CNN recently retracted its use of “digitally altered” images featuring former President Donald Trump and Laura Loomer in multiple broadcasts. The network had acknowledged the error after Loomer shared a video of the retraction on X.
“Friday evening and on Saturday, CNN aired a number of segments that briefly showed an image of former President Donald Trump and Laura Loomer taken from social media,” CNN hosts stated.
“On review, this image had been digitally altered by a third party and should not have been included. We regret the error,” the network added.
Loomer criticized CNN host Anderson Cooper for sending a female colleague to apologize and demanded a written retraction, threatening legal action if it wasn’t issued.
“If you do not issue a retraction in writing on X for showing fake and photoshopped pics of me and President Trump in an effort to spew a sick, misogynistic, and defamatory attack against me, I will sue you, the same way I’m going to sue @billmaher,” Loomer wrote.
“How much of a coward do you have to be to use fake pics to defame me and @realDonaldTrump and then not apologize yourself? Issue a retraction in writing and on air or else you’re getting sued,” Loomer added.
