CNN lead anchor Aaron Brown said CNN's coverage would be viewed as historic because it has been broad and shown all sides of the story

yeah, from an extreme leftist point of view...

"all sides of the story".

So that's why they get their facts wrong. It's impossible to see all sides of a story if you're only looking at it from the left side. LOL.

Historic, yes, for letting "Arrogant" Aaron be their face in the face of stiff competition and the in the faces of
potential viewers.

Historic, yes for replacing the relatively non-offensive Connie Chung with somebody that has high negatives.

Boy, you got that right. I just watched about five minutes of CNN, just to see how they were covering the war, and I couldn't believe what I was seeing and hearing. The commentator was asking leading questions of the journalist from Newsweek, Chris Dickey, regarding the lack of enthusiastic welcome from the Iraqi people. The journalist had that tight lipped hateful expression that leftists get when they talk about the Bush administration, as he spat out the words that the Iraqis saw this as a war of colonialism, not liberation. Then the commentator asked with a sly smile, if there was anything that the administration could have gone through the UN and tried to work things out. I turned the channel, that was all I could take.

Several things turned me off to CNN - first of all was the dark or morose colors they used. Sure, war isn't a party, but FOX's red, white and blue was more appropriate - since the USA's butt was on the line in this war. CNN seemed to approach it as though the USA was some country they weren't associated with.

Secondly, none of the CNN people would ever smile! Even when there were some good things and some funny things - even their embedds did not appear to be having a good time. Whereas, FOX's people were just great! Even laughing at themselves and some of the things they had to go through (using baby wipes). It made them seem human, and not aloof!

Thirdly, CNN continually took the low ground. They continually charged the admin with not only not knowing what they were doing, but they also claimed that we were, so to speak, way beyond our capability.

After hearing about Jordan's confession - and realizing how cold and calculated CNN is - I believe CNN will continue to go down the tube and FOX will only continue to get better and better. Why? Because people are fed up with the left-wing drivel.
