23. CNN is left-wing? News to me.
Of course, to rightwingers anything not right wing is considered left wing. If it doesn't have a distorted and dishonest right wing bias, it's the left.

Simplifies things for little brains, I guess. The idea of something being unbiased - in the real sense - cannot exist because the only thing they see as unbiased is right wing bias.

A real conundrum for them!

29. Are you arguing that commercial success indicates quality?
Does that mean McDonald's is the best restaurant in the world?

35. I don't care if Faux News cares either. I do care and that hope
that many viewer's suspicions about Fox's lack of truthiness is confirmed by what Rick had to say. Fox news is conducted by bliovating liars, not honest journalists.

38. at least CNN gets to interview Obama tomorrow
then again, that's no big deal. Every real news organization, including Univision News, will be interviewing him.

FOX has spent years bashing CNN and MSNBC. It is good to see CNN fight back with a VERIFIABLE response!

8. I wouldn't say 99%, but just look at the previous place of employment............
............for Glen Beck. CNN has their Candy "fat lady" Crowley and Bill Schneider who are both right wing losers. And, don't forget about "iron man" Blitzer who is in my opinion kind of a "news clown".

19. I have to think that Lou is now trying to catch the attention of Fixed News.
He is getting more and more out there every time I see him. He used to have some semblance of sanity and now it seems to have all dissipated. Maybe he saw what Glen Beck did and decided he can do that too.

21. Wolf Blitzer is pretty good imo
CNN also has Christiane Amanpour who is excellent, and Michael Ware, and Fareed Zakaria, and others.

39. I wasn't slamming CNN per se, Just some of the "news people"....
......who have worked there. You are quite right about Amanpour and Ware. Zakaria is a neoconservative, although from what little I have seen of him SEEMS to be fair. Blitzer is a shithead. The reason being when he is interviewing someone or speaking with someone about a subject that anyone in their right mind knows is wrong or an outright lie, or even just misleading I have never seen him question or correct the person. He's like a robot with a beard.

30. I'd sure like to see a series of Distorting Not Reporting ads.
There's a lot of material to work with.

36. CNN has not been in the business of fighting wars with other
news outlets until now. They are there to report the news which they appear to do quite well without being biased. Commentators are not necessarily considered reporters.

16. Speak for yourself.
I'm sure I can find out alllllll about it without going to either channel. Maybe without turning the TV on at all.

14. I don't get how a few brain addled birthers drooling on the lawn
constitutes a story anyway. Small demonstrations like that have not been news for years. Can't CNN pick its battles better? I suspect their motives.

18. It is good to hear and see that on CNN and
not just on this site. Hell, Fox ought to tell that to their loyal viewers. Nothing seems to get through to them anyway.

22. DId Michael Scheuer just break the law in this video?
I apologize for this being off topic, but did this Fox News guest simply lie? Or did he just break the law? Everyone needs to read this article on Michael Scheuer.

24. If you watch CNN International you can see some really good objective reporting & programs
I have been having a look at Faux over the past few months to get to know how the enemy is operating and can honestly say that in that time I have not seen ONE story on that NeoCON voicebox that was about something happening outside of America.

To remedy that, is there a Faux news International equivalent to the excellent CNN International channel? No!! Is Faux news spreading it's NeoCON/arguably racist but certainly xenophobic propaganda all around the world - including with approx. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,184837,00.html">100 cable operators in the two largest Muslim populated countries in the world, Pakistan and Indonesia? Yes!

25. Faux News, the home of nothing but "false news".
Rick Sanchez keeps it real, baby! I can see Faux News be off the air in about 5 or 10 years. Ha!
