In keeping with the rhetoric of President Donald Trump, many conservatives leap at the chance to discredit the “fake news” media, whose worse culprit most believe to be CNN.
The usual target is the network’s political reporting, but as Hurricane Florence swept through the Carolinas, conservatives instead began criticizing its weather coverage, starting with a widely-shared meme of CNN anchor Anderson Cooper. The meme was even shared by senior Housing and Urban Development official Lynne Patton.
