And you are becoming a cartoon character right before my eyes.
Even Fox News is a fake news now!

Sadly CNN did not used to be that way. Years ago you could turn on CNN from 8pm to 11PM and see a person behind a desk reading the news. They were just like the local news set up but global coverage. Now it is one talk show after another.
Same with the morning runs. Seriously how do you call news having two "hosts" reading a 2 sentence piece of news and then bringing in 4 panelists (other journalists by the way) to discuss and repeat the same 2 sentence piece of news for 30 minutes.
How retarded have we become to accept this as "news"
I just want to give our resident leftists sources that they claim are not biased.
Hint: These sources are completely biased. Half the reason to post them is to mock their complete lack of objectivity with basic facts.
You do realize that nearly 30% of the news on CNN is merely paid placement.
Yeah, I'm not a fan of the format. But they try to get at the truth. Do you also agree with gwb-trading that the other members of the mainstream media are all biased? (Or am I still on ignore?)
not every journalist is an investigative reporter. don't mix it again. we have all sort of journalism and it's up to people to choose what they want and which source they get their news from.
And yes, all news outlets are biased. that is nothing new. what is new is that we have a president who cannot take any criticism from anyone and as soon as someone calls him out he has a twitter hissy fit.
What an unfortunate world you live in.
Not so much paid placement but organizations make themselves available to the network to address an issue. So basically their message gets free air time. You have someone with knowledge on immigration and asylum cities who approaches the network and says our Executive Director is available for comment on air etc. CNN glazes their knuckles at the "Breaking News" and gives them a segment on air to push their message.
That is why the talk show structure is an insult to intelligence. Since when did we look to Maury Povich and Rikki Lake as a model to deliver news. The words are meant to convey the story not become the story. Tucker Carlson and Cuomo and Lemon and Tomi don't want to report the news, they want to BE the news. fuck them all. That is why I try to read as much news as possible on line so I don't have some wannabe celebrity acting like they are so fucking smart when any nutless monkey can read a teleprompter.
It is very unfortunate that you can't acknowledge that media sources are biased while you gulp down their nonsense without the least bit of questioning. This is the pitiful world in which you live out your fantasies.
