WTF is the deal with CNN?

[highfigh]

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.

Nice job of sticking to the topic.

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.

Sidestepping still.....so where are all these CNN employees? Was it a conspiracy? Was it Pizzagate level?

I'm not going to spend the time to do this- I wrote "Maybe we should make a list". Help if you want, or don't. Whatever you choose. If you read or watch the news, you must have seen more than a few names come up but as I also wrote, a list of these turds should include anyone, not just from CNN or other non-FOX networks. AM talk radio hosts are fair game, too- can't stand them.

I just don't understand why you're singling out CNN in this case....that's the point. Turds for sure, but it's not necessarily a CNN "thing", eh?

Kind of a 'thing' because they have had several consecutive claims recently. Maybe the other networks decided that they should cool their jets.

OTOH, we wouldn't expect them to accuse each other IF they were all doing it, right? Let's see if more are named in the Epstein/Maxwell case in the event that they release a big list.

And when did Shapiro come up with this phrase?

A year or two back. He'd already passed on Trump once. It was on youtube somewhere. He said it wasn't worth it because the damage Trump would do to the social fabric was even worse. It's sorta like what Michael Medved. He'll hurt the party in the long run. "I love the uneducated!" You'd never say that unless you planned on manipulating them. You might say "I love you, but I hope you get an education." Trump gave the uneducated and ignorant a voice. The deplorables. Sure it hurt Hillary to say "basket of deplorables" at the time during her campaign, but she was right. Hillary conceded defeat a day later. Trump, two months, and he didn't attend Biden's inaug. Well he never did concede. Has the threshold of a child. 20th anniversary of 9-11 and he "visits" firefighters and goes on about the election still. When his brother died years back, Trump talked about him at his funeral and said he wasn't a "winner" and proceeded to talk about himself the remainder of the time. Yep, real winner there.

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.

Let's agree to disagree on both counts. Even if CNN had seemingly frequent events such as this one, this could also mean actual swamp drain. As soon as I begin to question their journalistic integrity, is the moment I will stop giving weight to their reports, like I for now for such fine sources like RT.com, Al-Jazeera, Infowars, News Max, Jimmy Dore show, Palmer Report... etc., etc...

I'm critical of all media and this isn't something to just put on CNN. And at least CNN is being as transparent as they can on these things.

I guarantee you outlets on the right got just as much messed up stuff going on. Just some of them haven't gotten caught recently

I watch The Hill on YouTube I like that news channel because they have a good mix of democrat conservative and centrist anchors and speakers and they do a good job (in my opinion) of laying out the news and then letting each anchor have there take on it and you the observer can make up your own mind after you hear what each of them has to say.

I like them because the anchors are civil they don't hold back there views they treat each other with respect nobody talks over anyone nobody is shouting each other down insulting each other just good opinions and conversation from everyone

It's not like the 5 where you basically have all conservatives and 1 Democrat and they spend 80% of the show kicking the poop out of anything the Democrat has to say not really fair in my opinion or balanced

I also like the Hoover Institute a lot.

Plus Kim Iverson is frikkin hot

The Five. Jesse Water was once caught saying, "No, I didn't read the bill" when challenged. He went into alpha male mode from there. They put in Juan cause he's soft spoken.

Shapiro didn't coin the phrase- it was in used long before a couple of years ago.

Why are you going on about Trump- I started this thread, asking about the people at CNN who have recently been accused of sexual assault and other misconduct. Start your own damn thread if you want to blather on about Trumplestiltskin.

Don Lemon, Chris Cuomo, now this producer. Don't watch the news, much?

So, it's OK for them to assault people as long as their reporting is clean.

Got it.

I hadn't seen that- have you seen any info on that guys past that might show why he filed the complaint?

Good grief.....

Hice's former lawyer Andrew Miltenberg previously hit back at CNN's claims regarding his social media activity, telling PEOPLE in a statement: "The assertion that Mr. Hice would put himself through the painful process of filing a sexual assault lawsuit against his attacker all because he doesn't like a cable TV station is ludicrous. It's shameful that the CNN attack machine is resorting to victim-blaming in order to detract from Mr. Lemon's gross sexual misconduct."

Miltenberg withdrew from the case in February. Hice is now represented by Robert Barnes, an attorney and pro-Trump YouTuber.

A witness in the case, who earlier testified that he had seen Lemon touch Hice's face the evening the alleged incident occurred, said in a later deposition that he could no longer remember whether it had happened.

That witness — who has since been withdrawn — added that Hice had also insinuated that he would pay him in exchange for favorable testimony, writing in an Instagram message: "You know if I get $$ I'll take care of you, dude."

Asked about that message in a sworn deposition taken August 6, Hice said: "Yes, apparently I was offering him money."

The case is scheduled to go to trial in January.

No, I don't bother with the "news" much about the talking heads or their management, has much happened since Fox got rid of Ailes and various others, did CNN take over the lead from Fox?

Chris Cuomo should have been fired months ago. Don Lemon seems to make almost every issue about race. But neither of them is anywhere close to the lies and hatred spread by Tucker Carlson (and to a lesser extent Laura Ingram). It's sad that Chris Walace felt he had to leave FOX but that is where our country is right now.
