There needs to be accountability for his rambling, bloviating, heavy breathing and so-called expertise.
He should be ashamed of himself.

(4,667 posts)1. CNN is in disaster mode right now.
I think the reporter to the left of Tobin was the one who first reported the wrong ruling in the case. It took CNN an amazing 7 minutes to correct the mistake, as all of their "expert" pundits went on trashing the Obama administration.
CNN is now a distant 3rd in the cable news race. This would have been unheard of 10 years ago. John King's show has been canceled. Erin's "Up Close" loses by several hundred thousand viewers to the REPEAT of Hardball at 7. Nothing at CNN comes close to FOX. CNN has recorded its worst TV ratings in more than 20 years.
CNN made the decision to be "FOX Light" and it cost them. Their credibility drops with each passing day. One day CNN will realize that FOX owns the 'crazy right wing viewers." Going after them is a wast of time. Whats left in the "viewership pie" are people who want news and information without the ridiculous right wing propaganda. Until CNN realizes this, they will continue to slide.

I feel they have only a short time before they are gone or at least changed completely.

Most are so much trying to show they are not liberal they have become very conservative. All news organization need to understand conservative will call them liberal unless they tell the FOX BS. I wish someone would accept the label of liberal and not worry about it.
