If you need more evidence of the way
Donald Trump‘s presidential candidacy has distorted reality in political journalism, look no further than the aftermath of the presumptive
Republican nominee’s
Hillary Clinton attack speech from Wednesday.
Following that speech,
CNN performed a fairly exhaustive fact check on
Trump’s attacks, and found 11 of the 18 claims they evaluated to be “false,” while five were rated “true,” and two others were found to be “true, but misleading.” The
Clinton campaign put out its own list of “15 Biggest
Lies” from the speech.
Despite all of that, Trump’s speech has generated relatively high marks from the “objective” political press, who are always impressed when he manages to read off a teleprompter and managed not to drop the n-word. On CNN’s
New Day Thursday morning, though, the bar was lowered even further by CNN political reporter Nia-Malika
Henderson, who told her fellow four-box denizens that it really doesn’t matter that Trump’s speech was “riddled with falsehoods”:
