Why is CNN so far left?

[Sheik Yerbouti]

For the same reason there's no such thing as climate change. There is a right-wing propaganda empire that's found it quite profitable to manipulate poorly informed, gullible conservatives . These sites have spent years brainwashing the right that all other media are hopelessly liberal. (It's just a happy coincidence, of course, that this incessant cry of liberal bias just happens to serve the financial interests of these very same right-wing media businesses. Follow the money.)

I AM A PRESUMPTUOUS MORON....

Yea, so you are smarter than 97% of the global scientific community.

Read the second sentence, moron. I'm saying "CNN is so far left" and "climate change is false" because there's a huge propaganda empire built around spreading such bullshit claims. In other words, both claims are lies. Good grief.

are you saying climate change, man made climate change is false?

You are correct, I am, indeed, a moron. And a presumptuous one. Apologies.

You need to go back and read his post again.

 

[jackstar7]

You guys... you're on the same side. Sheik, you kinda jumped the gun there...

EDIT: My rule remains in place. You admit you're wrong on the internet and you get a Like.

FFS no, I'm saying the right-wing media lie about climate change. I'm saying both claims are false.

 

[jackstar7]

Trump's affect on P&N is real.

 

[Bowfinger]

You are correct, ... Apologies.

It happens. Cheers!

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

It happens. Cheers!

and for the clickbait drumpftards, the headline would be
One lib calls another lib out on their climate change lies... you won't believe what happens next!

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

I only wish CNN was as left as FOX was right. CNN is fucking corporatist more than anything else.

So was Hillary. They fit rather well together.

that is awesome! (and totally nuts) who's gonna go get the pup, or does the bear walk him back to the car?

Agreed.
News reporting is unbiased for the most part in terms of reporting of facts.
Pundits are mostly left leaning but pretty reasonable and will praise trump when he gets stuff right or does well. A lot of their pundits have both GOP and democratic political experience

Fox news doesn't even operate in reality or facts.

I thought you'd enjoy that.

Yeah agreed. CNN is not liberal at all. It's a pure corporate establishment news network that was 110% in on Hilary. Now that she has lost they will just rail against Trump for 4 years with dumb headlines. That doesn't make them a progressive or liberal news source.

 

[Puffnstuff]

They are the counterbalance to Faux News "fair and balanced" reporting.

A plurality of them know it's fake, they just don't care.

Stop going crazy judging the network on just one crazy year when pretty much every media outlet came out against trump directly.

Last year when nothing was going on fox news was still bat shit right wing crazy. CNN was just another forgetable news network.

 

[OverVolt]

CNN, the network that spent the last year and a half airing Trump rallies wholesale and without comment, often devoting airtime to nothing but just showing the empty podium in breathless anticipation?

CNN, the network that hired Trump's campaign manager as a pundit despite the fact that said campaign manager was still receiving money from the Trump campaign, was under an NDA covering Trump, and immediately quit to go back to work for Donald as soon as the election was over?

CNN, the network that spent more time talking about Hillary's emails than all policy issues from all candidates combined?

Well obviously they aren't good at shilling for the democrats but that didn't stop them from trying.

Its like when you don't want to talk about the emails but you're worried about the emails and so the emails are all you can talk about. Emails. Damnit.

They not only shill, but they are terrible at it.

 

[OverVolt]

I usually jump between fox and CNN for my political news to get articles from both sides, but todyas headlines from CNN (quoted by OP) were almost like a tabloid.

Fox says he got rid of all of the political lobiests, CNN says his cabinet is in turmoil....and of course the truth is somewhere in-between. Ugh.

Does anyone have a news site they suggest for their daily news source? I find NPR news is pretty good, but they slant left in a subtle way on political stories and they tend to lose sight of being journalists on any green/global warming topic. (That's not meant to start any kind of flame war or suggest anything, it's just that to me they do much less reporting on both sides of those topics compared to their reporting on other topics)

Nah just pretty much read Fox and CNN and go somewhere in between.

Also read CNN money and "do the opposite" for investing advice.

If the media hated Trump so much, then why was he the most talked about and most covered Presidential candidate in the history of Presidential candidates?

Media coverage is better than no coverage. And the supposed media enemies of Trump covered him just as much as anyone else.

There was nothing but Trump coverage all over the US media for more than a year.

Oh yeah, the media hates Trump.
