‘Sad day for America’: Sky News host blasts CNN coverage of attempted Trump assassination

Sky News host Gabriella Power has slammed CNN for its initial coverage of the attempted assassination of former president Donald Trump.

Ms Power said: “If you were following media outlets like CNN today, you would have thought Donald Trump had a fall”.

A breaking CNN article included a headline which read: “Secret Service rushed Trump off stage after he falls at rally”.

“Falls? It was an assassination attempt. He’s not Joe Biden,” Ms Power said.

Ms Power said it was a “devastating day for America” and claimed there was likely to be growing support for the former president, following the attack.
