Correction News Network's at it again with another correction

They never make a mistake in favor of Trump or any on the right. They only have to correct their "mistakes" after they make conservatives or Trump look bad.

Now the idiots over at CNN incorrectly labeled Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam as a Republican. That simply cannot be an accident--the Northam issue is much too big to make a boneheaded mistake like that. No, I believe they did it on purpose.

People tend to pay attention to the first report, not the correction.

Northam, of course, is the 1984 medical school graduate, now Democratic Governor of Virginia, who had a photo of a man in blackface and another person in a KKK robe on his yearbook page. He also admitted to wearing blackface in a Michael Jackson lookalike contest.

But Northam is even more scum-worthy for his stance on abortion: he's okay with killing babies after they are born, as long as the baby is "made comfortable" and the mother speaks with the abortion doctor, about what to do next.

The segment, which aired during Friday night’s episode of “Anderson Cooper 360,” showed a chyron identifying Northam as an “R” as the network ran his Twitter apology.

Northam so far hasn’t clarified which one in the photo is him, and has now denied that either one of them is him, but either way the Virginia governor has already lost the support of several key constituencies, with more likely to follow.

He tweeted:

My fellow Virginians, earlier today I released a statement apologizing for behavior in my past that falls far short of the standard you set for me when you elected me to be your governor. I believe you deserve to hear directly from me. pic.twitter.com/1rSw1oxfrX

"That photo and the racist and offensive attitudes it represents does not reflect the person I am today or the way that I have conducted myself as a soldier, a doctor, and a public servant. I am deeply sorry. I cannot change the decisions I made, nor can I undo the harm my behavior caused then and today. But I accept responsibility for my past actions, and I am ready to do the hard work of regaining your trust. I have spent the past year as your governor fighting for a Virginia that works better for all people. I am committed to continuing that fight through the remainder of my term and living up to the expectations that you set for me when you elected me to serve. Thank you."

Fox News reported that Cooper’s initial tweet of the segment included the error “without acknowledgement,” but now the CNN host has since removed the tweet and posted a correction on Saturday morning that included the correct chyron.

“A previous tweet had a video misidentifying Gov. Northam’s party affiliation, it has been removed and the video has been corrected,” Cooper, who giggles like a girl when he's drunk on New Years' wrote.

The Correction News Network [aka Comedy News Network] is remarkably still in business. CNN is to fake news as wet is to water.
