I watch CNN quite a bit. I find their news more reliable than the b/s coming out of the White House. After watching Trump's train wreck of a press conference where the real Trump emerged and showed the world the racist that he obviously is, I say CNN's coverage has been accurate, more power to them.

There is an old saying that Trump should take heed of, "It is better to say nothing and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt".

Did you right wingers hate CNN when they played cheerleader in the run up to the Iraq War?

This is where my dog and cat go to stay well informed. My conservative friends are as well informed as my pets according to 2 university studies.

How are you a fascist if you are anti fascist? As for shutting down free speech that seems to be what Trump is trying to do by calling the media fake news/liars and scum of the earth,must not listen to CNN. so where do you get your news from? .
While CNN may have some bias in its opinion segments its still a good source of news.

Please. As Huey Long ironically said it:


Sure, We’ll Have Fascism in This Country, and We’ll Call It Anti-Fascism

CNN doesn't have an "alt left" bias. They just don't have an extreme right bias, which in the minds of conservatives now equals a liberal bias.

I peruse it along with many other sources. I don't have just one or two.

What cracks me up is when you people think Infowars, Breitbart, FOX, Town Hall, etc. aren't biased and "telling you how to think."

The point, people, is that ALL media comes with some bias. That is why you're supposed to consume lots of it from varied sources and use your brain to critically interpret the information you're being given.

I never really paid much attention before the whole Trump thing. But now I "get it". CNN is not news. CNN is an ultra-left presentation. Now I can't even watch for 2 seconds unless it's something like a hurricane that they're covering. Anything to do with politics is going to be a lecture on how they want me to think, so I change the channel.
I've mostly stopped watching or reading material from the Fake News industry. Occasionally I do just to see the lies they're going with at the moment but I pretty much can predict the lies they are going to say before they make them up.
