Trump’s fanciful, falsehood-filled AP interview, annotated
The 40 most outrageous lines in Donald Trump's Associated Press interview
Okay, I am not a fan of Trump, but The Washington Post and CNN seem to have taken things a bit too far. I mean, these are supposed to be legitimate news outlets. They should not be embroiled in petty stuff, right? But The Washington Post's annotations of the AP interview seems more like trolling. CNN's article is in the same league.
Annotating with facts is fine. Calling out lies with facts is fine. But throwing in opinions and other subjective comments borders on trolling, and is not something that a respectable news agency does, even if the rest of the country has gone to the dogs in terms of civility.
I just hope someone out there can go through the transcript, and prepare a proper annotation with the facts.
