You cannot defend the indefensible.

Cooper: You have every right to be outraged today and angry and never watch this network again. But do you think staying in your silo and only listening to people you agree with is going to make that person go away?




To think I used to respect this man. Nothing about this program was fair or balanced. Your network allowed a man convicted (FOUND GUILTY) of sexual assault and defamation to a full 70 minutes on prime time television unchecked to spout his lies. You stacked the crowd with trump supporters that laughed and cheered J6, the sexual assault and the stolen election lie. You are a joke and you should be ashamed that your job is more important than the truth.

You know what will make that person go away, we will vote. Blue wave!

We are not the ones that are living in a silo Anderson. You all became the new Fox News last night. Licht Licks.

All that stayed, IMHO, are sell outs.

And here is Anderson preaching to us about silos.

If not for the writers' strike, I'd like to hear Colbert's response...

I liked him...no more. I haven't watched CNN in about a year. They are useless.

When they cut away from John Kerry speaking live before the Senate to show some tape of a right-winger, "for balance" they said. I sent them an irate message and turned it off for good. The two I didn't mind were Don Lemon and Anderson Cooper, guess there's nobody left that I'd consider watching.

maybe, just maybe, if only OAN and NewsMax gave the asshole a platform, he would have no chance to win the general election. 25 percent of our people have been brain washed and that's a shame... but all CNN did was allow him to spew propaganda to the some of the rest.
