Glenn Greenwald: CNN’s refusal to admit how much disinformation they spread about the tragic death of Officer Sicknick is repugnant.

CNN's refusal to admit how much disinformation they spread about the tragic death of Officer Sicknick is repugnant. It's a lie to say they merely shared "what we suspected at the beginning." They stated as fact – over and over – that Sicknick was murdered with a fire extinguisher t.co/ioUUvbjvUV

Compare what CNN — in pretending to reckon with their Sicknick lies — said today to justify what they did: we merely shared "what we suspected at the beginning," to what they & MSNBC actually said and how. Then, after this, they switched to: "he was murdered with spray": pic.twitter.com/V6EPktUzOi
