CNN’s Erin Burnett Apologizes for Saying ‘F*cking Mexican’ On Air While Reading Alleged Trump Quote
CNN’s Erin Burnett apologized to viewers Tuesday night while reading part of a report from The Atlantic in which it was claimed former President Donald Trump complained about picking up the cost for a deceased soldier’s funeral and referred to her as “a fucking Mexican.”
On Tuesday’s edition of OutFront, Burnett discussed at length a new piece from The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg. Goldberg claimed to have spoken with sources who said Trump questioned why his generals could not be loyal to him in the way Hitler’s were.

I caught a few minutes of "Deadline: White House" on MSNBC earlier and Nicole Wallace said her producer didn't want her to read that quote (which she read anyway).

Ana Navarro also said "fucking Mexican' in a segment on Anderson Cooper's show. She wasn't bleeped.

This is garbage. Exact quotes from political candidates should be quoted verbatim. Every single word should be reported as said.

MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace shamelessly read the “fucking” article, explaining that the Atlantic piece was too newsworthy to play cutesy poo games with. However, her bald, military guest said that it was unprincipled to repeat in front of the little league team he was coaching while part of her panel.

This was basically Nicolle’s reasoning behind her uncensored moment.

I’d be more outraged that a former President of the United States not only said this, but stiffed a soldier’s family on funeral costs he promised to pay for.
But that’s just me.

Even worse R14, the victim's sister said she voted FOR Trump. This man said that shit about your sister and family and you'd still vote for him. Awful.

On Kaitlan Collins' show a clip of Trump meeting with Vanessa Guillen's family was played. Trump mentions paying for her funeral and someone ( sound like a male probably the dad) said they thought the military was going to cover the costs. My take is Trump agreed to cover the costs thinking it was going to be around the common 8 to 12k price range that is common for funerals. He probably figured 8 to 12k range funeral would be an ok price to appear to be "sympathetic" to a young murdered veteran's family. Somehow the funeral expense ballooned to 60k and Trump wasn't fucking having it.

It's a cult! They'll still be singing Trump's praises as they're being shovelled into the ovens or forcibly deported.

Yeah… I read that too r19, after going down the X-hole at Nicolle’s comments. It’s remarkable she makes the argument about her right to vote for whatever piece of shit she wants versus please don’t disrespect her sister’s death.

The sister and other dipshits voting for Trump are pretty much ignoring the J6 events, the election denialism, and other awful shit Trump has done. The sister is proving that she doesn't give a shit about Brian Sicknick and the LEOs who were injured on J6. J6 is unforgivable.

Why would any of the backlash be at any of the people reporting it and not you know the dick head who said it. What a f***** up country this is and there's probably really no hope as long as people are stupid enough to follow supposed leaders like that piece of s***. There isn't it a hell painful enough for these dumb m************.

Is media guilty of 'Trump Derangement Syndrome'? Profane reporting on unconfirmed Trump sparks controversy.

I do too.
This is a direct quote from a man who was a former President of the United States.
If he can say it, then the media should be able to repeat it.
Why are they trying to protect this fucking asshole Trump?
EXPOSE HIM for the vile pig that he is.

Kaitlan Collins also said "effing". I'm wondering if CNN quickly advised her to say fucking because of Erin and Ana Navarro saying it in the previous programs.

No r31, this is the man who had multiple contacts with foreign leaders, conducting US foreign affairs after he was out of office. He also had multiple COVID test machines sent for Putin’s own personal use at the height of the pandemic.

There's an immigrant family in my neighborhood whose front yard has a big-ass Trump/Vance AND Ted Cruz sign it. Along with six cars in the driveway and enough junk in the yard to have a sale--not to mention the house looks like crap and kids are running around it all day.
You gotta love Texas.

Goddamn, that Ana Navarro was on FIRE!
She is so clear, succinct, and just gets to the fucking point.
I absolutely loved what she had to say about John Kelly and Donald Trump in the Twitter clip at R39.
The clip was only 2+ minutes long, but boy did she say a lot in that short amount of time.

What I see homes with outrageous Trump displays, I remind myself that "The overabundance of right-wing extremist nuts we see in Texas is not reflective of the nation as a whole."
They've pumped up the crazy on Nextdoor and other social media, too.. Some of the gems I've read this week include, "I'm happily casting my vote for the felon and hillbilly," "Trump is the only candidate that can be trusted,""Kamala is a Kommie," and "They're rigging it again, just like they did in 2020." It's unbelievable how one man's delusion has effectively brainwashed so many people. True cult-like behavior.
