You just know there's some background staffer at CNN sitting there who was like "oh damn I grabbed the wrong photo" meanwhile we're sitting here like "this is why you can't trust the media, they intentionally get the photo wrong!" lol.

And the WH couldn’t wait to pounce

agree...but remember if Fox news would have made the same mistake, CNN would have an article on the front page claiming "All Indian Americans Look the Same to FOX News" and of course claim some sort of racism inside the link.

Why should they? CNN has consistently published false/wrong/misleading information about the Trump White House, and then publishes a retraction after the fact.

If you had someone who once had credibility constantly telling your peers wrong information you wouldn't put up with it. If Fox News puts out false information the entire media world lines up to point it out, SNL does skits about it, and the Hollywood/Media pundits shake their heads and say wow they are racist/misogynistic/dumb etc. Damn Skippy the White House ought to point it out. I'll change my opinion when SNL starts doing skits about CNN, and when CNN puts out false information about HC without front page retractions.

Eh whatever

We heard plenty of lies about Obama for 8 years, just how this stuff works

When was the last time this WH owned up to anything?

Show me one sketch in 8 years from SNL or the Daily Show mocking Obama or pushing false narratives about Obama?

I won't wait up.

You don’t think SNL made fun of Obama at all? Just google SNL mocks Obama.

As far as false narratives FOX News had that covered more than well enough.

Not in a negative connotation, no.
this is a compilation of obama skits, there barely is one disrespectful humor towards him - they pick on his ticks, or speaking habits, but for example look at theRock Obama, or the Boehner clip
Barack Obama Collection from Saturday Night Live - NBC.com (http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/playlist/barack-obama-collection-208696)

Fox never has been what CNN used to be regarded as (which was a credible source for unbiased news). If you are accepting that CNN has become a politicized opinion based news channel, then fine, that is the basic premise behind this whole thread, that what used to be JOURNALISTIC institutions are now part and parcel of the political hack system of media.
