14. Since the convention, I have boycotted CNN
Sometimes TV coverage of politics is not very good, or not favorable to our candidate.

But this is something completely different. This is a DELIBERATE attempt to CHANGE the news, by CNN & USA Today. And these efforts are led by Page, Woodruff, Blitzer, Schneider,etc.

This distortion is blatant & must come from corporate powers-that-be.
They are all on the same page, singing the same song...it is so obvious, it has to be arranged.

However, an exception: Newsnight with Aaron Brown is an hour of fresh air, probing questions, thoughtful insight, & not 1 screaming talking head. Only problem is, he vacations quite frequently, & his substitute goes by the CNN playbook.
