CNN is still claiming that "Ohio election too close to call" on their front page. Once they finally have to admit that the blue wave failed to show up again, who will be blamed?

You took the truth right out of my mouth.

Wouldn't it be funny if all of the Alex Jones censorship bannings and fake news spin actually nudged the GOP turnout just enough to give them a win?

Yeah, I already pointed out the "too close to call" headlines. So who do you think they'll blame?

Wall Street Journal
Fox News
CNN
CBS News
MSNBC

These are the web sites that are claiming the Ohio race is still too cloe to call. The only people I see claiming victory is the GOP candidate and right wingers. Now he may eventually win thw race fair and square, but the point is tht a few of the C-D posters were trashing CNN for saying the race was too close to call when so far I can't find a news source giving victory to anyone at 2;15 am EST

Can you point out to me where you said "Fox News is still claiming that Ohio election too close to call" on their front page. Once they finally have to admit that the blue wave failed to show up again, who will be blamed? I only see where you mentioned CNN and then you and another poster started calling them "trash" for not giving the victory to the GOP when actually no media outlet that I have seen so far is giving the GOP the win.

Well if you really believe that, you should buy shares of "democrats to win OH special election" Which party will win 2018 House of Rep special election in Ohio's 12th district? which are currently trading for only 5 cents per share, as opposed to 95 cents for republicans. If it's really "too close to call", 5 cents per share is an absolute steal of an investment.

Since you have more confidence in the tabloid media than the investors, go ahead and demonstrate your faith with your own money, and let us know how many shares you bought.

Oh, sorry. I didn't realize that if I quote someone, I was supposed to check all of the major networks for similar statements and list all of the ones with matching claims.

If I really believe what?

And I don't get the last line either? Where did I say I believed the "tabloid media?" I just pointed out that no one that I csn find is calling the race for either candidate. They're all saying the race is "too close to call" as of 2:27 am, but you trashed only CNN for saying it was too close to call. I'm not sure you know what you're talking about.

You should have actually if you're going to trash ne network for calling the race too close to call when at least five others including Fox and the Journal was also saying the same thing. I don't care what you think of CNN. I never watch them myself. It's about you trashing one news source for doing what the rest were also doing.

ABC News was the other one calling it too close. Six total news networks, but you only bashed one of them.
