I had a hard time finding it but IIRC someone here posted it. It was like a CNN feedback site. I'll see if I can find it for you.

I tweeted Tapper. I know not likely he will see it, but hopefully the opinions are compiled ?

I wonder why sometimes , when CNN or MSNVC, or CBSMNCBR, or whatever station, puts on some stuff we agree with, a few/some/many good folks here start to believe these audio and picture shows have "changed their tune."

Their "tune" is, with very few exceptions, $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ - with varying degrees of logical, intelligent discourse,...depending on how the $$$$$$ is rolling in......... or not.............

Blowing the cheeto and talking about how Dump is a great president "like Ray-gun."

Barf all around.

I still watch MSNBC, but whenever they start to spew the repub talking points, or have an idiotic spin doctor on, I turn them off.

are. They also keep getting into hot water. CNN would have to do something extremely egregious to lose my support....like turn into fake faux for instance. Not some bullshit like this.

So we have RUMP slamming CNN - because he knows how truthful and dangerous to him they are ...and we have liberals echoing RUMP's degradation of CNN.
That is just great.

Zucker's CNN game plan has not changed. AT&T is still seeking a merger with Time Warner and there for CNN will kiss Donnie Puss Bags big ass. Nothing new,just a repackage of the same old shite.

We stopped in September of 2016. Having personal acquaintance still employed by CNN,and listening to what this person is telling us,nothing is really changing.

They didn't have him on very often, and they got rid of after he started his B.S. about Hillary. But MSNBC allowed Hugh Hewitt get is own show! Can't trust anyone anymore, when they what the ratings to jump?

ALL cable news has a "let's you and him fight" format. In entertainment media there is reality TV that is designed to decide and humilitate people. Currently, the media is simply a platform for conflict and antagonism.
