wouldn't do it obviously to begin with. the racist stuff is repugnant, obviously. but it meant to the next level where some humanity snuck in accidentally somehow? >> it wasn't accidental. >> it snuck in. however it got there. so here's what he said. let me read it. i would also like to apologize for the posts made that were racist, bigoted and anti-semitic. i am in no way this kind of person. i would never support any kind of violence or actions against others simply for what they believe in nor would i carry out any violence against anyone based on that o

once again, cnn fell for fake news. now, the humorless part, he could've last this thing off and moved on but no, they lost it over this. it is not even very good. you can tell that it's not really cnn, it's not real. of course, once you say something bugs you to a bunch of people on twitter, what will they do next? this will make more of it. that's what happens when you tell people what bothers you. they step it up. anyone with siblings knows this. it's why i tell strangers that i hate being tickled. [laughter] of course, that's pretty creepy. of course, the really creepy part was making that veiled threat. now, i've been waiting for something like this to happen for years. ever since i turned right in the '80s conservatives were always painted as humorless and we were the shrill, tight but now we've changed and so has the left. we are now the fun people and there that miserable. [cheering] a decade ago i coined something called the dean wormer theory. it's based on the data from animal house. for so long the right was

cnn's -- robin, cnn's reporting is that the current and former u.s. intelligence officials had told cnn that u.s. adversaries feel emboldened by the lack of retaliatory response from both the obama and trump administrations going into the meeting tomorrow with putin. do you think this reporting is going to put more pressure on president trump? >> i think it's probably going to put pressure on him to have said something to vladimir putin. you have to remember, this is a half-hour meeting. not going to be time to do much between a photo op, shaking hands and the translations, talking about make 20 minutes. several major issues to discuss, ukraine, isis, most of all, north korea. the united states is looking for something to come out of this. this is the biggest meeting of the president's young presidency and been enormous focus on his relationship with putin. whether he's met him before or not. and that something has -- he has to produce something out of this to look like he is the strongman capable of taking on one of the shrewdest russian leaders of,

when you delegitimize cnn or help cnn delegitimize themselves, they are weaker. people trust them less. they are not able to lie about him and his agenda on a daily basis. the democrats have really not been in power since november because they lost pretty much everything. and now the media has really taken on the role of the true opponent. he believes bullying the media serves his best interest. >> kimberly: and then the make of presence of than ski team 19 act the issues going on with north korea, it's very much aware of those things being in play and thought okay, well -- >> richard: i just have two things on that. >> kimberly: strategy. >> richard: i get that, yeah. here's the larger point. >> jesse: larger than mine? >> richard: it's possible. >> richard: easy. >> richard: i have always looked up to the president of the united states. the question i've always had is what i want my children -- i don't have any now -- what i want them to model donald trump where he makes fun of women, which he did to mika, no one can deny that. >> greg: he's an equal opportunit

but cnn is using its resources on this. dagen: cnn had to issue another statement. cnn decide not to publish the name of the reddit user out of concern for his safety. user who is an adult male, not a 15-year-old boy apologized and deleted his account before speak with our reporter. cnn never made any deal with the user. the fact it was a joke. why are we treating this like it was some threat to the safety of our nation. >> i think it was embarrassing that president trump tweeted that out. that's the story the way the president behaved. that somebody made something stupid on the internet is not a story. that cnn defends him is misleading. at least it conflicts with what we saw saying the apology came after cnn contacted them. it all came down, then the guy responded. if you read the last line of that cnn piece, it clearly read like a threat. we reserve the right to publish his name if he acts up again. this is why people go along with donald trump's tirades against the media. but now people actually fear the media, that the media will come after them if they critici

but once again, cnn fell for fake news! [laughter] the humorless part, they could have left this up and moved on but no! they lusted over this. [video] >> it is not even very good. i mean you can tell it is not really cnn, it's not real! but of course, once you say something bugsy to a bunch of people on twitter, what are they going to do next? ill just make more of it. that is what happens when you tell people what bothers you. they step it up. anyone with siblings knows this! [laughter] it's why i tell strangers that i hate being tickled. [laughter] that is pretty creepy. of course the creepy part was making the threat. i've been waiting for something like this to happen for years. ever since i turned in the 80s conservatives were always painted as humorless. we were the shrill tight - but we have change and now has the left. so they are now the miserable's. i coined something called the dean wormer 's theory. my deal was to make us the pranksters but then the left the dean wormer spirit than they did themselves by embrac
