At a major event for conservative Christians this morning, a Republican senator joked about praying for President Obama’s “days to be short.”
Sen. David Perdue, a freshman senator from Georgia, opened his remarks at the Faith & Freedom Coalition’s Road to Majority conference by encouraging attendees to pray for President Obama. But, he added in a joking tone, they need to pray for him in a very specific way: “We should pray for him like Psalms 109:8 says: Let his days be few, and let another have his office,” the senator said, smiling wryly.

CNN apologizes for producer’s joke about a Trump plane crash

CNN apologized and disciplined a producer who was caught on tape Thursday joking about Donald Trump’s plane crashing as it arrived in Indianapolis, a new report said Friday.

A video showed veteran CNN correspondent Suzanne Malveaux prepping for a live shot and talking to the unidentified producer as Team Trump was arriving to crow about a deal with air conditioner manufacturer Carrier to save about 800 jobs from moving to Mexico.


“If I do this, it means he’s landed,” the producer said. “That means his plane’s crashed — no, I’m kidding.”

The video showed Malveaux — who joined the network in 2002 — reacting with a stunned face but laughing at the remark.

“An unfortunate and inappropriate remark was made by one of our producers off camera yesterday,” a CNN rep said in a statement, Business Insider reported.

“We have apologized to the Trump transition team, and the producer has been disciplined.”

Trump routinely lambastes the media in general but has also singled out some outlets for verbal abuse, including CNN.

During a meeting with media bigs at Trump Tower last month, he went after CNN President Jeff Zucker for what the president-elect said was coverage that was biased against him.

Before your self-righteous butt breaks out in flames . . .

1) No one is arguing in defense of CNN here. Handled and over. Go have some coffee.

2) If you really want to hold up FOX as the gold standard, I've NO doubt someone with time to kill could dig up a mountain of inappropriate reporting.

3) We haven't had "news" in this country for 20 years, and the situation is going downhill from there, faster and faster.

Move on from faux-rage and get worked up over actual issues. A lot of them need solving.

That means doing something other than posting on discussion boards.

Go volunteer somewhere. They will be glad to see you.

ps your OP title is Can anyone cite when FOX...or any other network... made a joke like this about President Obama?
Now im pretty sure a couple of networks showed those clips of nugent, and purdue, and the fox :analyst: BUT if not...the man was a producer...not a host, or on air, just caught on tape(off air. There is a difference.
man you winners sure are whiny.

Let me ask you, a question....
sorta related...
Jill Stein goes thru the "proper channels" to get some recounts done in three states. She raises money to do so. Im not discussing her motives, or the "hillary made her do it" conspiracies, Im just talking about the "proper channels", to query the votes cast.
Donald Trump takes to twitter to say that he won the popular vote, because there were 3 million illegal voters. Where is his proof, where is his evidence, what is the source of his information?
He also said the election is rigged before it happened.
How many people will buy donalds tweet and think stein is in the wrong?? or maybe that he is just doing things "his way" and its not an issue?
