Trump supporters don't care about a host but what is said and what they bring across.

CNN spears so many lies that many voters already turned away from CNN to watch Amazon or Netflix.

CNN is not gaining anything as their hatred against Republicans doesn't win any viewers.
Where did they go, Disneyland?

CNN should realize that Trump voters could care less about sexual harassment. Many of them likely support it. How else could you explain their total unquestioned allegiance to Trump and Fox News, two entities long associated with sexual harassment. It also makes sense as to why Trump and Fox News seem to like each other so much. Peas of the same pod.

That's such an uncalled-for, nasty innuendo and faulty assumption, but perhaps this isn't the first time someone has told you that. Furthermore, just because someone is not a liberal or CNN booster doesn't automatically equate them to having unquestioned allegiance to Trump or another news network.

Like typical D voters who didn't care about Bill Clinton's political career of horn dog escapades, right?

Like a failing corporation, they sold themselves out to the highest bidder & now, pushing the partial narrative of their employer. I rely on independent, public forums like these for opinions from real people. I dont care what out of touch, overpaid 'experts', celebrities or past-their-glory shows like SNL have to say about politics & my middle class issues. They dont get me & vice versa.

These forums are also being infiltrated by paid trolls so eventually we will lose this platform as well. But there are always ways to reach to your neighbors & community to talk about their issues in person.
You mean people still know how to converse with each other? Maybe older people do but the younger generation, not so much unless it's screaming,crying or holding some pre-made sign.

I also find it funny how the MSM is absolutely gloating on their news shows this morning, running the story as a headline news report solemnly repeated (with obviously suppressed grins) every 15 minutes or so...
Maybe they hope that viewers might,maybe or hopefully return to their nightly spews programs?

They think their ratings might improve.

Do I have to choose?

Iran, Syria, North Korea, Venezuela, MS-13, healthcare, possible Supreme Court vacancy, Ed Murray sexual abuse allegations, etc...

The story is about O'Reilly a serial assaulter getting kicked and it is about some limited justice for the women involved. your trump supporters are far down the list of things people care about relative to this story. the hubris to think this has anything to do with trumpers is rather odd.
