I decided to see what all the hoopla is about here in the comment section so I switched over from Fox News to watch CNN. I'm impressed...why? I don't like how Fox News 'seems' to speak for Donald Trump's agenda... I don't agree with his policies. I voted for him to check the border and lower prices ON DAY ONE! The border...A+. The economy...a D. MAnd now my successful bike business is threatened by Trump's tariffs on Taiwan Thailand France and China. Unfortunately these tariffs give me no choice but to pass these charges onto my customers. Haphazardly rolled out...no one knows what's going on. So now have CNN on in my store 10am-9pm...but I still go home to watch Hannity at night and The Five at dinner. So you know...

On bringing peace to the Ukraine Russia War, Trump is about to get an "F" (as he said in 2024: "l'll bring that conflict to an end BEFORE I'm sworn in as President..." ). Just like he said in Febrrary 2020: "Covid will be over by Easter 2020". Just like HE said...

Soon The Biden family corruption will come to light and it will show how complicitant CNN was in hiding their crimes

Trump ran on ending the wars . China has been buying our farmland and food companies at a mad pace and tariffs are how we stop them. Did China buy CNN or was it just the Bidens?

Investigative journalism is dead and you murdered it.

From the network that said Joe Biden is doing a great job and Kamala Harris is a good candidate. Didn't report the Hunter Biden laptop. Please stop judging people, It's embarrassing.

You didn't cover Bidens ties to communist China or his deals with the Ukraine,. You didn't mention the crises at our border or how many people have died from fentanyl overdoses. But you piss and moan about Trumps phone calls with Putin? Your what's wrong with America not Trump.

Your liberal pundits are choosing such bizarre crosses to die on. What America hears is Democrat's love terrorists.

What I'm reading is that you don't understand when to use an apostrophe. Amazes me when people aren't smart enough to write a basic sentence yet somehow think their opinions are worth something.

CNN and ALL media outlets needs to remind viewers to stand up for Ukraine and stand by Ukraine. Fire President Musk...fire his political puppet Donald Trump... fire the wimp JD Vance...and fire the Speaker Mike Johnson...and fire and dismantle DOGE to save our government and Democracy!

When they say "Threat to democracy" they mean "Threat to bureaucracy." The bureaucracy is what funds them through graft and taxpayer's monies.

It's already started...stock market has lost almost $5,000,000,000,000 (5 trillion dollars)...etc etc etc AND etc. I could keep going but I actuallu charge to give out that info bro

BloneyBoy

Wow! You can charge for made up information? You must work for CNN or maybe MSNBC or maybe ABC or maybe CBS or maybe NBC or maybe PBS or maybe NYT or maybe WAPO or maybe.....

Their problem is that they are trying to portray their shows as real news, but everyone on the planet knows they are fake, and controlled by specific agendas and narratives. No one wants to watch fake, tired, talking points all the time. It is an easy fix: allow people to say what is on their mind, even if it goes against the policy agenda of CNN, without threat of being fired. When presenting "news," present both sides evenly and fairly. This usually means having a representative from both sides, not just one side. CNN = fake news! Both liberals and conservative believe that now.

Ha ha ha, soon you'll be bankrupt. Try bringing back real journalism instead of actors reading scripts.
