Did CNN not cover Hillary's email scandal or Benghazi without proof of a crime? Grow up people. It's a real story that is based on a real crime that happened (hacking of our election) and CNN SHOULD care about ratings because they are a freaking business and this is American where companies are allowed to serve their own financial interests. If CNN has folks that lie in stories they have shown they will fire those folks and retract that story. When has FoxNews or Brietbart EVER held that standard? Has InfoWars ever fired someone for lying about say... Sandy Hook being a false flag? Grow up. At least the one remaining left leaning/center left leaning network has SOME standards of truthful journalism.
Today's project veritas expose really deserves its own thread. Won't matter though. Liberals will still find a way to ignore it.
election was not hacked. misinformation like this is whats getting CNN in hot water and why their viewers are so confused these days.
I have been very critical of CNN on this forum so watching this project veritas expose was pretty sweet.
Curious... what do you want to be done about CNN? They admitted the problem and got rid of those directly involved.
This... Maybe the super conservatives can point out Fox, info wars, and Breitbart's corrections and firings.
Where do you get your news from? I'd like to check for their accuracy and make sure you aren't a hypocrite. K thanks!
The OKeefe' bombshell is so massive that the MSM is quietly fuming knowing that there is nothing they can do to save CNN. When a senior producer is on video camera stating that the "russia" narrative is mainly done for ratings...in order to compete against cable/non cable networks. LOL! The sad part is that this isnt happening solely on CNN...just imagine the profit margins that MSNBC, ABC, CBS have acquired driving the "russia did it" narrative? OKeefe may quite frankly put CNN out of business. Luckily they have time to stew over how Trump's travel ban was upheld by the Supreme court 9-0... nope...RUSSIA!!!
They want to be treated like a 'business"... Its going to matter when major companies withdraw its sponsorship, and when remaining viewership nosedives. CNN as a company took a major hit by having a high level producer state on camera that the Russia narrative has been a ratings booster...and their storylines based on a profit margin scheme.
Also funny is that if you were watching during the recent Georgia election they were all over that from the start when the thought was that the Democrat would win in an upset, but as soon as things started to not go his way, they switched back to Russia, even before the race was called. It's pretty clear that cable news networks have political bias' and they use their platform to push political narratives and chase ratings. So long as we all admit that instead of suggesting that they have some kind of unimpeachable journalistic credibility then it's not that big a deal IMO.
And obama wasn't a boon for various right wing media outlets? Your problem is your team's blatant hypocrisy and ignorance. CNN clearly sees how successful Fox News is and Fox being a right wing mouth piece has boosted it and the GOP message.
The sad thing is there are some really smart people who have been duped by the echo chamber. They hate Trump so much they want to believe this BS so it is easy to dupe them.
