Press Sec. Kayleigh McEnany said "Paw Patrol," was canceled. It was NOT. (Besides, it's a cartoon about helpful dogs - not cops). Maybe the White House confused it w/ "Pa Patrol," i.e. when Jed Clampett roamed around his "Beverly Hillbillies" manse. CBS canceled that in 1971.

Today is my 40th anniversary at the world's first all news tv operation. It's called CNN. I am the first to hit that mark. Ted Turner's dream is now busy covering perhaps the biggest story since we went on the air June 1st 1980. I began in the lobby of the World Trade Center

Still a packed room but rare to be able to grab a seat during Pres. Rouhani’s presser. This year attention is elsewhere as Secretary of State Pompeo is also having a press conference and acting DNI testimony is happening all at once! #UNGA
