WTF is the deal with CNN?

Well they suck in general, but was it CNN or Griffin on his own in this case?

Click baiting thread title. The issue with one producer doesn't represent the entire CNN, who's not surprisingly is a friend of Chris Cuomo. The later can of worms is just starting to unravel.

Whatever the deal is, CNN is apparently still good enough to leave FOX for...
Chris Wallace announces he is leaving Fox News, joining CNN+

Chris Wallace announces he is leaving Fox News, joining CNN+

Fox News anchor Chris Wallace, one of the few high-profile news personalities who retained a reputation of integrity as Fox leaned hard into right-wing and conspiratorial programming, announced Sunday that he is departing the network and joining CNN+ to host a weekday show.

In that regard I have to give Fox credit for having him on for as long as they did.

Griffin: just letting you know I'm into sex with children.
CNN: No worries. You do great work here.

20 odd years ago it was the Clinton News Network. (Fair enough.) Now it's deemed the Conspiracy NN by Republicans.

Pick your poison and I do mean poison. It's just like watching the Dems and Republicans go at it. The only political show I watch anymore is Morning Joe on MSCNBC. Now Trump is accusing Obama of creating division in the country. Maybe he did especially for Trump supporters but for the rest of voters Trump did a pretty good job of it himself. And I doubt that Obama would have tried to overturn an election if he lost in his 2nd bid. Just sayin...

Oh, and I really like Chris Wallace he always tried his best to report the facts and remain unbiased.

I don't think there's much question to who did the most harm to the social fabric of the US.

If what I say isn't true, how do you explain the record economic growth under Trump and not repeat hmmm?? It's kinda a clumsy truck up. It was Ben Shapiro who coined "social fabric," and he acknowledged twice not voting for him despite agreeing with his policy.

He did inherit a growing economy left by Obama and to his credit kept it going. But he was woefully unprepared for Covld. Minimizing and lying about the severity of the virus was probably his undoing. So now we have Biden.

Let's try this: what Obama had was under a Republican senate so he didn't really achieve the growth. Step in CEO Trump and the economy grows even more. From the pov of Republicans. So how you in Trumps eyes have the greatest economy and not repeat? Then you lose every branch of power. From that premise it just seems to be a truck up IMO. Bidens entire campaign is don't truck up and be a lord helmet like Trump. Again don't have to agree with the premise but seems such a truck up to me.

That is so true and a lesson that has not been learned by mankind in general. The relationship of anger to attack is obvious, but the relationship of anger to fear is not always so apparent. Anger always involves projection of separation, which must ultimately be accepted as one’s own responsibility, rather than being blamed on others. Anger cannot occur unless you believe that you have been attacked, that your attack is justified in return, and that you are in no way responsible for it. Given these three wholly irrational premises, the equally irrational conclusion that a brother is worthy of attack rather than of love must follow. What can be expected from insane premises except an insane conclusion? The way to undo an insane conclusion is to consider the sanity of the premises on which it rests. You cannot BE attacked, attack HAS no justification, and you ARE responsible for what you believe.

After thinking on this it makes you wonder how the heck a man with a handful of bankruptcies can achieve any economic impact.

WTF is with the stupid thread title?

 

[highfigh]

How many of their staff have been accused of some kind of charge like this?

Maybe we should make a list of all news hosts, executives, producers and directors who have been accused- hold back nothing, everyone is fair game and I don't care about their party affiliation. This kind of crap needs to stop.

No, but CNN has been over-represented in this kind of claim, not that the other networks have been left unscathed. I don't know if it's being hidden from the execs, or if the execs know and aren't talking.

Don't care if he's a friend of Cuomo, or not.

So list all these CNN employee transgressions. Is Pizzagate in there? How about we just list the republican representatives that have been arrested on such in the last coupla years? Democrats, too.....fascinating what with the thoughts on pedophilia being political in nature.

And when did Shapiro come up with this phrase?

Go ahead- if you would read the post, I wrote that I don't care which party the accused are associated with. That doesn't matter.
