I feel for you. I always ask can I turn it over, and to avoid pissing others off I put a sport on, but once I was having breakfast at a hotel , and CNN was on. I was in the mountains of TN. I turned the TV over and every person in that room started clapping , because I turned from CNN to FOX. All week I was there the people working at the hotel put FOX on in the morning.

Why airports etc have to have the crap from CNN is beyond me.

Our dentist got smart, a few years back...and only has the Travel Channel or Food Network on :)


That’s smart on several levels, including watching the Travel Channel or Food Network is calming. Always a good thing when waiting at the dentist!

If those recordings include admissions that CNN staffers were taking "under the table" money from any organization linked to the likes of George Soros and Tom Steyer, CNN will be in BIG trouble. Jeff Zucker's job status as CNN President could be on the line. And this is the same Jeff Zucker (as NBC TV network President) that massively botched the transition from Jay Leno to Conan O'Brien on The Tonight Show in 2009 to early 2010 (Zucker should have given Leno a $50 million "retirement payment" complete with non-compete clause and let O'Brien find time to put his mark on The Tonight Show).

How badly could this backfire? People not knowing they are being recorded come out like victims, because well... they are.

CNN thugs not journalists could be without jobs if/when Trump cuts their funding from our worthless State Department.

Almost all of the corporate media are in financial trouble, except CNN!

Why is CNN, Certified Not News, in potential financial trouble?

CNN apparently receives programming reimbursement from the U.S. State Department via The Bureau of International Information Programs; the same State Department program that pays Facebook for content. CNN is not as reliant on ad revenue because they get tens of millions from the U.S. State Department.

CNN rats know that when President Trump stops, this SOS funding, when he is president.

That will create massive unemployment among CNN’s left wing thugs posing as journalists.

“I really hope there’s something here.”

me too. Out of all of his many “Al Capone’s Vault” type of announcements, O’Keefe has actually come through with anything important only a couple of times.

“(ILWT = I Love Writing That) “

I’m not tired of writing “President Trump” either. I particularly love to use the full title when I post on leftist news sites and leftist commentary sites, because I know that merely reading “President Trump” raises the angst and blood pressure levels of leftist loons.

CNN Journalist ‘Governments Pay Us To Fake News’, Shocking Exposé

According to Amber Lyon, CNN is routinely paid by the US government to selectively report on certain events and make up fake news stories.

According to Amber Lyon, a three-time Emmy award winning journalist, CNN is routinely paid by the US government and foreign governments to selectively report on certain events and make up fake news stories.

Furthermore, the Obama administration pay CNN for editorial control over some of their content.

Redflagnews.com report:

Back in March 2011, CNN sent a four person team to Bahrain to cover the Arab Spring. Once there, the crew was the subject of extreme intimidation amongst other things, but they were able to record some fantastic footage. As Glenn Greenwald of the UK’s Guardian writes in his blockbuster article from September 4th 2012:

“In the segment, Lyon interviewed activists as they explicitly described their torture at the hands of government forces, while family members recounted their relatives’ abrupt disappearances. She spoke with government officials justifying the imprisonment of activists. And the segment featured harrowing video footage of regime forces shooting unarmed demonstrators, along with the mass arrests of peaceful protesters. In sum, the early 2011 CNN segment on Bahrain presented one of the starkest reports to date of the brutal repression embraced by the US-backed regime.

Despite these accolades, and despite the dangers their own journalists and their sources endured to produce it, CNN International (CNNi) never broadcast the documentary. Even in the face of numerous inquiries and complaints from their own employees inside CNN, it continued to refuse to broadcast the program or even provide any explanation for the decision. To date, this documentary has never aired on CNNi.

Having just returned from Bahrain, Lyon says she “saw first-hand that these regime claims were lies, and I couldn’t believe CNN was making me put what I knew to be government lies into my reporting.”

Here is a segment of the Bahrain report that Amber Lyon and her team put together. CNNi refused to allow it to air because the Bahrain Government had paid them not to show it.

James O'Keefe is NOT an Activist. That's just Left Wing bias from the AP. He is one of the few REAL Investigative Journalist.

Yup. AP is Fake News.

CNN shouldn’t be accused of being simply biased - favouritism and unfair coverage has long existed in the media which plagues this Republic.

No, no no.

CNN is an ideological, Marxist, violent terrorist , extremist, anti-American cartel.

If Gitmo is good enough for foreign Marxist terrorists, it’s good enough for domestic ones too

We had to fly last week and were dreading the two-hour wait with CNN on. The TVs were silent with black screens. Winning!
