Donald Trump is continuing his war on journalism and CNN in particular. He took to Twitter to post an unsettling and perplexing video of himself from a 2007 WWE fight in which the reality star turned president throws WWE Chairman Vince McMahon to the ground and repeatedly punches him. The video Trump posted to social media features the CNN logo imposed over McMahon's face. Trump posted the edited video along with the hashtags "#FraudNewsCNN #FNN." You can watch the video above. Brian Stelter of CNN tweeted that the edited video was first created and posted to a Reddit thread four days ago. One of the top comments in the thread reads "CNN IS ISIS."

Brian Stelter, who is CNN's Senior Media Correspondent, also posted a statement from the news organization responding to the disturbing video. The statement read:
