CNN: Trees planted where our cameras caught Trump golfing

Source: The Hill, by Mallory Shelbourne


A CNN host said in a Saturday broadcast that trees have been placed where the network’s cameras once filmed President Trump playing golf at his Florida club.

“Yet today, CNN news cameras did not get any video of President Trump playing golf. And here’s why: where CNN cameras were once positioned, trees appear,” CNN host Ana Cabrera said during a newscast. “Yes, new trees are being planted there.”

The network charged a white truck appeared to have deliberately blocked their camera's view at the club earlier in the week. The Secret Service and the local sheriff's office denied use of the truck to hide Trump's golfing.

Trump has publicly feuded with CNN during the first year of his presidency, often denouncing the network as "fake news."

Trump has spent the holidays in Palm Beach, Fla., at his Mar-a-Lago resort, which he has dubbed the "winter White House.”

The president traveled to his Florida golf course on Sunday for the sixth day in a row.

Saplings aren’t going to block anything. I don’t even see how grown ones would unless they were evergreens, which don’t exactly flourish in Florida.

and then charging us as a security or privacy issue?

I wonder how many volumes of 'Freedom of Information Act' requests are already in the pipe? Here in Year One?
