Leavitt Blasts CNN to Its Face: “You’re Being Disingenuous” Over Iran Strike Coverage
U.S. strikes on Iran, Leavitt accused the network of twisting the administration’s words to make the president look bad. When host Kaitlan Collins pressed her with a particular spin on what the secretary had said, Leavitt fired back: “That's not what the secretary said, Kaitlan. And that's not what the secretary meant, and you know it. You know you're being disingenuous.” Then she widened the charge to the media as a whole: “The press only wants to make the president look bad. That's a fact... Especially you and especially CNN.”
