CNN has always been extremely biased towards the left, and are especially friendly and helpful with the Clinton's. I stopped ever even turning them on when they hired the biggest racist in America, Al Sharpton, to be a commentator. At that point, whatever little credibility they had went right out the window. Only MSNBC is more left leaning than CNN and that's hard to do.

I am not a Trump supporter and even I feel that CNN's non-stop criticism of Trump is over the top.

Can you just imagine the uproar if Hillary said "if he wasn't my son-in-law I'd date him." Or "A man can't be a 10 if he's bald."

He's sexist, and our society is still sexist enough that Trump supporters don't mind his sexist comments, even if they are women themselves or have wives and daughters.
Unfortunately for Hillary, sexism works both ways, and her constantly beating up on men as women haters and pretending there is a war on women will probably cost her the election. She's losing the male vote by far more than Trump is losing the female vote. I think she forgot that men make up a huge percentage of the voting population.

It's taken over 200 years for a woman to become the presumptive nominee of a major party in the U.S. and you think there's been a fair playing field for women?

I still think Trump will lose this election because of the female vote. No self-respecting woman would vote for him unless she has total blinders on.

And if they do like they did with Obama they will continue this until election and then congratulate themselves they got another jerk elected. When I worked I didn't have enough time to see other news so the people have no clue what they are spouting is a bunch of garbage and lies. I hear many news sources now and cannot stand to watch CNN at all for more than a few minutes until they become so off the wall they raise my blood pressure. I have decided CNN is bad for my health.

Better a jerk than a person with a severe personality disorder and most likely dementia.

So Fox News is objective, fair and balanced? Don't think they lean a teensy bit rightward?

I agree with you. I'm only pointing out that Hillary's strategy has always been to pin one group against another. In fact, that straight out of the democratic play book. It may very well cost her the election this time because men in general are pretty tired of her hate rhetoric against men. And by the way, very few self respecting men will vote for a man hating feminist like Hillary.

I never mentioned fox news as that was not what this thread is about. Fox news was the first right leaning news organization. That's why their ratings are better than CNN and MSNBC combined.
