Hurricane Harvey- a major dangerous catastrophic Category 4 storm smashed into Texas last night and CNN covered Trump news. So we had to rely on Fox News and the weather channel for information. CNN talked about 1 man being pardoned while millions of American citizens are in danger of losing everything including their lives. How low can CNN sink? CNN from 6:00pm to 2:00am was non stop Trump except for 30 second clips once a hour. At one point, CNN and Don Lemon called a congressman and asked about the hurricane and then switched the topic to Trump. The congressman stopped Don Lemon and said we have a catastrophic event unfolding and you're asking me about Trump. CNN has officially lost all credibility.

CNN refused to cover Hurricane Harvey video last night

I'm amazed at the hypocrisy of CNN. CNN acting as if they care about those people in Texas when yesterday Hurricane Harvey was a secondary story to a guy that Trump pardoned.

It's Saturday night- Weather Channel, Weather Nation and Fox News has covered the hurricane since 8:00 tonight- non stop coverage. The Mayor of Houston has been on Fox News and he wanted the world to know the danger that the people of Houston are facing as the flood waters is rising. As of midnight, 12 million people are in a flood warning.

Houston authorities statement:
If flooding is occurring in your area and waters are rising, you need to take your emergency kit, your personal documents, and your family to the highest level of your house, such as the attic. TAKE SOMETHING WITH YOU TO THE ATTIC THAT YOU CAN CUT THROUGH THE ROOF SO YOU DO NOT END UP TRAPPED SO YOU CAN BE RESCUED LATER

Meanwhile CNN has taken the Night off and is playing a documentary over and over. CNN continues to refuse to cover Hurricane Harvey.

This is how CNN covers Hurricane Harvey

This is not about politics - this is about people in danger.

When Texas needs Federal aid, they will need congress to approve that aid. If Members of Congress just watched CNN, they would not know Hurricane Harvey existed. Also, this state is going to need help from the general public nationwide. Is CNN going to inform the public of this dire situation?

This is about the great people in the state of Texas that is going to need a lot of help and support when this is over.

Sunday Morning: Nothing has changed. CNN is covering Trump 24/7 and The people of Texas is secondary. People on roofs, in attics and in dire situation and they continue to talk Trump politics.

LINK to Houston Local News Coverage since CNNs priority For the last 48 hours Has been discussing the pardon of one guy and the rest of the world doesn't exist

Well, in their defense, Joe is a greater threat to mankind than a little shower. Joe being pardoned will certainly lead to cataclysmic devastation across the galaxy.

It was barely a cat 4. Frankly, I think they bumped it up for ratings.

Well, it only was affecting a relatively conservative state. What's the story?

You would get more real news watching Fox anyway. CNN is the Clinton News Network so for the next 4 years they will be playing Donald Trump hate speech.

I like how CNN accused Trump of trying to take attention away from Harvey


You know you have a choice of what to cover, right CNN?

Is this the thread where we get angry over others not being angry enough? I want to make sure I'm in the right place

CNN is a joke. I only have CNN and MSNBC with SlingTV and I laugh at their dumbasses every morning while my wife (no pics) has it on in the background while getting dressed. She thinks it's hilarious too over the 24/7 Trump melt

No big deal imo.

The few people that tune into CNN are doing it for the lulz or actually believe the shite they spew. Screw the hurricane

CNN said Trump created Harvey as a false flag for the pardon.
