I do not think it has ever got to the stage where three journalist resign, all at once, at a well known branded news organisation.
Well no but that's because this time they actually did print a bogus story and had to face the consequences. Proper journalists generally do not make up news. It doesn't occasionally happen, i.e totally fabrications, and they're fired or resigned when caught.
But not always which brings us too...

Project Veritas. This guy has a known history for selective editing and distortion.
The videos were recorded during the summer of 2009 and appeared to show low-level ACORN employees in six cities providing advice to Giles and O'Keefe on how to avoid detection by authorities of tax evasion, human smuggling and child prostitution. He framed the undercover recordings with a preface of him dressed in a "pimp" outfit, which he also wore in TV media interviews. This gave viewers, including the media, the impression that he had dressed that way when speaking to ACORN workers. However, he actually entered the ACORN offices in conservative street clothes (the sleeve of his dress shirt is visible on camera). Furthermore, the ACORN employees involved reported his activities to the police after he left. O'Keefe selectively edited and manipulated his recordings of ACORN employees, as well as distorted the chronologies. Several journalists and media outlets have expressed regret for not properly scrutinizing and vetting his work.

On March 8, 2011, shortly before the US Congress was to vote on funding for National Public Radio (NPR), O'Keefe released a video of a discussion with Ronald Schiller, NPR's senior vice president for fundraising, and associate Betsy Liley. Raw content was secretly recorded by O'Keefe's partners Ken Larrey and Shaughn Adeleye.
Due to questions at the time about the video's authenticity, staff of The Blaze analyzed the edited portion and compared it with the raw videotape, both of which were released simultaneously. As blogger Scott Baker wrote, analysis of the full video showed that a portion was seemingly edited to intentionally lie or mislead. Much of the context of the conversation was changed and elements were transposed and chronology shifted.
So I would wait for the full video/story of his meeting with the CNN guy.

I can see there is obvious editing but I cannot see how it can be denied that he (The CNN Producer), never said those things in the video, when he was asked specific questions, and even being quite flippant about News broadcasting ethics and that in his opinion, saying Russia swung the election, but we swing theirs.' and claiming the CIA manipulating foreign governments, i.e rig their elections.

I think he probably said it. The swing elections thing isn't a unheard of view although if the US did swing Russian elections they're doing a poor job of it.

The point here is it's going to get worse. The youth of today rely on social media and that's where the opportunity exists to influence them.
It is like an accident waiting to happen and it will.
Just when you think he can't do anything more stupid....

The US President has tweeted a short video clip of him wrestling a person with the CNN logo for a head.
The clip is an altered version of Donald Trump's appearance at a WWE wrestling event in 2007, in which he "attacked" franchise owner Vince McMahon in a scripted appearance.
The animation appears to have been posted to a pro-Trump internet forum earlier in the week.
CNN later accused the president of inciting violence against the media.
One panellist on ABC's morning show, Ana Navarro - a Republican Trump critic and CNN contributor - said "it is an incitement to violence. He is going to get somebody killed in the media."
