Is CNN fake news??!?

[Gas121]

To answer your question Yes CNN is a fake news channel.

However many other networks are fake news. CNN is just the leading scapegoat at the moment.

Anybody that listens/reads CNN must take them with a pinch of salt.

Just read their daily headlines. Watch a few of their shows. The lies, smears, and propaganda are literally endless.

Who do you consider to be real news?

What article did cnn report that you were like "those guys are fake"?

It's interesting when you have a President who baldly LIES about anything and everything and yet the focus is on a news source for reporting supposed fake news. Here's what I can offer for Trump's lies - http://www.politifact.com/personalities/donald-trump/

• True15 (4%)
• Mostly True45 (12%)
• Half True52 (14%)
• Mostly False73 (20%)
• False123 (33%)
• Pants on Fire63 (17%)

So out of 372 statements fact checked he flat out was wrong or lied about 186 of them, or exactly half. Another 73 were "mostly false" so now we're at 70% of his statements being mostly false through pants on fire. From there a further 52 are deemed "half true" which would also mean "half false" and we're up to 84% of his statements contain AT LEAST half falsehoods.

So far little has been offered as proof of CNN being "fake news" in here. Even less in relationship to the President. Trump has had some glaring epic whoppers as well - it should be easy to have a ready made list being passed around in pro-Trump circles if CNN's fake news problem was so prevailent and easily provable.

It was fun to watch Ben Stein trash CNN on CNN.

And what do we have here now -

President Donald Trump’s pick for secretary of the Navy Philip Bilden has dropped out of the running as of Sunday, according to reports.

Sources in both the Navy and White House told USNI News that because of Bilden’s vast financial holdings, it’s unlikely he would pass ethics standards. Bilden, a long-time Republican donor, controlled the private equity firm HarbourVest in Hong Kong from 1996 to 2014.

The White House is reportedly scheduled to officially announce Bilden’s withdrawal later Sunday evening.

CBS News reported Feb. 18 that Bilden was likely to withdraw from the nomination for two reasons. The first is that as a former Army reserve officer, he had little familiarity with Navy matters. And the second, of course, is because the prospect of Bilden effectively separating himself from all his financial holdings was viewed as quite difficult.

Bilden served in the Army reserve from 1986 to 1996 as a military intelligence officer.

After the CBS report emerged, White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer blasted the idea that Bilden was reconsidering the position.

You straight out said that CNN was slanted for Trump. Are you now denying you said this? Because you seem to be pulling a JVS.

Quote me, if you're not lying.

CNN employs a guy who was Trump's campaign manager and cannot say anything bad about him, as well as Jeffrey Lord, who absurdly defends Trump constantly. It's insane that anyone would fail to realize that they are biased toward Trump.

So, Democrat FOX?

The dangerous thing about Trump overusing the fake news meme is that it damages people's ability to recognize actual fake news.

Btw, have you heard about Trump's addiction to cock pills!?!
"Donald Trump is Addicted to Penis Enlargement Pills Ex-Wife Says"

Yup, fake as men dressing to be the 'Fairer Sex" are,

A surreal joke

Trump explained his lies nicely in a speech the other day. When everyone was standing cheering he said "I see you're all standing, tomorrow the news will say I never got a standing ovation because technically you've been standing and cheering the whole time so that means you didn't actually stand up." He's right, 90+% of the "lies" he tells aren't lies at all. It's the media who lies and spins everything. I love how the left relies on cat ladies and dudes fucking prostitutes as arbiters of truth these days.

Regarding the post above, I've come to respect Bill Maher. I think he's wrong in his conclusions, but he is actually consistent. You can follow his logic. That's all I ask. Have a position that can be followed and call people out who don't follow it even if they are on your side. His show is probably the only liberal show where people come out of it a little more knowledgeable then when it began. Some of his guests are straight up fucking retards, but he has some great ones as well. Respect to Bill, even though I disagree with him at least 50% of the time.

Poor thing. I mean that.

You know who uses "facts" in every single debate? With the lefts obsession of taking everything out of context and obsessing over facts there is one man who in every single debate vomits out facts. The left should love him. He's the opposite of Trump. Instead of using logic and reason he uses straight hard data. That person is David Duke. Every single debate he will rattle off the statistics. He'll pass all the fact checkers and he's just so "honest", just like mainstream news. They've got their facts in order so it must be the truth! Sure, he starts off with his conclusion already in mind that it's the Jews, but that's no different then CNN starting off with blaming whites and then looking for evidence to support an already held conclusion. They both make sure not to "lie" and both find supporting evidence. A match made in heaven, David Duke and CNN. Both truthful vile racists.

 

[Witchhunt]

I don't know if they're more or less favorable, and I don't think I've said otherwise. The notion that they had a pro-Clinton bias is nuts, though. I think it's a combination of hacks wanting to work the refs, people wanting confirmation bias in news, and people failing to distinguish between opinion commentary and news (and between the opinions of hosts and an organizational view). They don't have any ideological agenda, either. It's just a business, and they try to have broad appeal (unlike Fox, which is also a business, but tries to and does capture right-wingers who get mad about real news).

Ed: Generally, if you're interested in accuracy about my views, read my posts rather than what trolls say I said.

Always right up the middle Jack.. Thanks.

See what you did there? Did you actually encounter that weird deflection?

That right there is typical reaction that I would expect on most debates.

We aren't debating. You're being a typical smug know nothing fool, and I'm ranting.
