We passed those are the facts: CNN publicly calls out Kellyanne Conways new lies about show invite

After CNN declined an administration offer to have Conway appear on its State of the Union show on Sunday, the New York Times reported that executives at CNN have serious questions about Conways credibility, which may lead them to refuse future offers to have her on their shows.

Reacting to this report, Conway said on Twitter that family issues prevented her from appearing on Sunday shows this week, while also slamming the false reporting about CNN executives doubting her credibility.

@KellyannePolls

False. I could do no live Sunday shows this week BC of family. Plus, I was invited onto CNN today & tomorrow. CNN Brass on those emails

CNNs official public relations Twitter handle quickly called out Conways claim, and said that she was offered to SOTU by the White House this week. We passed, CNN emphasized. Those are the facts.

Shortly after CNNs message, MSNBC Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski sent out a cryptic message telling CNN that it was not the first show to decline an offer to have Conway on air.

these grifters need the media MUCH more than the media needs them. They can only spread their crap to so many on FOX. They need the other media outlets to allow their paid liars on to spew there as well. Refuse to allow the liars to lie.

They knew she was a liar during the campaign, but they allowed her and other Con surrogates to spew their nonsense for the sake of ratings. NOW they want to grandstand about doing something they should have done a long time ago. I'm not willing to give them any credit for this obvious decision.

once the embarrassment that is the Donald is out of office needs to decline having her on their shows or airing any clips from her propaganda spewing mouth because all they are doing is aiding and abetting.

If the news agencies don't stop, at some point it's bound to turn around and bite them in the ass because it's going to damage their credibility.

... reeeeeeally ...

... they have "serious questions" ... so, they're not quite sure ...

... my, what a fine example of the lightning-fast cognition so vastly prevalent in our oh-so-diligent "news" (HAAAAAaaaa-ha-ha-ha) "media" (throw up a little in the mouth) ...

maybe she means fax, not facts. Like something is true if she faxed it to someone else.

Really? NOW you finally realize this?
