Loomer'

'CNN issued an on-air retraction and admitted to using “digitally
altered” photos of former President Donald Trump and right-wing activist
and influencer Laura Loomer.

In a post on X, Loomer shared a video of CNN issuing a retraction after
CNN hosts, such as Anderson Cooper, used a “digitally altered” photo of
Trump and Loomer in “a number of segments” on Friday and Saturday.

“Friday evening and on Saturday, CNN aired a number of segments that
briefly showed an image of former President Donald Trump and Laura
Loomer taken from social media,” the CNN host said. “On review, this
image had been digitally altered by a third party and should not have
been included. We regret the error.'

'In another post, Loomer criticized Cooper for “sending a female
colleague” to apologize for defaming her and Trump.'

'“If you do not issue a retraction in writing on X for showing fake and
photoshopped pics of me and President Trump in an effort to spew a sick,
misogynistic, and defamatory attack against me, I will sue you, the same
way I’m going to sue @billmaher,” Loomer wrote in her post. “How much of
a coward do you have to be to use fake pics to defame me and
@realDonaldTrump and then not apologize yourself? Issue a retraction in
writing and on air or else you’re getting sued.”'

Regret my *ss. They did it knowingly and on purpose. And the rest of
the media will bury it.
