Should Millennials buy Snapchat stock? - Mar. 1, 2017

I just love how the first story on CNN is click-bait for buying Snapchat stock.

One wonders if there a motivation behind CNN trying to get millennials to buy certain stocks rather then just general information.

They are plummeting rapidly so trying to save themselves by selling ads.

Hey guys, that link is for money.cnn.com

If you go to CNN.com, you don't see that story anywhere. Way to go.....OP.

Luckygal, way to go for not verifying the OP's claims, because you really fell for it. This is what happens when you don't fact check, or in the OP's case, not checking your URLs before you post

They will be just fine. A president going after the press is just what Nixon tried to do. Didn't happen though because people knew exactly what he was doing. Nixon was trying to deflect just like Trump. If we have learned nothing else from history....we have learned the press is important...because they are the eyes and ears for the people and they report back to us. Without the press we would have no idea what is going on in the white house. Why do you think Trump is trying to turn everyone against them except those who praise him

I see a lot of E-trade articles on the FOX business website. It makes you wonder.

Oh please. Today's so called media is nothing like the media back then. Nowadays, if you bother to watch, they have a panel of former bureaucrats, most of whom are from the Clinton/Obama administrations (in other words, opposed to Trump and biased) that chime in on everything Trump says or does. Sometimes even things he doesn't say or do.

Instead of being objective, they almost always go on the offensive against Trump. That is not reporting the news, that is giving commentary/editorial on the news and framing it from their angles.

Trump is not "going after the press" but more like setting the record straight and calling them out for their bias.

CNN is pretty much just a tabloid now.
But since the Trump/media "breakup" along with being called out for their Trump obsession from talk show hosts and other journalist, it does appear that CNN is backing off a bit.
