My wife came home from work and said "turn on a news station, there was a bombing in Manchester England." I turned on CNN and they were talking about Flynn, Trump and the latest Russia collusion "outrage".

Carr: Nothing to see here, folks

When you see the images of all major network in one view it is very weird to see a panel of badgers on CNN while other networks were covering the breaking news.

CNN even lost that touch of being a worldwide channel for breaking a major story!

Keep it up CNN as this way you guarantee that more smart people will see you for what this channel is about!

This time it was not a "source" breaking news which means that if it doesn't come from a "source" but Realiable breaking news, than for CNN it doesn't fit their narrative.

Let the CNN and President Trump bashers start to bash this thread and defend CNN... I can't wait to see the same impeach and collusion posts follow my OP.
Just curious, since you seem to have a hate going for CNN, why do you spend your time watching it, seems a bit strange to me?

It's time for a reality check, Bentbee. Donald J Trump is destroying his Presidency, not CNN, or MSNBC, or any other TV news program or newspaper. All they are doing is reporting what they see, and what most of us see.

You gotta ask yourself this question. Do you really think EVERY news organization in the world woke up one day and decided to gang up and hatch this plan to get rid of Donald Trump simply for NO REASON ? Why would that happen ? Why has it never happened before this ?

If Trump did not give them fuel for these fires, they would have nothing to report, but he keeps doing dumb s*** every day, and it makes it impossible for any intelligent human being to ignore that. There is no mass conspiracy here, simply good reporters getting out information that they are uncovering. You DO want this information available, don't you ?

Thank you for saying this. It's something I think, probably every time I read here.

I get that there is bias in media. I get that people think it's always left leaning. That may be true, I actually don't think we really know. But....we haven't yet turned into an autocracy. There is a *army* of well-connected, bottomless pits of money that are against liberalism, the Democrats, etc. They cannot be silenced or suppressed. If there was some conspiracy going on to out a wonderful president, it could easily be stopped.

This ridiculous notion that the left-leaning MSM can control, create, and subvert the truth is just crazy talk. Sure, they can slant news, but they can't bury truths but for so long.

The reason there is all this negative reporting is because the man does negative things that are just wrong. And then, even when it's possible that the media might be pushing something that's not proven, he doubles down and pretty much confirms that what they are saying is true. Trump has created the mess he's in ENTIRELY on his own. He gives the media these reporting gifts daily. To be truthful, they would be negligent in NOT reporting them.

The idea of this thread, believe it or not, is to deflect blame from the Muslims to CNN. Trump did not broker an arms deal with CNN.

For those of you who claim to have seen it wall-to-wall on CNN, perhaps you should have changed channels. Just because CNN declared it BREAKING doesn't mean that's what it was. It had already been reported elsewhere. BREAKING NEWS is one of the most overused and FALSE announcements ever foisted on viewers. Just because you didn't know doesn't make it BREAKING.

When I turned by CNN was on wall to wall coverage of the latest big event terrorist attack but at the turn of the hour with the shift change they teased that we also have something really big with the unsaid who knows maybe this story will jump start the coup d'etat

I disagree Blue Sunday.

I posted on the first page of this thread. I actively flipped between CNN, MSNBC and Fox. CNN was going on and on about Trump while the other two stations were covering the attack in Manchester. CNN did mention it for a scant minute or two but then went back to Trump. This was between 7:30 and 8:15 p.m. EST.
