I'm glad I don't subscribe to CNN. What was once a highly regarded news source, despite having Mehdi Hasan on as a guest, has sunk to a new low.

Problem is where are you going to find an Insane Clown buttplug in their right mind? Jennings and Urban are as normal as you are going to get in that regard so those 2 get prime time whereas the late night are relegated to the lunatic fringe the likes of Girdusky and Abel Maldonado. Maldonado did make it to prime time with AC360 one time and Anderson wasn't having any of it finally telling Maldonado he was full of shit. Haven't seen him on CNN since. As for Girdusky good on Mehdi for confronting him. That should happen more often. Most of the time the liberals just cluck their tongues and proceed with their scripted remarks.

CNN is culpable in Trump's very dangerous history. When he first ran, CNN showed him all the time, Hilary Clinton much less. They continued to give him an open platform for many years. Balanced journalism, the inability to forgo whatever profits they gained from Trump's popularity, which they enhanced by showing him all the time? Ervin Staub

Scott Jennings was the last straw for me, I no longer watch CNN because of him & their platforming Trump as if he were a normal candidate. He is not fit physically and more importantly, mentally to hold office.

Leigh "Politics Girl" McGowan from Youtube has been awesome lately on CNN panels battling back against the Bothsides BS from right wing pundits like Scott Jennings on the network. She clips her appearances on her channel and has been BUSY this past month vs. the Pundit Provacatuers…

Speak with your wallets folks! Like the WaPo 200k that unsubbed due to Bezos' decision to block his editors from endorsing Kamala in 2024, I cancelled MAX Streaming back in early July as the Biden Bashing was 24/7 post CNN's Debate, as David Zaslav CEO of WB Discovery MAX and CNN basically said "We endorse any candidate that supports OUR interests via no regulation and Monopoly munching all competition." so, yeah.

Bye bye WB Disc. MAX CNN, Unsubbed.

I can’t believe people don’t walk out of that round table. Just get up and walk out. Why participate in any defense of the indefensible?

Stopped watching CNN. Scott Jennings needs to go and can’t believe he is still on, I guess it’s all about the bottom line. I used to think Abby Phillips was decent, her show is awful. Corporate media has gone down the toilet.

Because they’re part of the CORRUPT CORPORATE-OWNED MEDIA.

Because news shows with “opposing viewpoints” are just Jerry Springer with less chair throwing.

It's not just CNN'S continued practice of booking Maga's daily, but it's also,especially true for the Sunday Shows ! I literally turn them off, because there's absolutely No Fact Checking from the commentator's. Terrific article this morning ☕ Maj,and will reStack ASAP 💯👍🇺🇸💙🌊🌊🌊🌊

CNN is a division of Warner Brothers Discovery. Corporations react to the market. At this moment, the market seems primed to promote the narrative that conservatives have faced political persecution and must be allowed to speak. Lying to perpetuate a fraud is illegal. Lying writ large, however, is not illegal. In fact, Americans possess a First Amendment right to lie, something GOP operatives have reminded us … during appearances on CNN. If the corporate media landscape was worth our time or attention, culture war issues would be relegated to the fringes of American society and certainly not given extensive airtime at a time our nation faces real problems both at home and abroad. Instead, media outlets seeking ratings do not concern themselves with actually delivering useful information or, even, opinions based on a critical analysis of prevailing social issues or economic trends. What we are left with then becomes an ecosystem in which a relatively unknown Internet commentator using his appearance on a tremendously large American media outlet baselessly suggesting that a widely respected, world renown American journalist be killed by a foreign government for ties to a foreign terrorist organization.

To:  Those of the Islam Faith From:  A Blackman from America.  It would hurt me more, and even more it will hurt you,  if I failed to tell you why you must vote for Vice President,  Kamala Harris,  for President.  Because;  Not voting is self-Apartheid.  Our peoples has been lost because Apartheid is the White supremacists cause. Because;  If your people you lost,  had a vote in Gaza, they would be here now.  The United States is 💯 guilty, in Netanyahu false flag of the genocide of the Palestinians.  Because;  The United States would also be 💯 guilty in demonic trump false flag of the genocide of every race of peoples of color here, in America via project 2025, and abroad. Because;  This is the Inflection point written of the battle between the Good and the bad.  Only ⅓ follows the demonic comes from all of the peoples,  ⅔ are the good comes from all of the peoples. Because;  Whites must call out their white supremacists,  as being the foundation of that ⅓ evil. It doesn't matter if they are Catholic, the Crusader, or Jewish, the Knights Templor. Both of whom Dispora has brought about the Genocides throughout the world, in one form or another.  The same must happen  in every Country practicing similar atrocities world over. The USA established Israel, in 1948 as one of the last apartheid Countries.  At that same time in the USA that same apartheid was experienced by Black America, the Indigenous, Asian, Muslims..etc,   Ms. Kamala Harris,  was born in, and built by your same fight, unequivocally. When Kamala Harris says "We will not go back, that includes, every race/gender, here 1st in America,  and the World.We will not go back to the World of Apartheid, no more and, in no form.  The World is waiting. Because;  Not voting is self-Apartheid,  is a Jihad you must not make. The best that can be done Is the ⅔, the Good, to vote as one.  America is you too, and is built to pull us all through. Because;  Breaking that axis of evil between Demonic trump, Putin, and Netanyahu, starts here by flipping the all about me to all about We.

Disgusting man. He shouldn’t just be banned! There should be more severe consequences! Imagine if it was Muslim making ‘I hope you die’ comment to Christian or Jew? It would’ve been a complete different story. Girdusky should be labeled as dangerous threat to human life!

It should not be on black women to save this country. Everyone else seen to be single issue voters while black women have to put their personal interest aside to vote for the preservation of all lives in this country. This is not right
