CNN on TV and CNN in printed version are two different news agencies essentially. Plus, journalist standards on TV are quite different (and generally much lower) than those in printed news. TV is a more, let's say, mainstream-oriented format for news delivering, it is aimed at a different (less educated, less critical, etc.) group of people.
If you want to criticize CNN as a whole, or CNN as a TV station, then this is hardly a thread for that. We are talking about a specific article here.
