“Moderating” the network by forcing Erin Burnett to do a 10 minute piece on Hunter’s laptop. Pathetic.

While what Chris did was incredibly stupid, he’s not the only one who has crossed a similar line at CNN. Lemon helped Smollet, and that annoying ass Tapper helped some republican politician. Chris—who is an incredible journalist and anchor—was fired because he was going to take others down with him.
It’s just personal BS. When they got rid of the best damn anchor at CNN, they indicated they don’t care about keeping my viewership. ESPECIALLY when that disgusting Jeffrey Toobin was allowed to return after he was caught masturbating on a zoom meeting.
No way in hell I’m sticking around for Toobin and no Chris Cuomo.

To me, the huge problem is just that the news channels have tried to save money and pump up ratings by turning their backs on hard news.
I'm a liberal Democrat, but, when I turn on CNN or MSNBC (or, Fox News, if I ever watched it), I just don't want to see a reality show about life in prison. I don't want to see more than about one half-hour panel discussion show per day. I want to turn on a news channel like that and see... news.
And I want two people who can at least add up-to-date text crawls to the screen working around the clock. If something really big happens in Europe at 3 a.m. U.S. time, I at least want that to show up in a text crawl on U.S. news stations by about 4 a.m. I don't want to have a sense that U.S. TV news works bankers' hours. I get that news people have lives, and that there will mostly be reruns at 4 a.m., but I want to see actual news and reasonably fresh news features at 4 a.m., not reality TV shows, and not sobered-up bar stool drunks blathering about the world.
To add to this: I've been really paranoid about Russian propaganda since 2016. I'm probably on a DCUM troll list because I posted about my concerns about that so often. I halfway think that DCUM exists purely to serve as some kind of fishing net for Russian intelligence agencies.
But, in spite of that: I'm really sorry to see RT.com go, and I'd be sad to see what I think are state-controlled Chinese and Taiwanese news stations go, simply because they put a lot of energy into covering hard news.
I last had time to play with the TV remote a few years ago. But, when I did, it usually seemed as if RT.com had some news on. Maybe a slanted version of the Reuters and UPI feeds. Maybe not brilliant in nature. But news. If a TV station shows me what Putin is saying about the world: OK, maybe that's irritating at a time like this. But that has some clear-cut value.
Watching a washed-up comedian or politician express opinions about what Putin said rarely has any value whatsoever. It's a complete waste of air time.
Its sad when people pine for propaganda from RT because our own media is comparatively worse.

New CNN boss BANS staff from calling Trump's fraud claims 'big lie' https://mol.im/a/10921813 via https://dailym.ai/android
It is in fact 100% accurate to call it a big lie.
Why does the new CNN boss hate blunt truth?
If you can't see the problem with CNN, then you can't see the problem. Move on.
Since when is calling a lie a lie a problem?
Ohhh.... you must be one of those 60-some percent Republicans who only watches FOX and therefore doesn't think the lie is a lie.
How old are you? Do you remember life before 9-11, back when CNN just reported on current events and then moved on? They didn't pontificate or explain or yell. They just reported news.
Then it changed, to fill air-time and add drama to life, and then it changed again when MSM decided that the appropriate way to report on Trump was to act like Trump.
Any guess as to who it was that helped start that?

I used to watch CNN often (fixed TV channel to CNN in the evening). Over time I felt that CNN changed and all CNN anchors talked about the same things over and over. All they talked about seemed like about Trump (CNN seemed obsessed with Trump). I don’t like Trump either but I wanted to listen to news and current events other than Trump. Because of lack of diverse news topics and perspectives, I started watching some other TV programs (even Fox News) to hear different views. I wondered if Erin Burnett, Anderson Cooper, Don Lemon and others were given same scripts/direction to follow..
