    • CNN = fake news. LOLchukkaphob

    • CNN lost a lot of credibility during this last cycle, that's for sure. Then again, so did MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC, etc.vero_vandal
    • When someone on Twitter asked Nancy, 76, if the Sinatra family is OK with the businessman-turned-p... using her father's song, she tweeted back,kona
    • “Just remember the first line of the song.”

      The first line is “And now, the end is near.”      kona
    • From memory she just mentioned something about what the first line of the song was. That doesn't = unhappy. Shit, she might be getting royalties from it.BuddhaHat
    • I guess it all depends. Do you think she meant it jokingly or do you think she was insinuating the end is near with Trump as President?kona
    • It's hard to tell since Nancy has since deleted the post and is now vocal that it was just a joke.kona
    • It is hard to tell, but regardless CNN seems guilty of misrepresentation, as the words 'Not happy' never happened. CNN does this regularly, and it's lame.BuddhaHat
    • First guess is Paul Anka gets the royalties as he wrote the song. Which is why Trump wanted Anka to sing (presumably the song) at the inhoguration.kona

    • He always thought that song was self-serving and self-indulgent."

      Wow. Self-serving and self-indulgent. Maybe it should have been sung for Trump. It's perfect.      kona
    • bah... I can't type. Tina Sinatra.kona
    • They gave Piers Morgan a show ffs, and the human Furby Wolf Blitzer is still around, ffs. I WISH they had more credibility, but they don't.BuddhaHat
    • she also said his policies were scary. she's just trying to stay positive while knowing the world is falling down around usscarabin
    • Trump has done a lot of good in opening people's eyes to the bullshit and lies of mainstream media. Can't take that away from him.set
    • she called trump a bigotlowimpakt
