Default CNN Personifies "Fake News".

I decided to to watch CNN this morning, to get their version of the "News".

In one report, which lasted over five minutes, the words, "unamed sources", "officials say", "we believe", "there could be", "some believed", "there is concern", etc were used in just about every paragraph, to the extent that what you had was nothing but a political opinion masquerading as fact.

This is what is wrong with The Main Stream Media.

Rachel Maddow uses this technique to fill up about half the airtime on her show.

Use this technique next time you watch the news: Listen to what the subject actually says and the context that the subject says it in - not what the newscasters says the subject said. Often the newcast gives very little airtime, if any at all, to the subject actually speaking and giving the view they are being criticized for.

Fox News leans totally right, MSNBC leans left, CNN is right down the middle. Your just to bias to realize that to be true.

Kind of like they reported the Iraq war from a studio.
Oh wait they were in a war zone. True like this kind of true?

CNN is "right down the middle?" Jesus fucking Christ! What planet do you live on?

Instead of spending so much of your spare time spamming this forum with stupid shit, why don't you go back to school and at least try to master 4th-grade level grammar, spelling, and usage rules, you uneducated fucking moron.

Hippocritical SPAM

(Typical propaganda machine ... attack the messenger and you need not fear the truth -- or tell it)

That's how Goebbels did it.

That's how Twitler is doing it.

Seems to work just fine on you.

Have some more jerky.

That's how Obama did it and Clinton would have done the same.

He's pulling your (our) chain, CEO. No one, not even a one-celled organism would make such an moronic claim.


I've said it for a long time (and particularly during the campaign / post-election)...they should be ashamed /embarrassed to call themselves as a "News Organization". They should change their name (and logo) to:

Cable
Opinion
Network

I do wonder if (behind the scenes, off-camera), the talking heads at CON, errrr...CNN aren't all high-fiving one another; watching their own 401-K's / portfolios benefiting so far from Trump being in office. NO WAY this is happening with Hillary in the oval office.

Trump didn't really let the cat out of the bag. Fake News has been going on for quite some time. Todays MSM just takes Fake News to the next level. The following clip proves it and there are many, many more like it.

Same shit on here!

Some of these goofballs on TV actually start off their bullshit with:

.. "I know what he meant, and here's what he meant to say"!

It was plain from Trump's statement about Sweden ....

.. he didn't use the word "terrorism" with "last night"!

But the anti-Trumpers slip it in there with a "terror attack"!
