and was unhurt. Sean Hannity, who was hosting the town hall Thursday night, served up the incident as the first topic of the long Q & A session.“I want to start with the current president … did you see the video of when he fell?” Hannity began, diverging from a longstanding journalistic tradition of leading with the most important and relevant information.But Trump failed – at least by his own standards – to capitalize on the opportunity to trash and smear opponent.
Rather than repeat half-baked nicknames, hurl insults or swamp his response with wild historical superlatives, Trump instead mused about why presidents can’t be seen falling onstage – even bringing his own lived experience in for a frame of reference.“Not too good. It’s sad.
It’s sad,” Trump said, shaking his head. “You become president and you’re sort of not allowed to do that, but it’s happened.
It’s happened. And it’s happened pretty badly.
We won’t go into it. But we all know the ones and … they count those acts, they never forget but … that was a bad fall.”Hannity’s naked efforts to get Trump to bash Biden’s physical vigor then backfired bigly as the host pivoted to Trump’s own near-slip moment in 2020, when the then-president was seen walking gingerly down a ramp after delivering a speech at West Point.Broaching the West Point moment by making excuses for it, Hannity said: “I remember th media made som much … I think you wee at West Point at the time, you were coming down a ramp, it didn’t have a rail, you had dress shoes on … which have very slippery soles … .”Distracted by Hannity’s open invitation to talk about himself, Trump quickly veered off the prescribed course before he was able to level any criticisms at Biden.“[Dress shoes] look a little

Former President Donald Trump offered up his usual barrage of unfounded claims and falsehoods during his interview with Fox News’ Bret Baier Monday night, but the co-hosts of ABC’s The View want to set the record straight about one in particular.

AFP, while three of the video’s images are verifiably real, another three “have the hallmarks of AI-generated imagery.”Furthermore, three media forensics experts told AFP the images in question sport the characteristics of AI imagery.The images are used as part of an ad attempting to portray Donald Trump as a weakling incapable of getting rid of Fauci despite his years hosting “The Apprentice” and “Celebrity Apprentice,” wherein he routinely “fired” people.Donald Trump became a household name by FIRING countless people *on television*But when it came to Fauci… pic.twitter.com/7Lxwf75NQmAs for how experts are contrasting real imagery against fake, it’s all in the details. Beyond the fundamentally hard-to-believe nature of imagery such as Trump kissing Fauci on the cheek, the three images being scrutinized as AI-generated are exceptionally glossy (a hallmark of computer-generated renders), unrealistically posed, sport inaccurate background details and feature unexplainable blurs in key details such as Trump’s hair.However, even with the arguably overwhelming evidence that these images are not real, the experts AFP spoke with struggled to guarantee that there wasn’t a chance the images were, in fact, real.
Daniel D'Addario Chief TV Critic The departure of CNN’s Chris Licht, following his turbulent year atop the cable news network, places a pause on one of the great media stories of the decade so far. But even non-media-junkies can appreciate just how strange and how strenuously rocking had been Licht’s time at the network: It played out across screens. The trouble with being the place that invented the 24-hour news cycle is that those hours can come back to bite when you’re the story. There it was in politics, when Donald Trump’s “Town Hall,” with purported rising star Kaitlan Collins, gear-shifted into the first televised rally of the 2024 presidential cycle — with CNN’s air being used to depict an audience of Trump supporters cheering on his jibes. (No less an eminence than Christiane Amanpour, a CNN icon, registered her dissent in public.) There it was on the business pages, with Licht’s overseeing the dismantling of streaming product CNN+, on orders from Warner Bros. Discovery head David Zaslav, setting the tone for his tenure. There it was at the Oscars, when Michelle Yeoh used her best actress acceptance speech to rebuke anchor Don Lemon’s bizarre on-air comments about a woman’s “prime” years. There it was in the gossip pages, after a Variety story about Lemon’s comportment toward his female co-anchors on the network’s flagship morning show, and then his ouster, leaked into the tabloids, and never seemed to be countered by any good news about the network. And, finally, there it was at length, with an all-access profile by the Atlantic’s Tim Alberta revealing Licht’s contempt for predecessor Jeff Zucker and the depths of his disdain for and, frankly, confusion about CNN’s mission.

David Zaslav handpicked Licht last April to replace Jeff Zucker, the successful but divisive longtime CNN leader ousted after disclosing an affair with one of his direct reports.
