For the last several weeks, CNN has been providing a live on-screen “fact check” of Donald Trump’s statements.
They seem to have gotten a little carried away. On Thursday, for example, CNN decided to “fact check” Trump’s suggestion that President Obama was the “founder” of the terrorist group ISIS.
Some critics argued that fact-checking such a claim (which Trump himself said was “sarcastic”) was an example of “autistic literalism” that is rarely applied to other politicians not named Donald Trump.
What if CNN decided to apply the same treatment to President Obama, Hillary Clinton, and other Democratic politicians?
