I can't believe the Clinton News Network was my #1 source for news, but that was only a year ago. I used to look at Fox News as a joke and still do to some extent but at least their reporters have shown more integrity than CNN has.

My main problem with CNN is their obvious bias - look, it's a left-leaning newspaper so I don't have a problem with some bias as all sources of media have bias, but they literally sweep everything Hillary has done under the rug and exaggerate everything Trump has said. It's bothersome because while I don't have a problem with CNN preferring Hillary they make it so obvious that they desperately want her to win and all that does is turn people like me away.

Meanwhile you got CNN diehards that refuse to call out CNN, believe everything CNN says, and have the most aggressive attitude to Trump supporters/sympathizers simply because all they hear are the bs CNN spew and not the terrible acts committed by Hillary and co. I can't support such a company

Between what is being put on TV and information being leaked by wikileaks it is clear that CNN is operating on behalf of politicians instead of reporting the news.

Do not bother wasting your time watching this for the following:
-Biased
-They DO NOT cover other real important news that are being released re. Crooked Hillary.
-They talk about things that are insignificant COMPARED to other pending real news which is not covered.
-They Trump bash. At most, 1 or 2 trump supporters will interview against a TEAM of Liberals who attack back to back while ignoring real rising problems.

Some of the most blatant biased propaganda imaginable. This network has been shown to be essentially a 4th branch of government in a democratic society. This network slanders and belittles all of its opposition while simultaneously stabbing the democratic process in the back. Absolute filth, you may as well be watching 'jersey shore'.

Propaganda Driven Swill
October 13, 2016

The Clinton News Narrative bias is beyond propaganda ever seen in this country. The people over at CNN must be big fans of Kim Jong-il's book, The Great Teacher of Journalist.

Clinton News Network
October 13, 2016

CNN's coverage is totally biased. They do not fairly cover the many scandals of Hillary Clinton, the DNC, and many others working with the Clinton campaign. Meanwhile, they fabricate outright lies about Donald Trump and have falsely and unjustly branded him as a racist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic, sexist, you name it. TURN OFF CNN!

CNN was my source for all news up until this election. The recent revelations about the news network however cannot be tolerated in a profession as important as journalism. It's yellow journalism at best, and outright lies at its worst these days.

Even around 10 years ago, CNN was fairly credible, some satellite offices in other area's of the world are not that bad yet. But CNN housed in the US is by far the worst news network on the air today. It honestly cant even be considered news. It's more of a TMZ than TMZ is. The pieces are editorials, fully scripted biased echo chamber 'reporting' (cant even be considered that).

What can be expected when the actual journalists (not talking heads) have almost all been replaced by liberal arts college grads that are 'offended' or attack anyone and anything that does not fit their narrative.

You might as well go to your local high school newspaper for the news, as CNN is only an entertainment company, no longer actual news.

For a company that calls itself the Clinton News Network there sure isn't a lot of Clinton here. It's all about Trump. All day all long. Wtf is wrong with CNN? I was going to vote for Hillary but after 2 months of CNN I'm voting for Trump. Help I can't stop myself.
