I'm excited about this. I used to watch/read CNN and I had to quit bc of the obsession with Trump and and the over the top bias. I'm looking forward to a news network that attempts to provide unbiased news. We dont really have that anymore.
New CNN boss BANS staff from calling Trump's fraud claims 'big lie' https://mol.im/a/10921813 via https://dailym.ai/android |

| I would like to see all cable news channels return to journalism. I think 24 hour news was the beginning of the end for our society, not Twitter. Packaging up “info-tainment” segments for mass consumption is what set the stage for the division. It removed the seriousness and nuance that should be present when discussing politics. It gave everyone a front seat to random and rare violence in far away cities that made it seem down the street. |

Lol this is just bread and circuses. |

They should not call it a lie because lying is not illegal. Fraud is what it is and it is illegal. I fully back this decision. |

| He wants it called, “Trump’s election lie,” which I think is better, personally. |

| They are going to need to turn over nearly their entire staff to be successful. |

Does this mean that he will also ban the staff from using the GOP's framing of any issue? Likely not.
In any event, I doubt this will work - it will probably just turn off current viewers. |

CNN had Jason Miller and Kayleigh M on constantly at one point. Rick Santorum was one of their commentators.

+1 In this case, it seems too little too late. I kinda used to like Wolf Blitzer back in the day but even he became bipartisan the last few years. But the ones like Don Lemon, Brian Stelter, that guy who beatoff on the zoom call (forgot his name), all those kind all need to go. |

Seriously. They’ve got their work cut out for them. |

what is their definition of moderate?
Most of the Republican party right now is Right of Right. There are only a few Left of Lefts. We have at least 2 Democrats in name only and there are very few (none?) Republicans that dont tow the party line. This means that if you are providing a balanced perspective, it skews to the right based on the current makeup of players but the American public is not overall skewed to the right. Time and time again, there are more people who vote Democrat vs Republican. |

| I would enjoy just the news, both sides of the issue, without political commentary. |

It is in fact 100% accurate to call it a big lie. Why does the new CNN boss hate blunt truth? |
