US EditionTrump calls for firing of CNN reporter over Iran nuclear damage report
- On Wednesday at a NATO summit, President Donald Trump criticized CNN reporter Natasha Bertrand and called for her firing over her coverage of U.S. airstrikes on Iran's nuclear sites.
- His criticism came after CNN published an early Pentagon intelligence assessment indicating that the strikes likely delayed Iran's nuclear program by only a few months, emphasizing that the evaluation was preliminary and had low confidence.
- Trump cited pilots' precision, called the targets obliterated, and referenced Iranian sources saying the sites were completely destroyed, while CNN maintained the assessment could change with more intelligence.
- Trump wrote on Truth Social that Bertrand should be immediately reprimanded and fired, accusing her of spreading fake news and damaging the reputation of U.S. military pilots.
- The White House and allies condemned the leak of the assessment, declared the strikes a major success, and affirmed support for the military, while CNN stood 100% behind Bertrand's reporting.
