In reply to the discussion: cnn may ban kellyanne conway permanently due to lack of credibility [View all]NoGoodNamesLeft
(2,056 posts)28. I think this would be good to ban her as a guest
Obviously they will still cover what she says and expose her "alternative facts," but they should not allow her to use their network as a means to spread misinformation and lies. That's all she does. This is also exactly how to get under Trump's skin. He LOVES attention. The less attention he and his band of idiots get the better...it pisses him off. This is how the press can remind him he needs to respect the 1st Amendment and freedom of the press. They are free to NOT show his crap on TV. Nothing upsets Trump more than getting no attention.

I disagree. There is no information to be gained by interviewing her on any subject.

It was Reuters. They said to treat the Trump administration like a foreign dictatorship.

Twice before. There was a third interview where she said it. She's just a pile of fake news.

Hope it is so. We are already bombarded with alternative facts from this rouge administration.

Banning Conway is lazy. Keep her on as much as possible and call out her lies and idiocy.
