All News is entertainment. Not all entertainment is news.

CNN has become more of a tabloid based on cable.

a different discussion than the one we're having though I don't disagree. Prince dying was endlessly discussed on all of the networks for 2 weeks.

what i'm saying is that fox doesn't really make any bones about having a conservative slant. No one honestly thinks fox or msnbc are straight down the middle. CNN is a different story. Fox is distinguished from both of them by not having been caught red handed fabricating something and then presenting it as current news. They also haven't been busted rigging a debate.

cnn rigged a debate...not even remotely in question. Hillary's campaign received debate questions from someone employed by CNN. This is a matter of indisputable fact

now is it reasonable for me to believe that CNN rigged the debate between trump and Hillary while the same person was employed there? You bet. It's also reasonable to just assume that they did it...I hope trump blacklists them and only them.

the only way I see them regaining credibility is by completely cleaning house...completely and even then it would take some time for them to regain trust by reporting the news honestly and somehow open their network up to the public as a way of providing transparency.

that won't happen. cnn by this time next year if not sooner will have fired jeff zucker but it won't be enough. their ratings post election are in the toilet.
