Try to hold yourselves together as CNN’s Brian Stelter pontificates on journalism and the truth:
There's "the media," and then there's "anti-media" like Breitbart. @BrianStelter explains. https://t.co/Fdz9yIrUVf

Yes, there are fake news sites. There are sites who don’t care about fact checking, they just want to drag you in for clicks. Yes, some of them call themselves ‘conservative’ or seek to appeal to those on the right.
But it’s sort of a laughable exercise in which Stelter is engaging, especially considering CNN’s actions in this election. Their contributor Donna Brazile and their anchor Wolf Blitzer were caught acting in collusion with the Clinton campaign, Brazile getting and passing along debate questions to Clinton and Blitzer in getting questions from the DNC in order to grill Trump.
Reliable Sources is such a believer in promoting truth, they have Dan Rather on as an ‘analyst’ to talk about how the media now needs to do its job of holding the President’s feet to the fire. Where have they been the last eight years?
