As we’ve noted, Melania Trump wearing a jacket emblazoned with the words “I really don’t care, do U?” on her way to visit immigrant children in Texas that even leading Trump sycophant and CNSNews.com reporter Susan Jones called her out on it for being a “major distraction.” Even then, though, Jones played her sycophant role well; after dutifully quoting Melania’s spokesman saying that “I hope the media isn’t going to choose to focus on her wardrobe,” and adding, “Wrong! The media did indeed focus on her jacket and the odd message it sent.” She then quickly got back on message, declaring in the sixth paragraph of her article that she was “turning from her wardrobe to her actual words” and stayed focused on that for the remainder of her 24-paragraph article.
Meanwhile, Jones’ fellow CNS Trump sycophant, Melanie Arter, couldn’t manage even Jones’ perfunctory mention of the jacket despite its significance as a story. Arter wrote a 10-paragraph article on Melania’s visit that — in apparent accordance with her spokeswoman — make no mention whatsoever of the jacket and quoted only Melania’s communications director.
Content that conforms with what the Trump White House wants to see is how CNS rolls.
