Re: Is it just me or are we witnessing the total implosion..
I'm in LAX and walk into the Delta Club and the first thing I see on CNN is a piece on Trump having a disgraced congressman sitting in his audience. I guess they had to find something to offset the Orlando shooter's dad in Clinton's audience.
I really can't stomach CNN anymore. It all started with the Candy Crowley debate incident.

Say what? What bothers me most about all news sources now is that don't care about being accurate, they only want to be first. Richard Jewel knows all about that.

Re: Is it just me or are we witnessing the total implosion..
They just attempted a bait & switch. Just two months ago they admitted to being too liberal in an attempt to attract some moderate/conservative viewers. So they tried to bring more balance to the network for about 2 weeks. Then as soon as the GOP convention got started, they went on an all out frontal assault. They didn't even try to pretend to be balanced.

But now they are so over zealous in their anti-Trump/pro-Hillary infomercial mode, that they are easily fooled by fake stories, but they probably don't even care. If anyone says something that makes Trump look bad, they'll report it.

Their Trump bashing is being reflected in their ratings.

Re: Is it just me or are we witnessing the total implosion..
The LIVs love it so I doubt they implode. The CNN audience doesn't care that the stories are fake and dishonest, they care that a "legitimate" news agency loves Clinton and fears Trump as much as they do. They've always been biased and dishonest, it's just overt now.

never mind that 4 years ago Biden told Obama he would have to pry his shotgun from his hands, both hillary and biden have said similar things as trump did about the second amendment, zero uproar, shocking
