The lawsuit and CNN’s defense -- that it produced opinion, not factual news -- may add fuel to the critics of the network which has long faced accusations of bias.
The network’s defense: CNN did not intend to harm, and its language was “opinion or ambiguous.”

"Jake Tapper started his career working for a Democrat politician and he has never been able to shake the habit. Trying to run cover for Biden's disastrous pullout from Afghanistan, he and his CNN show slimed a hero who saved the lives of those Biden put in jeopardy. Now CNN is facing a billion dollar defamation suit at the same time Tapper will be moderating the presidential debate featuring the politician he lied for. Unreal," Dan Schneider, Vice President at conservative media watchdog Media Research Center, told Just the News in a statement. His organization reported that CNN has since deleted the TV segment under scrutiny from its website.
But, as the well-known CNN personality gears up for that debate, he also finds himself in the middle of a lawsuit against his employer by security consulting firm Nemex Enterprises and its owner Zachary Taylor, who worked to help evacuate Afghanis following the chaotic Taliban takeover of that country.
BTTT
I will not watch the so called debate.
Democrat water boy tapper and cnn can gth lopsided.
Presidents Trump’s rallies are the way to go!
Alex Jones should have used that defense.
Watching CNN, Tapper, Oatmeal Brains himself, dems, GOPe/uniparty and collectively the left get slapped will be a joy to behold. Trump has proved this countless times he’s the one to do this.
Besides, the DNC/dems are going to use Biden’s pathetic performance as an excuse to knock him off the ticket before the riots at the DNC convention in Chicago coming up.
WHY IS CNN HOSTING THE DEBATES AT ALL????? THEIR VIEWERSHIP IS A FRACTION OF WHAT SOME RADIO SHOWS GET!!
EVERY ******* YEAR WE LET THEM DO THIS
WHY ARE LIBERALS ALWAYS RUNNING THE DEBATES????
Ditto. Will NOT watch.
Tapper has pre-selected Biden as winner & will make sure it’s clear to all who view that he is.
KHunt.
Why didn’t trump insist on different moderators? I think he’s smart enough negotiator to at least get one of his moderators. It seems he just accepted whatever was put in front of him.
CON
Cable Opinion Network
I will record the debate and watch it later if I learn from FreeRepublic that there is anything worth seeing. Anything worth seeing will be scrubbed from the CNN website and not re-shown.
Fun fact: Jake Tapper once dated Monica Lewinski through a Jewish singles network in Washington DC back in the day.
You are right, cnn is so despicable!
The deletion editing will be live augmented
with prolonged camera shots of themselves as they support joe nancy like with grimacing and destructive tearing of paper.
So transparent, so transparent
The only reason I can think of for a time delay is so that technical geniuses can substitute something for Biden’s missteps. Perhaps not change his words, but eliminate his staring into space dementia type pauses The debate will be simulcast on many outlets so the total time has to be the same. I do not trust CNN at all.
This debate should be broadcast live exactly like C-SPAN does congressional hearings.
Recording the debate for watching later records all the little nuances between the parts that do make it to YouTube clips. I usually delete something like a congressional hearing without watching it but I have it available in full just in case I want to.
I appreciate all the people who post those clips and the Freepers who provide links to them.
The time delay is for their editing and to prevent Trump from saying what needs to be said.
I wonder how much time it now takes to pull off the seemingly impossible job that they think that they are doing hoodwinking the majority?
