CNN - King of the Bias Media
CNN ^ | 10/22/08 | Gary, Hillard, Ohio

Posted on 10/22/2008 12:19:27 AM PDT by GaryLee1990

I knew CNN was bias - but WOW! I was looking at one of CNN's web page...it was called "iReport".

This is basically where people send in their comments and pics about politics. Tonight, the subject was "Voting Early". CNN would put the person's picture up and include what they said. About every person said they voted for Obama. I searched for fifteen minutes for a person that said they voted for McCain - there wasn't one.

You would think that CNN would put one person in there - but ALL were for Obama and singing his praises. I know, I know - what do I expect from a left-wing news agency such as CNN - but come on! So everyone in this country is voting for Obama?

Also, while I was going to the next page of early voters - a video of Obama's wife popped up and was on the View with Whoopie announcing her as the next "First Lady". The crowd was cheering like crazy...just made me want to go crazy!

If anyone wants to see true liberal bias - then go to CNN's iReport web page right here. Be warned - it will make you sick to your stomach.

On the homepage of comcast, the top story is:
“Report: State pays for Palin’s kids’ travels”
And then a few down is:
“Obama opens double digit lead”

The US media might as well merge into one and call itself Pravda, but on the other hand, that would be an oxymoron.
It is so disgusting. Just another reason for me to stay away.

Living in France and french citizen i am mad about CNN and i sent them several mails saying they were trying to kill USA democracy while campaigning relentlessly for OSAMABAMA.

I think they are so owned they will not change but just wanted to tell them that some people know what they are doing steadily

Personally, I refuse to give Abc,Cbs,Nbc,Cnn a recorded hit on their sites. Reading the brief headers here and on other conservative sites gives me all I need to know about any particular tale they may spinning.

Bumping to add enemedia keyword to thread.
Remember to watch them do what they did after Bush beat Kerry. Talking about Kerry running a bad campaign...AFTER he lost.

You can’t really blame CNN for this.
This is part of a concerted disinformation campaign by the Left to dispirit Republicans.
The Left coordinates efforts to use all forms of online polls, blogs and newspage comments sections, social networking sites, and other vulnerable areas they can flood, such as iReport.

The question here is if CNN and others are complicit or oblivious in their being used in the Left’s propaganda war.

I look at CNN mobi on my Treo, which is more limited in headlines than the actual website: one day recently I texted a friend that I saw FIVE negative McCain/Palin headlines just on my Treo alone. And, I guess it goes without saying, no positives.

Gotta jump in here cause this one kills me.

“I knew CNN was bias” — Someone can have bias (noun) or be biasED (adjective). You can’t “be bias”.

If Obama wins this election, the MSM should be congratulated for finally being successful in creating a majority of mindless idiots in this country.

I checked out the Ireport feature awhile back -- I hadn't noticed it before (not sure when it started), so I gave it a look. Totally stacked. My question is, how are "Ireporters" selected? Does CNN accept just about anyone who applies, which would make them a self-selected crew, or does CNN screen and select?

If they're self-selected, some enterprising conservatives should get into the game.

...or be biasED (adjective).

You just used "biased" as a verb, professor.

Are you kidding me? They know exactly what they are doing.

Uhh yeah, ...the majority of US media outlets have been under the influence or direct control of foreign intelligence services for at least 40 years.

Personally, I avoid listening to anyone who's perception of politics or society is based upon television viewing.

We are going to lose. You can’t fight against such deep and extensive bias. It’s EVERYWHERE and it portrays 0bama dishonestly. The average Joe (unless he’s a plumber) doesn’t stand a chance when it comes to getting the facts.

You are going to lose only if you accept defeat.

Look at the drop in viewership for TV news (sic) programs and MSM newspapers (sic). People are catching on.

CNN is not biased.

They WORK for the DNC, and its candidates.

They are proud of their work.

Calling them biased gives them credibility as a political news organization, when they are clearly the DNC.

Where is the evidence that people are catching on?

Name ONE Republican that the MSM/DNC has not destroyed in the last 10 years?
