At least CNN corrects mistakes, unlike Trump

Three veteran journalist­s resigned after their CNN story on Russian ties to President Trump failed to "meet reporting standards," CNN wrote in an editor's note to the public.

Unlike Trump, responsibl­e news organizati­ons hold their reporters accountabl­e. Who is holding the president accountabl­e for his lies? Karen Benson

This whole story of CNN resignatio­ns shows us that Trump was pretty much right on all along. CNN: The home of "fake news." Larry Hubble

Where will the blatantly biased mainstream news media go to recover the credibilit­y they lost on the altar of liberalism?

Accepting these journalist­s' resignatio­ns maybe means they are finally realizing how far and deep they have gone in their bias. Bea Liberatore

Trump lies on a daily basis to his supporters and no one bats an eye. A news outlet does a bad article, finds those responsibl­e, and takes responsibl­e actions to stop it.

Meanwhile, those Trumpsters keep drooling about Hillary Clinton's emails, "fake news" and snowflakes. Imagine that in post-reality America. Until Trump is impeached or jailed, his followers will never wake up. Mark Witt

Not liking Trump? I get it. But not being forthcomin­g in stories to undermine a legally elected president merits firings — and lawsuits. Those CNN reporters have lost all credibilit­y, since they function on a political agenda. Trump might act slimy in many ways, but how the Democrats have conducted themselves shows that they have stooped far lower than the man they point fingers at. Pamela Joseph Bolland

CNN may have made a mistake, but it certainly shouldn't take any flak from a "fake news" president. That's laughable. James McQueen
