    CNN has more than a decade worth of BS to overcome. As a brand, it might have been better to scrap it entirely and try entering the market as something no one knows anything about.

    It's like how poorly ESPN has devolved from being the coolest thing for sports on TV to the snooze fest it is today. CNN should just call it a day. Apologize to everyone for the BS it pushed, and leave.

    Yep, what gets me is what motivates them to fake it. I do have speculations, on why though.

    just a small list from a very large one:

    CNN is doing the same thing it has always done. Trying to make money.

    Wherever you choose to get your news, that is their goal.

    Who is upset? Is this what this thread or my post is about? I'm laughing at the fact that so many hang their beloved perspectives from the bullshit mill that was, only to have it stripped away of the leftist and woke reporters and anchors. Might want to look into people's motivation and their modus operandi for posting/creating a thread before commenting. :)

    desperation for finding stories they can't find, so they have to make them up to keep the propaganda and lie wheels turning to keep the people misinformed. Yeah, real ethical and moral grounds there.

    But is FAKE NEWS actually news? You have news and you have propaganda. The latter is what every US TV media outlet is selling.

    They all do the same thing.

    They are adapting stories to meet what they think will create the most profit.

    For the first time, I actually agree with you.

    Now if you would learn the fake news media has been feeding you :icon_shithappens: about "the ukraine", we'll be making some serious progress.

    So they sell a lie. Heard a Chinese whisper and turned it into a conspiracy scandal only to fall flat on their face when they get called out for the facts. Then they tap dance.

    So if someone just started paying attention today, this very moment, what site/news feed of current events would you recommend?

    Most media doesn't straight up lie.

    Headlines and how much time they choose to give stories is based on what they think will cause them maintain their current viewers and/or add new viewers.

    I've been going with al Jazeera for anything related to Ukraine. Certainly wouldn't source anything from ****ing CNN or RT

    And this was written by a guy who BELIEVES WHATEVER PUTIN SAYS.
    Even it today it's one thing, and 48 hours later it's something else.

    Putin - there won't be any mobilization
    48 hours later Putin - there will be a 'limited' mobilization of 300,000 men.
    48 hours later the reality - a complete mobilization.

    This is a psychological issue with your grasp of reality - nothing to do with current events.

    Some may not, but all don't tell all the facts. If someone interviewed answers a question, it will be reported in an out-of-context manner and or not at all. Or a narrative that doesn't get all of the facts presented to the audience.

    Yes, a lot of conjecture, speculation and lies.

    Yes, they're the worst. They got caught on more than several occasions. One of the prior bosses of CNN stood themselves down for lying. So if the leader lies, it all rolls downhill from there. A culture of lies, but this has changed now.

    We just give passes to the ones who say things we like to hear.

    That is why they keep playing the same game.

    I have been watching Russian news -- you know, there's no invasion, no war, no mobilization, no massacres, no protests, no regrets, no problems, no body counts...

    Clearly you're watching playschool, is there a chair in there, and a Poohbear too?
    You've got it all wrong Whinnie, it's western MSM covering all those false narratives, it must be working. Just look at you go. :banana:
