Half of America has lost faith in the ability of CNN to provide objective news and analysis, according to the latest national poll from Breitbart News Network and Gravis Marketing.

A whopping 50 percent answered “no” when asked if they “trust CNN to give you objective news and analysis.” Only 32 percent, less than a third of Americans, replied “yes,” while 19 percent said they were “unsure” if CNN gives objective news and analysis.

Clinton News Network.

Lead story is always a fluff piece on Hillary and the rest of it is a sustained attack on Trump.

Objective and non-partisan, indeed.

Any time I pass by that channel there is no news, just a panel of pinheads having a roundtable discussion about how sucky Trump is.

It always seems, over the years, about 30 some% of Americans are idiots.

On the bright side, it looks like it hasn’t changed.

“..about 30 some % of Americans are idiots...”

IMHO, it is higher than that. It is how Obama got elected. It is how Obama’s so-called approval ratings stay so high. It is how this country could put someone like Hitlery in the race for the presidency. It is how Congress gets away with complicity in subversion of our Republic.

And on, and on, and on......

IMHO it’s likely more complicated. I think there are a lot of Americans who are swayed by the ‘fairness’ arguments, and are preyed upon by those who for political gain cynically use the good will of these people. It’s a bit like the mailings we all get that tell us the polar bears are all dying. They’re designed to make you ‘feel’, and are often very contrived. I actually think it speaks well of Americans that many of our citizens are vulnerable to this kind of propaganda because they have good hearts. Fortunately, a great many appear to be getting beyond this manipulation and are seeing the truth.

Every time I flick through channels in the morning I always get talking heads bashing Trump, no objective news or facts what so ever.
They use their views as if it were fact.

Majority Thinks CNN Does Not Provide Objective Reporting...

The problem with this thread is that, that's the wrong question to ask.
The current crop of MSM idiots is serving us opinion 24/7, rather than news.

I remember when it was taken for granted that the very essence of news was the foundation: what? when?, where?, and last and least, who? specially when the reporter or "journalist" is an idiot, ignorant, an imbecile seeped in liberalism, and devoid of the weakest possible grasp of the Constitution and the rule of law.

The importance of the news is AWOL and the reader or listener lacks the facts to decide for himself.

If taken into account, it is not a simple majority that has no faith in CNN, but a huge majority is also skeptical of almost all of the so-called "news" sources.

My take has been somewhat different for years... and I have been posting it for over a decade.

Initially, I judged that 15-20% of Americans (who can vote) were clinically insane. That percentage has grown over the years to around 40%.

I am absolutely convinced.

Related to that, how about our presidents? and their families?

For any readers who practice introspection, and really would like to be informed about this last subject, do yourself a favor.

Read The First Family Detail, The Hidden Life of Presidents... by Ronald Kessler, which not only discusses Hillary (briefly), but all presidents, their wives and children; the arrogant, the civilized, the erratic and the truly bizarre, all of them going back to the 50s.

I thought I had a good grasp of them all, starting with Eisenhower.

I was wrong. I have read books about Hillary, over a dozen in the last 6 months, and this one added to what I had previously learned about her, filled out somewhat.

No one book is all-inclusive, or by any means perfect.

Many brain-dead people get their worldview from the network news media. CNN’s problem is that although these people are stupid, many of them are not quite stupid enough.

ROFL!!!

I have to admit the world's ability for rational thinking has been diminishing. (Must be a side effect of global warming and American oppression.)
