mean, to be fair I'm sure a very low percentage of Trump supporters watch CNN as it is
That isn't what they should be concerned about.

There are a lot of people that are fence riders and to personally announce to those people that you can't really be trusted is unwise

So he just admitted they don't report the news, they shape it. Good to know, way to double down on being fake news.

CNN is basically tabloid news at this point and they are still mad that Hillary lost the election.


Wolf blitzer panic attacking and forcing Jake tapper to scour the touch screen board in order to find Hillary votes where cities already reported 99% was some of the most underrated television I have ever seen.

I couldn't believe a station that has a slogan "most trusted name in news" went to that level of desperation.

How do progs even defend that anymore?

Nope. You can defend Zucker's right to attempt extortion without being an extortionist yourself. The comparison with Assange is interesting in that veracity of any materials Assange released has not been questioned. OTOH, an hour does not pass in which someone at CNN does not make a dubious claim.

Well I just woke up a few hours ago and according to my routine I'm doing okay. 87 seems high.

Is it difficult to swallow and push propaganda as an educated and intelligent man?

Threatening the United States president telling him that you will intentionally try to harm relations with foreign countries by broadcasting biased misinformation isn't treasonous?

Damn, I get being a contrarian which is what you try so hard to do on here but this is trying too hard.
No. If that is treason then Donald Trump intentionally spreading birther gate with lies about sources, etc. was treason too. Youbalk are contradicting yourselves.

I didn't realize that 2008 and 2012 Donald trump referred to himself as an unbiased news source and had a slogan as "the most trusted name in news".

Thanks.

This is amazing to me. "Shaping the perception of Trump" worldwide is admitting to intentional news spin.

Maybe Trump will purchase CNN and immediately shut it down.

I seem to remember many people saying, including myself at one point, that Trump couldn't win the white house due to the press obviously gunning for him. I was wrong, thankfully.

You're still pretending the standard rules apply here. Trump doesn't need media support. Media trust from the public is less than 30%. Why would it matter if a fake news site like CNN continues spewing fake news? It didn't work during the election.

Zucker is an idiot. CNN is owned by Time Warner which has a merger agreement with AT&T. In order for the merger to go through they need the approval of the Regulators who are now controlled by Trump. All sorts of presser can be applied to Time Warner and AT&T in order for the merger to happen.

A bit unprofessional, but you're missing the broader point. No president has ever won a war with the press.



Trump isn't at war with the press. Just certain segments of it, he is winning and given time CNN will be reduced to national enquirer status.

I absolutely have faith in you, 87 seems about right give or take.

When was the last time you watched CNN?

I watched CNN for the first time, in a long time, Saturday night. Anderson Cooper had a panel of 10 people. 9 flaming liberals and one poor Republican guy who couldn't get a word in edge wise. They'd ask him a question, he'd start to respond, then the other 9 retards would start talking over him.

CNN is done, Navy. But keep pretending anyone thinks they are anything other than another arm of the Democrats.

The press didn't gun for Trump. They played it soft to keep the election close. It's not a difficult thing to see. What they're doing now is what they wanted to do during the election, but they're prostitutes and a general election is like an Aircraft Carrier pulling into Hong Kong. They played a part. Clinton's sorry arse got most of the negative coverage in the weeks leading up to the election.

Pretend to not understand that and I'll share proof. The President is the President. But he isn't some Magico.
