“Never kick a man when he’s down” is a reminder not to exploit or pile on someone who’s already struggling or in a weakened state, and doing so is both unfair and lacking in basic decency.

Before we continue, I meant what I said in the headline with respect to laughing.
Anyone who has watched the TDS-riddled likes of Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski, Rachel Maddow, Nicolle Wallace, Chris Hayes, Jen Psaki — the list goes on — and now reads the new “ten core principles,” and then contrasts those principles with the aforementioned list of Democrat Party sock puppets will surely laugh out loud — or at least laugh heartily to themselves.
Let’s jump into those “core principles,” shall we? As reported by AdWeek, they include:
Accuracy, fairness, and opinion, which … should be based on “accurate, reported facts.” Meanwhile, the news network will put an emphasis on sources that can be identified by name. If a source needs to remain anonymous, the knowledge must be firsthand, and the network must be transparent about why the source is remaining anonymous.
OK, the part about anonymous sources, if followed, should be embraced by all media.

Color me skeptical, but I’ll believe it when (if) I see it.
Meanwhile, CNN — the ridiculously self-proclaimed “most trusted name in news” continues to do what it’s always done in the Age of Trump. And as we all know, if you If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always gotten. In CNN’s case, that’s continuing to watch your ratings swirl down the toilet.
Note: The Schumer Shutdown is here. Rather than put the American people first, Chuck Schumer and the radical Democrats forced a government shutdown for healthcare for illegals. They own this.
