Has ely been put in charge of CNN.com?

I mean, let's look at some of the headlines:

"White House abandons reality after Saudi attack"

"Anderson Cooper: Trump is making stuff up about Iran"

"Cuomo predicts this may be key to Trump's own undoing" (this one might be hcap's...it follows the whole "any day now" meme)

"Opinion: Trump gets amnesia on Iran"

"Lemon: Obama gets under Trump's skin"

"Man Trump called 'my African-American' leaves GOP"

"Opinion: Rescue Kavanaugh? Trump's ridiculous idea"

"White House tells Lewandowski not to answer questions from a House committee"

oh...at least there was this:

"Botched NYT Kavanaugh story is the latest in a series of blunders from Opinion section"

There is a Iran thread where we can make fun of Trump on Iran together...

I would assume CNN is pissed about being called fake news when stuff like this happens:


Followed up by...

Followed up by the CIA calling them outright LIARS over a recent story.

CNN - where the news is either fake or it's by accident

CNN is next to unwatchable.
They don't even have "token Republicans" on any of their panels of "eggsperts" anymore.
Even S.E. Cupp who is a Republican has sold her soul to CNN and promotes the same slanted information as the other 24/7 Trump bashers.
If America elects a "Socialist" Prez, the day will come when some of them might wake up realize how their stupidity killed Free Enterprise Capitalism.

So... yeah.. . I assumed nobody wanted to talk about the obvious lie Trump tweeted about Iran.

We all talked about it back in May/June.

I attacked Trump's policy... y'all defended it.

Remember "please call me?"



CNN is the problem though...

Trump's administration will be remembered in history as the one which accelerated American decline at the world stage and paved the way towards a multi-polar 21st Century.

What Topic...?

Mike posted 4 or 5 articles about Iran from CNN.

I love how none of you want to actually talk policy anymore because it's a ****ing trainwreck so let's go after *spins wheel* CNN.

At least they'd be correct headlines.

BTW, all those headlines were up there all at once this morning...

It's not only off-topic that is obsessed with Trump.

Their choice of wording, especially on non-opinion-piece headlines, shows that they have abandoned any shred of objectivity as a network. But we knew that already.

I know, I know..."but it's TRUMP..."

Trump says something dumb.

Media calls him on it.

Trump supporters blame media.

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

You're making everything but the point I think you're going for here...

Abandons reality? Really...no other president ever deserved that kind of headline prior to Trump? Doubtful.

Anyone ever get it? I'm betting no...

I get it though..."but it's TRUMP!"

Who is telling the truth here?

Trump or the fake news/enemy of the people?

Nobody made Trump tweet that bullshit...

1 thru 4.

You have no idea how strange off topic is thinking the awful obvious, in plain sight truths, most of the country now accepts about the worst president eva,..... is fake news.

Got a question for ya. Who is posting some of the new threads here. Specifically "What's Ahead...Regardless of Who Wins in 2020" Must be a throwback to Bill Clinton killed Vince Foster.

Kinda strange, and you think the mainstream press is weird.
Go figure.
