'Just put on a red hat': CNN segment on latest Trump tactic spurs 'sanewashing' uproar

Raw Story  

A CNN correspondent faced criticism of "sanewashing" Monday as she reported on former President Donald Trump's controversial decision to campaign in regions of Georgia devastated by Hurricane Helene. Reporter Kristen Holmes on Monday detailed Trump's visit to Valdosta where he delivered supplies, a campaign speech and what she described as a "message of unity" — despite his incorrect claim that President Joe Biden was missing in action. While Holmes noted Trump has spent the past days "slamming" Vice President Kamala Harris, she did not report on Trump's false claims about Biden. "Holmes did not mention Trump’s false comments from earlier on September 30 that Kemp is 'having a hard time getting the president on the phone' and that Biden is being 'very nonresponsive,'" Hagle wrote.
