FCC boss Brendan Carr said CNN must face ‘accountability’ for a report he claims is inaccurate without providing evidence

Donald Trump fired off a seething threat against CNN Tuesday night in response to its reporting Iran had claimed a “great victory” over the U.S. following the president’s announcement to delay his ceasefire deadline by two weeks.

Trump had originally given Iran until 8 p.m. ET Tuesday to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, warning a refusal would mean a “whole civilization will die.”

Around 90 minutes before that deadline, Trump and the White House released statements saying the U.S. and Iran had agreed to negotiate an end to hostilities that would include the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and the suspension of fighting for two weeks.

Following the announcement, CNN published a post to its online live blog detailing the Iranian response.

      Fox isn’t news, they’ve already won this in court. But adding fox news entertainment they claim they’re not news in the same way the naked news doesn’t necessarily need to be accurate because it’s intent is entertainment not providing information. Though that said I think the naked news is likely more accurate on average then fox.
