Anyone who wants to stay informed and educated does not turn to CNN for the news.

I was not referring to you. So far I have seen nothing but truth in what you have posted on this site, as for those that make the claim that there is some vast media conspiracy the comment fits perfectly.

*shrug*

I'm sharing what I saw and made a point to say I had switched between three different channels over the course of 45 minutes. Perhaps I just happened to switch to CNN when they were chatting about Trump.

If people want to think I'm lying because I'm some Trump fan, go with it. I couldn't care less.

I see the OP is parrotting Hannity's views last night - he spent all of the first part of his show expounding on how much CNN had not covered the Manchester bombing in favor of covering the Trump-Russia goings-on.

This thread is a perfect example of how this forum is slowly losing its appeal for me. Too many idiotic threads with the same partisan posters arguing like children.

CNN had only done a two minute update on the explosion before going back to Trump. I can't speak for the coverage later in the evening.
Did the samething.

Those folks on the cooking shows too! How dare they make frijoles, when there is a tragedy afoot.

This is almost as immoral as using a horrible tragedy to advance one's political views.


No, but it says a lot about CNN if this is what they're doing.

CNN practicing the Saul Alinsky tactic of saying it long enough to make it believable. Saul Alinsky took a page out of Lucifer's playbook.
