Do subscribers get a refund because of CNN’s false advertising as a truthful news source?

How many advertisers are contaminated by association with CNN?

Given that CNN’s “approval” rating is lower than that of the President they’re hammering, somebody there ought to be doing the math and realizing that even the people who don’t like Trump don’t trust them either. How bad is that?

CNN (or “FNN”, False Narrative Network) is soon to go the way of Al Jazeera, and end its cable operations in the US. Or at lease reduce it to a blog status.

Nobody much remembers the Mutual Broadcasting System network any more. Their news branch was HIGHLY respected.

Sex romps in the WH pool and oral sex in the Oval Office are beneath the dignity of the Presidency.

A silly video: not so much.

Perspective is important.

I agree with CNN that this will cause violence against reporters.

Remember the violence against coyotes after the Road Runner films came out?

I’m one of those 33 million Trump twitter followers, but I agree with you. Countless people who don’t have the time of day for twitter are exposed to his tweets in multiple ways. If Trump posted boring comments this wouldn’t be true. But when his tweets are making news week in and week out, they show up all over social media and beyond.

As Huckabee said this morning, it’s somehow ok for Trump to be assassinated on stage because it’s not real but it’s not ok for Trump to beat down a CNN wrestler because it’s somehow real. Morons.

You mean the deputy Press Secretary, right?

From the article:
But Trump isn’t changing. This is how he’s going to act in his spare time. And as sure as you were born, he’ll attack the media at least a few times per week for the rest of his time in office.

What I interpreted:
But The Media isn’t changing. This is how they’re going to act in their spare time. And as sure as you were born, they’ll attack President Trump (and people who voted for him) at least a few times per week for the rest of his time in office.

Sometimes you don’t have a choice about watching CNN. Most public places still have CNN on their TV’s.
