Nov 2016

entire election season, their pathetic willingness to give him endless free time and positive coverage (including live cuts to his rallies when they ignored Clinton until they began getting serious complaints), their willingness to report on EVERY Clinton "scandal" while ignoring Trump's bullshit unless it hit them in the face, and they were forced to cover it (as with the Access Hollywood tape), the paying of Trump surrogates Corey Lewandowski and the appalling Boris -- well, I have lost whatever naive faith I once had in cnn's ability to report news.
