I'm curious, do you think that CNN is left wing media? Hmm, let see. Looking over the past few years regarding their network I remember embedded journalists with the military during the invasion of Iraq smiling and hyping up the situation. CNN reporters putting the war on the big screens with great excitement. Then you had the constant fear mongering over terrorists and the color coded alert system. Then you had CNN confusing the issue of climate change for long stretches of time so as to keep it a debate. Then you had a large increase in coverage of religious stories and religious undertones in normal reporting since the arrival of Kiran Chetry & John Roberts on American Morning (attempt to attract the religious right). To top it off, their number one rated show has made illegal immigration their top story for about 2 years. Ah, so that's the opposition to right wing media hmm... Ok, I understand now.
