"What The F*ck!": Rescued Woman Blasts CNN For Exploiting Hurricane Harvey Victims

Earlier today, CNN anchor Rosa Flores apparently chose the wrong mom to exploit in her futile effort to boost CNN ratings.


While it"s unclear exactly what happened off-air in the moments leading up to this interview, it became clear very quickly that this "shivering cold" mother of two exhausted children had no appetite for Flores shoving a "microphone in her face" to get a couple of sound bites for Jim Acosta"s show.





"We walked through four feet of water to get food on the first day.  Yeah, that’s a lot of shit.”



“But y’all sit here, y’all trying to interview people during their worst times — like that’s not the smartest thing to do. Like people are really breaking down and y’all sitting here with cameras and microphones trying to ask us what the fuck is wrong with us."



"And you really trying to understand with the microphone still in my face? With me shivering cold, with my kids wet, and you still putting the microphone in my face."





Not surprisingly, Kellyanne Conway immediately took to twitter to shame CNN for the failed interview.




Of course, even though Conway"s tweet will be dismissed as a cheap shot, it does seem somewhat obvious from the jump that this mom is exhausted beyond belief and probably slightly more interested in finding some dry clothes for herself and her children than sharing her feelings with CNN.  That said, maybe we"re just really good at picking up on subtle social cues...


Meanwhile, the whole episode left Jim Acosta noticeably "triggered"...

In Blistering Interview, Conway Tells Chuck Todd "We Are Going To Have To Rethink Our Relationship With The Press"

To members of the mainstream media, it would appears "size matters", as the Inauguration crowd-gate debacle continues following Sean Spicer"s unusual press conference yesterday. During a combative interview this morning with NBC"s Chuck Todd, Trump top advisor Kellyanne Conway blasted media "falsehoods," crushing Todd"s "size" issues by noting that "Presidents aren"t judged by crowd sizes at their inauguration, they"re judged by their accomplishments."



But Conway was not done with the "Meet The Press" anchor yet, as she cornered him, noting this was just more evidence of the unfair and biased treatment of the Trump administration by the media:





"We"re going to have to rethink our relationship with the press...



Yesterday, we allowed the press into the Oval Office to witness the signing of executive orders and what happens almost immediately - a falsehood is told about removing the bust of Martin Luther King Jr - that"s just flat-out false."



"I"m thrilled that all of a sudden NBC News and Chuck Todd is so focused on covering crowd control, because we were mocked daily for talking about the historic significance of the size of the crowds at our rallies during the campaign... on great days were ignored, and on most days we were mocked."



"You want the American people to think they can"t trust The White House press secretary, that"s a very dangerous statement to make. Your job is to report the news, not to give your opinion, you"re not an opinion columnist."



...you"ve got a 14% approval rating, that you"ve earned..."



And Todd"s response...





"...you attack us [the media] with some weird Twitter feed that you guys are obsessed with."
