During President Donald Trump’s ongoing trip to Great Britain, he had the misfortune of observing CNN’s international coverage and was far from pleased with their deceptive and misleading coverage.
Just arrived in the United Kingdom. The only problem is that @CNN is the primary source of news available from the U.S. After watching it for a short while, I turned it off. All negative & so much Fake News, very bad for U.S. Big ratings drop. Why doesn’t owner @ATT do something?

He was so offended by the fake news giving a dishonest portrayal about U.S. affairs that he took to Twitter to urge a consumer boycott of its parent company, AT&T.
I believe that if people stoped using or subscribing to @ATT, they would be forced to make big changes at @CNN, which is dying in the ratings anyway. It is so unfair with such bad, Fake News! Why wouldn’t they act. When the World watches @CNN, it gets a false picture of USA. Sad!
