CNN tried to put on an appearance of fair and unbiased while still pandering to the Left. It was so transparent that it was impossible to miss. People noticed. Lots of people.
MSNBC on the other hand took a tire squealing 5g Left turn and never looked back or tried very hard to deny it. People noticed that too. But, I suppose you have to give MSNBC credit for not going too far afield in denying their Leftward Lean.
What about ABC, NBC and CBS? The Uber-Left bias literally shrieks from the screen yet nobody goes to any really great lengths to bring that up in serious dialogue.
I gotta wonder if the American Media has been in any way an Estate of true journalism since the glaring headline “Dewey Defeats Truman”.
CNN, the Communist News Network. Seriously, who really cares whether that network lives or dies. It has overstayed its welcome, its closing time and time for CNN to say goodnight. It won’t be missed. There are other lefty news outlets who will gladly fill in for them until they too are forced to close up shop for lack of viewing support. Leftist news outlets can be tolerated for a while but eventually people grow tired of being entertained with editorials masquerading as fact, tired of all the lies and half truths and hunger for the truth, that is those with brains will.
CNN should be closed immediately. Boycott them. Why are they in Africa, because they are ignorant and stupid. They are the only one’s who will waste time watching junk.
I agree they lean heavily to the left. Unfortunately on the east coast we do not have any right wing or even centerist media. We have Fox which is probably the biggest joke of a media station and that is it. Fox never reports news, it just pumps political rantings out on the people. I can listen to the radio, but I did that many years ago, and today we have Television which has the ability to show us pictures. But as Fox is the only one I know supposing to be right wing. We have nothing.
What’s amazing is how little insight the CNN (“Certainly Not the News”) types have about the reasons for their continued decline. Or for that matter any recognition by the rest of the “mainstream” media how dominant their hated Fox has become.
Last i read Fox News had more viewers than CNN and MSNBC combined–what an amazing feat for a r relatively newer start up. But don’t expect to hear that fact mentioned by the NYTimes any time soon!
It’s encouraging to realize that for all the dishonest B.S. pushed by the Left in recent years, an increasing number of Americans recognize that.
