Reporting the news with a deep bias and pushing their agenda colluding with a political party is not even remotely close to yelling fire in a theater...
There is this thing called the marketplace where viewers pick and choose winners and losers...
Or would you rather have the next libtard administration with the help of a democrat congress shut down any media that doesn’t agree with them?
Be careful what you wish for, one day you might get in spades...
And there have been calls and petitions to have the FCC revoke the “license” of Fox News Channel.
One comment found on such a petition page:
>>As pointed out numerous times, the FCC doesn’t license Fox News. And it’s not going to judge the licenses of Fox broadcast stations based on the content of a channel it doesn’t regulate. The petition is a waste of time.
——Call me crazy but I think fixing an election is probably against the law.——
I’m not sure what CNN is doing is “fixing” an election, they certainly have taken a side...
Prove it a court room and if found guilty hang them from a lamp post...
If businesses cannot make a profit by broadcasting factual news instead of Demonicrat propaganda slogans, then yes, maybe I will have to get used to singing around the campfire (in addition to getting my news and information from reliable internet sites).
It is a conspiracy to defraud the public.
All this discussion of how bad CNN is. Why has nobody asked Clinton about this huge cheat? No apologies? If she were a republican.....
State-run Media is the very definition of yelling fire! in a crowded movie theater. Propaganda can and does get people killed. Millions of them.
And Crony-Capitalist Media in the United States is nothing if it is not “state-run media.” “Marketplace” you say? What marketplace?
bttt
OK...I get it you’re angry. But there are a few tiems you need to examine first.
A) CNN doesn’t operate over the airwaves and as such doesn’t need an FCC license. In the world of Cable/Pay TV no broadcast license is necessary.
B) As a PRIVATE entity CNN can do as they wish. You are paying for it in your cable bill either way. Which is why cable companies have “packages” instead of “a la carte”. This includes all of the “dish” operators too.
IF they wish to embarrass themselves by keeping Gloria Borger, they are welcome to do so.
IF you live in a city that has an airport, you should be nagging the city council /county legislature about removing CNN.
I bithch regularly to my cable operator about CNN, MSNBC, Univision, ESPN, and a variety of other channels that are in my “package” that I don’t watch, and I resent having to pay for them. That is your only recourse.
Yes.
Further, I think we need an American Pinochet.
-—Organizations have worked behind the scenes to provide complimentary news coverage to one side.——
Complimentary news coverage is now considered”fixing” an election?
I’m not defending CNN, but I think we need to be careful on what words we use to start asking to take a media outlet as vile as CNN off the air...
That might come back to seriously bit us in the ass...
I don’t have a link but there were at least 4 threads on separate aspects of the damning fox attack last evening as it was in process.
NOT LATER, BUT UP TO THE MINUTE.
No you are confusing laudatory news coverage with Conspiring behind the scenes to fix an election and without the public's knowledge while claiming the opposite.
False advertising and conspiracy to defraud the public are both very much against the law.
You should study the emails leaked by wikileaks wherein CNN and several other news organizations conspire behind the scenes with Clinton and are bragging about it. There is no doubt they fixed the Primary Election for Hillary. And they hid it from the public.
here are two of the threads

Thanks, I’m very up to date on all of this information...
I’m simply not real keen on giving any more power to any authority in the government to play with 1st amendment issues
Yeah, some folks in the media should see jail time, but I’m not about to agree CNN should be shut down...
