What is the point of your post? Let's assume that CNN is totally discredited, does it discredit the misreporting from many many other news agencies re: Trump and Russia. Or does it discredit the actual FBI investigation in the Trump campaign and their Russian connections? You seem to use CNN as some catch all boogeymen for all the bad news Russia Trump receives from a myriad of sources.

there is no trump russia connection, there never was.

what investigation? seriously.

feel like chiming in on the veracity of the statements made in the video in the op? or continue in this off topic diversion.

why are you bringing up fox, you guys love to quote people and say diversion diversion diversion when youre trying to derail a conversation thats damning to your liberal agenda but here is a total red herring that is literally irrelevant.

well played?

the title of this thread is "the fall of CNN" which is complete bullshit and you know it. CNN isn't going anywhere and their ratings aren't going to change much. Fox is CNNs current peer and dealt with a lot more scandals than CNN in the past few years.

your hypocrisy is astounding.

there are many Trump Russia connections and you can't change that fact.

do you not understand what Robert Mueller is currently doing and how much power he has?

if you actually think Trump is honest and has a squeaky clean history i have a bridge to sell you.

why are you quoting me, and then making a weak argument against something in the thread title?as a logical fallacy, it would be considered a false attribution(i looked it up) also pedantic. and seriously, stop diverting the conversation to fox.

If CNN is fallen what will Trump obsessively watch then claim he doesn't watch then proceed to give detailed criticism of each of their shows he doesn't watch?

lol

what exactly do you think Robert Mueller is doing?

also this...

"I am being investigated for firing the FBI Director by the man who told me to fire the FBI Director! Witch Hunt" - Donald Trump

First, three CNN journalists who worked on a now-retracted story about Russia and a top Trump adviser are leaving the network.

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...n-in-fallout-from-retracted-russia-story.html

Now, CNN producer John Bonifield is caught on film admitting that the network's constant coverage of the Trump-Russia narrative is "mostly bullshit" and "the president is probably right to say CNN is witch-hunting him"

In non fake news, "CNN Caves!" FOX NEWS reports this? OK step back and think what makes you trust their veracity? But you do know the "FREE" Press has caved under political pressure before.

It's not just CNN, it's all the major media and probably the lesser ones too. They are all pushing a certain agenda - whatever that agenda may be.

In the end, whatever this agenda may be is usually something that favors the ruling class over everyone else - no matter what the media in question tells you. Whether its Alex Jones, CNN, Fox News, MSNBC etc. - they are not helping humanity one bit. In fact, they are misleading people and conditioning them even more. Remember, the interests of the ruling class are put forth by these media. The billionaires and the others will never allow a free press because that would be too dangerous for their interests.

It's not just CNN.

CNN's descent in to the twilight zone is highly entertaining.

One wonders why the left goes to bat for CNN. The enemy of my enemy is my friend type of thing?

Not that I care to see it end, but CNN is actively helping the POTUS 2020 bid with the almost daily chicanery they're putting out.

These are entitled D.C. brats using the left's disapointment as a vehicle to raise their own fame and status.

do all questions have to be argumentative?

that really doesn't make any sense, which would support his point.

yes naturally an argument will provoke the truth, think of it as a thought experiment if that helps.

he said did you and buckshot go to school together, its irrelevant and the only use for it is to derail a conversation.

they call it diversion here.

What we don't know. Whose money did Trump's casinos launder and pay out a ten million dollar fine when caught?

"In the second quarter, CNN's ratings were up 10% in prime time (8 p.m. to 11 p.m.) to a Nielsen 1.1 million total viewers versus a year ago. CNN is in 10th place among all cable networks. CNN viewership is also 25% higher — to 787,000 viewers in total day measure."

CNN literally just posted their most watched quarter in their history.

what's the point? you'll just say "fake news" or "anonymous sources" and dismiss anything that contradicts your false beliefs.

anonymous sources are implicitly untrustworthy, if i said i had an anonymous source who claimed that trump was bigfoot in disguise would it have any value outside of being absurdly humorous? no of course not.

there is no real evidence of trump having russian connections, which was my point. you say i hold false beliefs, you should really examine your own position.

you liberals continue to amaze me, a story is retracted, people are resigning and theres actual video of cnn executives admitting that their mcarthyesque crusade against trump is completely fake news.....

One story out of thousands, want to compare CNN's retractions to FOXs over the years? The Seth Rich story ring a bell?

Or want to compare fox employees who have been reprimanded put on suspension, quit fox or fled in disgrace? Roger Ailes, Bill O'reilly, Gretchen Carlson, Bob Beckel, Michelle Fields, Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin, Andrea Tantaros, Marc Lamont Hill, Ed Henry, Paula Zahn, Andrew Napolitano, Eric Burns, Dick Morris, and the list goes on and on.


Also the CNN employee is NOT an Executive, sheez, he is a producer for medical stories. And CNN doesn't give a rats ass about the video.
