CNN was blasted on Thursday over a "terrible headline" that suggested only President Obama is calling for everyone to continue social distancing not President Trump.
On Wednesday, the former president spoke out and praised the medical staff across the country who are treating patients with coronavirus while encouraging others to take precautions in order to not burden the health care system.

"These are the burdens our medical heroes already face in NYC. It's only going to get harder across the country. Another reason to maintain social distancing policies at least until we have comprehensive testing in place. Not just for our sake—for theirs," Obama said.

"Obama has tweeted encouraging messages during the outbreak, though he's not directly criticized the Trump administration's response to it," CNN politics reporter Chandelis Duster wrote. "On Tuesday, Trump said he wants to ease social distancing measures in order for the country to be 'opened up and just raring to go by Easter.'"

At no point has Trump urged people to stop social distancing. This is a lie by insinuation," Ben Shapiro declared.

"This is a terrible headline - even if Trump is talking about opening up prematurely, he's not saying people should stop social distancing. Really bad stuff, CNN," writer Josh Jordan reacted.

"Trump also said that too, tho so ..." radio host Dana Loesch tweeted.

"Awful headline unworthy of a news org," Washington Examiner executive editor Seth Mandel said.

He gets most of his pure crap from emails such as Gateway pundit and Drudge. I wouldn't share the source either being so whacked.

One thing that I think a lot of folks forget is that reporters collect the info and write the articles. Usually editors come up with the headlines, and that's all about making people want to dive deeper into the story. That's not a defense in this scenario, and I haven't read the article. Maybe it is a hit piece against Trump. I just like to keep that division of labor in mind when I see a headline that doesn't really summarize the actual article.

  • CNN Headline:
    Obama urges Americans to continue social distancing despite Trump's wishes to reopen economy
  • I missed inserting this important quote from the article: Washington (CNN)Former President Barack Obama on Wednesday urged Americans to continue social distancing in an effort to stem the spread of coronavirus, a noticeable difference in tone from his successor.

Wonder if anyone at CNN will get fired for it? I’m guessing no. What say you Boom and Bru?
