Not trolling you, but CNN would be my last choice for anything.

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.


CNN and every liberal in this country hate the fact that they are losers to a man who doesn't play by their rules. They would give up everything good America stands for if it could harm Trump. Anything moral or patriotic is an affront to their beliefs and they are hell bent to bring this country to it's knees to get their way!

I was flipping channels. Only the Weather Channel, Weather Nation and Fox covered the hurricane in detail. CNN only played 30 second spots of hurricane coverage-. CNNs only focus was on Trump. Don Lemon and the rest of CNN were unhinged that Trump broke the news of the pardon on hurricane night. That forced CNN to choose between the people in danger or politics and CNN chose politics.

Tonight is a replay of last night.

Weather channel, weather nation and Fox News is covering the Texas Catastrophe and

CNN is ignoring Texas and playing a documentary that they can play anytime.

CNN is taking the night off- they can't find news to cover so let's play a documentary over and over. Meanwhile the mayor of a Houston is on Fox News trying to let the world know how bad the situation is for his city as flood waters is rising and many people are in danger.

But don't worry CNN will be back tomorrow covering everything Trump and blaming the hurricane on global warming.

12 million people in the flood warning zone at midnight. Tropical Bands of rain will last through Thursday. You can catch this news on the weather channels and Fox.

Meanwhile CNN is playing repeat shows. Is this for real? CNN absolutely refuses to cover this storm.

Houston Authorities Statement:

[quote]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[/quote

CNN- is this newsworthy??? Or is Trump talk still your dominant story.

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.

Not if you are at an airport where CNN is the only channel on.

Yeah, the whole country knows what's going on. I live in Cali.

Texas will be fine. I assure you it won't float away. And you bumping your own posts every 20 minutes (and probably crying about it on other social media platforms) will change nothing.

CNN With Jake Tapper is presently working hard on the pardon of 1 guy while 12 million are in a dire situation.

CNNs priority is not to cover Houston but to cover Politics and Trump. CNN is disconnected from the people of this country. Their focus - 24 hours a day is Trump only Trump. Thousands of people were rescued last night. Towns have been devastated. People on roofs and in attics. The situation in Southwest Texas is getting worse but Jake Tapper and CNN could care less.

Meanwhile, Fox and MSNBC is covering Hurricane Harvey

My grandpa was killed because he had his TV on CNN and did not realize a hurricane was coming.

CNN is still over-saturated with political bullshite - particularly Trump. They have been pretty useless during all of this just like they were last year during the flood.
