CNN’s brand continues to go in a downward spiral, according to a poll. A YouGov poll shows that CNN falls behind MSNBC and Fox News in brand perception, the Daily Caller reports.
The poll asked respondents, “If you’ve heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth, was it positive or negative?”
Of the three cable networks, Fox News was the only network to score a neutral brand perception. CNN and MSNBC both scored negative on brand perception.
“CNN’s negative acceleration point happened in mid-October 2016, around the time Anderson Cooper interviewed Melania Trump, notably discussing her husband’s famous ‘Access Hollywood’ tape,” YouGov’s Ted Marzilli notes.
“Also at that time, a local North Carolina Republican office was firebombed, causing conservative-leaning media to pounce on CNN for suggesting Trump’s rhetoric spurred the incident.”
Marzilli adds that particular news events and President Trump’s bashing of the network’s news coverage have taken a toll on CNN.
Trump has consistently called CNN “fake news,” along with the New York Times, for its not-so-favorable coverage of his administration and its penchant for making several mistakes when reporting on the administration:

This is from Breitbart???
No, fake news is not unfavorable coverage. If a news event really happened as described, even if it is unfavorable to Trump, it is by definition NOT fake news.
Fake news is simply news that never happened.
Some fake news is created and distributed to advance a leftist, anti-Trump political agenda. Examples:

And that's the way it is...
Let them crash and burn.
I think that were cable and dish TV to go “a la carte”, CNN would be dead.
In my yearly phone call to Time Warner about my cable rate, I constantly bitch, and say I don’t want to pay CNN, I never watch it and have it blocked on the parental control. Same with MSNBC, and ESPN, and Univision, and a whole bunch of stuff where I don’t want them getting views. And yes, they are tracking what you watch on your cable box.
CNN should save itself. Make up some more #fakenews about Trump and Sessions. Grant air time to democrats throwing a temper tantrum that a 2 year old would be put in time-out for. Give Pelosi more air time. Oh and Steponallofus.
I am Fake Jake Tapper and I am from CNN.
COURAGE!
Certainly Not News.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of duplicitous commie punks.
So that’s not the plane that flew into a Black Hole?
I complained to Southwest Airlines about CNN at the sirline gate (Atlanta) and I got a letter back saying that the airport authorities themselves are the ones setting the rules.
So this is something to take up with the local airports.
People are expected to keep the noise on their cell phones down, so how is it that we have to hear the sound on these TVs. It’s an invasion of our privacy.
