CNN Fake News
How's this going for you so far?

Your big revelation turns out not to be Jake Tapper of CNN but a recording of Dog the Bounty Hunter.

If only there was a hip new phrase we could use to describe what you've done.

You believe most people saw it for what it was. Perhaps it would be easier if you told us what that was (because I highly doubt I'm part of the 'most' you mention and there's probably a few others in the minority here)?

Like these people? http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/314753-...

You could say exactly the same thing about a 10 year old audio clip of Trump but they went mad over that.
I guess the difference is that the staff at CNN changed, and Trump is still, well, Trump.
Thats like saying the members of the BNP have changed over time so the they must have changed.
Who the staff are matters very little.
It is the political bias of the owners. Any reporter/researcher/presenter that wasn't on board with the owner's policy / goals wouldn't last long.

I've already posted a link to Larry King schmoozing up to Bill Clinton on behalf of Ted Turner, CNN owner/founder, in '92.
They have history, but it is only a secret to those who want to close their eyes and ears.

I do believe that CNN and the BBC have overstepped their mark as news organisations for a long time. Bias and complete batst reporting such as the whole bbc "Syrian migrant killed in bomb blast" when it was the guy blowing himself up, or the continued petty talk about trump and any detractor to the last 20 years of absolute disastrous progress.
Please try and remember that the low-information, perpetually outraged neo-prog set is a beast of its own. Classical liberals want nothing to do with them.

CNN has become the LGBT mouthpiece.

They are a major channel carried by probably all the cable providers.
If you dislike Trump, they will give you an erection 24 7, if you want to know what's going on you are wasting your time.
They twice reported the market had stalled during a 12 day run, irresponsible.
Probably Soros inspiredbiggrin

Bloomberg is about as anti Trump as it gets, but his news station still manages to maintain a distinction between news and opinion.

PH still has a strong right wing bias. The problem with Trump is that he's not particularly right-wing or left-wing. he's just a unqiue combination of batst and bullst which annoys all sides of the spectrum equally. That is precisely why pretty much ALL the media (from FOX all the way over to MSNBC) except for loonfringe sites like Breitbart and Infowars are against him.

They're not actually against him either. They just report what he says. people then point out that it's a combination of batst and bullst and Trump gets upset. It's hilarious and worrying that people cant see him for the snake oil salesman he is.

As long as he gets through what he promised, he'll be OK (and very unusual). One doesn't have to like a leader, they just have to do what they promised, rather than be given marks for style.

Donald Trump has broken nearly all his "Day One" promises

At some point today Project Veritas will release some very shocking undercover investigative journalism exposing CNN Fake News for the Fake News Organization they really are.
It's clear from some of your non news related posts that you're fairly coherent and intelligent. I don't understand the disconnect in your brain that allows you to point at various mainstream news outlets and decry them for putting out corrupt bullst, while simultaneously using some of the Internets craziest, most biased, bullst peddlers as sources.

There's a whole industry now set up to peddle st to people who consider themselves 'skeptics' but are anything but. Alex Jones was a pioneer of it.

I think you are going a little off topic.

This is about CNN.
Prior to the election their stance was that Trump had no chance and Hillary was a shoo in.
When the stats showed Trump was ahead they just used the stats from the previous day. In the Days before the election it was back and forth EXCEPT
ON CNN!
The dis-service they did was to their own viewers, those that supported Hillary.
As the results started coming in people who only watched CNN were in complete shock and disbelief.

I was split, from an income tax perspective, Hillary was less of a risk, but overall I dislike her more than Trump and something had to be done to counter the damage done by Obama. For those in doubt, Hillary would also have to address the affordable care act because Obama had just abandoned it.

Luckily I am able to separate what I want, and what I think will happen.
Something not many seem able to do.

To sum up, if you want to become an expert on transgender bathrooms, tune in today.

I have listened to Alex Jones for a long time. Being very familiar with his style and personality, I am able to put aside the theatrics and get the core information he is putting out. He has consistently been correct over the years, typically well ahead of before the msm reports.

CNN are flat out crooks, the worst of the worst.

People want sharp, well presentable reporters over accurate reporting and hard hitting information. The msm will never report the truth due to the nature of who runs and owns them I.e. Time Warner.

Don't forget leaking debate questions to HRC. Anyways, the collusion with the Clinton campaign wasn't just CNN, other networks were involved too. Wikileaks was invaluable.

The real dangers Clinton posed were her involvement with the neoliberal war machine, which had us on a path to a manufactured war with Russia, as well as her (and Bill's) efforts to usher in an era of neo-feudalism. Trump is far from a perfect vessel, but I cannot imagine where we'd be at had HRC won.

Can you give an example of him being ahead of the curve and, more importantly, accurate?

Thank goodness he's alerted us to the truth about the weather weapon steering tornadoes to do the government's bidding. Or that Sandy Hook, Orlando, Boston and Belgium were all faked. Or any number of his other nutjob fantasy conspiracies.

Consistently correct? Name one please.
