CNN = Fox wannabes.
Is it just me or has CNN taken severe turn toward the Far Far Far right. While they were always moderately right of center they are spin spin spinning everything like Rove himself was writing dialog.

1. That picture of Nancy Pelosi 'Negotiating with Terrorists?' was the last straw.
All of cable news sucks. Except MSNBC's Keith O., of course.

3. The Righties see it as the Communist News Network
The MSM is like the proverbial elephant being described by six blind yogis. What you think it is depends on where you stand.

6. Have they picked the AM team yet?
I'd be interested how right they want to go with the AM show.

10. I always thought they were just as bad as Fox, but slightly more covert
about it.

They like to get us thinking that they are fair, so that when they pull shit off like this pelosi thing, they won't get attacked as harshly.

Since Turner sold CNN to Times-Warner, I consider CNN as much of a propaganda channel as the rest of them. Just cause they were called the Clinton News Network at one point, they are a corporate interest and not unbiased.
