'Hopelessly broken' CNN buried by critics for 'sane washing' Trump's Greenland rants

  • Multiple critics called out CNN this week for purportedly normalizing President-elect Donald Trump's idea of "buying" Greenland, invading Panama and possibly even Canada. Trump spent this past weekend ranting about the high costs of ships passing through the Panama Canal and declared that it's such a ripoff that the United States should take back

The article from MSN discusses the backlash CNN received for its coverage of former President Donald Trump's comments about buying Greenland. Critics accused CNN of "sane-washing" Trump's remarks, suggesting that the network portrayed his statements as more rational or less controversial than they were perceived to be. During a segment on CNN, anchor John King and political commentator David Chalian discussed Trump's interest in Greenland, framing it within the context of Trump's broader foreign policy and real estate ambitions. However, viewers and media critics argued that CNN minimized the eccentricity and potential diplomatic insensitivity of Trump's proposal, thereby normalizing his behavior. This has led to accusations that CNN is attempting to rehabilitate Trump's image ahead of the 2024 election, despite his history of controversial statements and actions.
