While this is serious and they should know better. The right seem to be suffering from amnesia as this was par for the course during the Obama years . Where there was not an anti Obama story or anti Obama conspiracy they would no publish or promote .And even Trump himself has promoted fake stories and conspiracies . So no Trump and his cronies don't get to be high and mighty now .
Who made these Obama stories? Fox News? Rush Limbaugh? If you want to admit that CNN is on the same level as these, then you're correct that this shouldn't be a big deal. The difference is that you guys want to think that CNN is on a higher level of credibility than the others. In that case, yes, this is newsworthy.
"You guys"
To me CNN lost their credibility in their election coverage. Their obvious pro-Hillary (and anti-Sanders) agenda plus the way they handled Wikileaks ("its illegal for you viewers to look at the leaks yourself so the only way you can hear or see what they're about is through us")
But at the same time, just because CNN reports something does not automatically make it fake news like so many Trump supporters believe.
