This had to hurt to put on the front of CNN - bobdizole - 06-29-2018 09:28 AM
Trump can't stop winning

I know the lean on CNN is still incredibly hard left, but it they would just move slightly center in their coverage of Trump I really think a lot of the "sky is falling" mentality would fade out. People may not be watching CNN right now, but if they gave Trump even neutral coverage people would notice.

I don't know how anyone could think CNN is "incredibly hard left". I could see "incredibly hard stupid" or "incredibly hard Jerry Springer replacement".
It's basically an entertainment network that skews slightly left. Fox News is an entertainment network that skews far right. MSNBC is unwatchable and skews into a ditch.

I'll admit fox skews right in their commentary shows, but their news reporting is right down the middle. The only reason the seem far right is because every other channel is left of center

If your center is right, then everything to the left of right is left.

CNN is not "incredibly hard left".......they're unhinged left. Come on dude, how many times did Stormy's attorney appear on CNN?

Not sure what that really has to do with anything. They changed from a news network to an entertainment network years ago. Their entertainment has a slight left slant, but it's more ESPN than anything else.
I'll watch it occasionally, but I prefer actual news and not panels of equally vapid surrogates of both sides trying to talk over each other.

It has to do with the fact that with every pore in their bodies they're against Trump.....and make no apologies about it.

But other than the number of times they interview Stormy's lawyer, what difference does that make if it is true? Fox News, with every pore in their bodies, are for Trump.
So if you feel that strongly about CNN, it would stand to reason that you wouldn't get your news from something equally slanted.
Personally, I don't think CNN can slant as hard as Fox News, because they care too much about not being called biased, which seems to be going great, and they have 50/50 panels on even the most absurd topics.

Who said I get my news from Fox?
And where in the world do you get the idea that CNN cares too much about not being called biased????
That's a riot.

the only way you dont see CNN as hard left is if you are even farther to left than CNN's coverage.

I thought I read a post by you referring to them, but I admittedly mix up names a lot.

They definitely do. They want to be mentioned in the same breath as the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, NPR, Bloomberg, Washington Post, etc. A majority of the time they have more in common with the Maury Povich show than any of those.

I'm actually pretty center when it comes to news. If you were to actively read/watch the left equivalents to Fox News, Breitbart, Daily Caller, etc, your head would explode.

MSNBC is unhinged alt-left.
CNN is ISIS
Fox News is fair & balanced.

You have any proof of that, or are you just offering your opinion? CNN is a joke nationally, and yes, that's my opinion.
I mentioned Fox yesterday because a newspaper article I was reading quoted them specifically as having ID'd Trump's top 5 SC nominees. I rarely, very very rarely, open the Fox News website to read a story.
Most of what I read I pick up from Real Clear Politics. They link articles daily of all viewpoints from both sides of the political spectrum so I can find most everything I need in one spot.

Proof? No. I'm going by my gut instinct by how they conduct themselves and what they say off-air.

I should use that site more than I do.

Sorry, but I'm still trying to square interviewing Stormy Daniel's attorney 59 times in less than two months with wanting to be considered in the big leagues.
As for their wanting to present themselves as being non-biased, if that's the truth, then all I can say is taht they're tone deaf and totally lacking in self-awareness.

True enough to be uttered by James Earl Jones.

There is a hard right like Hannity, Periorer (SP), Ingrim and some others, and then you have the likes of Smith, Wallace, Hemmer and several others actually fighting them behind the scenes. From what i understand, these people want hanity, Carlson, Ingrim, the Judge P and some others be fired for spreading fake news.
