CNN building in New York witnessed reactions of American Turks about the channel's way of broadcasting Gezi Park events on Saturday. Following "Everything for Turkey" rally on Saturday in Manhattan's Foley Park, American Turks gathered at Central Park in New York. Thereafter they marched towards CNN's building with banners in their hands in support of Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Criticizing CNN's way of broadcasting Gezi Park events, they left a black wreath, "Turkish public will never forget CNN's manipulation" written on it in front of the building. Among the banners carried, there was one that referred to CNN International correspondent's going off the air by saying "CNN show is over" to Erdogan's advisor Ibrahim Kalin on June 12. Following the reading of a statement that expressed the condemning of CNN, the group marched back to The Times Square with the slogan "Liar CNN". On the other hand, an opponent group arrived in front of CNN building and opened a banner written "Thanks CNN, but we need more", supporting the channel's Taksim broadcasts.
