So CNN says there is no Constitutional right to lie?

So can we send every politician in Washington to jail?

Update:

No one called her one it.

Update 2:

@Truthseekeer sorry, that is not what the lady (Jennifer Rodgers) said, she said there was no right to lie, and was not called on it.

Update 3:

@Curtis 1911 - I guess CNN lied then.  Whoda thunk it?

    There's no right to KNOWINGLY spread lies to a mass audience, especially LIES that widen the divides in America. And that has been the whole problem. Republicans have become the party of liars and cheaters and it happened years before Trump. Trump just made it ten times worse.

    We elect those lying cockroaches. I have always said, if ONE ever lies to us, they should IMMEDIATELY be fired. No litigation, no backing off what they did, no recourse they do it they are GONE first time. Not necessarily jail, although I feel it IS a breach of their solemn pledge. But hey, I do not know of ANY government official that does not lie. Even the cops, the biggest liars, thieves, and criminals there are in our society. (I do not know a single cop who does not have a firearm that was confiscated and NOT returned to the rightful owner. Most cops have many)

    What shall we call it when those entrusted to uphold our laws are the ones who break them the most ?

    Will there be enough room with everyone at CNN there, too? We can put Anderson Cooper and Don Lemon in the same cell together.

    Ewwww I bet they’d love that.
