So in other words you have nothing to back up your point other than your feelings. CNN is a very centrist news organization by any reasonable measure. The thing is, conservatives in the US are not reasonable. Every sane person knows this.

You have repeatedly said you aren’t from the US (as if that matters, other than likely making you ignorant of its politics). Where are you from?
What is unreasonable is you calling conservatives in the USA unreasonable. Who made you the arbiter of truth?

And this is the big issue with politics in general everywhere in the world, its never a honest and factual debate on a specific issue/s, its always how evil and bad the other side are, while your side is perfect.

I think the bigger threat in the West right now are leftist, I think they are more unreasonable. We've seen all the SJW stuff, all the PC stuff, all the shutting down of free speech, censoring and calls for boycotting people/businesses with opposing views, all the violence and rioting, the microaggressions, all of this crazy stuff.

Of course what this has done is make people on the opposite side more extreme as well. But its a FACT that liberal elites control the media in the USA and schools and colleges are left wing controlled and they are the ones brainwashing kids into being SJW snowflakes and single issue slave voters for the democratic party!
All of this has caused conservatives to become more extreme and they will keep becoming more extreme as a reaction to leftist already being extreme.

CNN is not hardcore left leaning? I mean are we living on the same planet?

Is MSNBC not left wing? Is Fox News not right wing? CNN is a hardcore left leaning news organization with literally thousands of fake news. Read The Intercept and Glenn Greenwald, he writes often about the liars at CNN.
*sigh*

If we did a poll on all conservatives in the USA, I'd bet 99% will say CNN is left wing. I'd think that would answer it, if you made a poll on liberals in the USA, I'd say 80% will say its "centrist". Its 100% hardcore left wing, there is no point debating this, you are not 'tricking' conservatives here into watching it in the hopes they become leftist.
LOL!

We wouldn't dream of trying to "trick" them. We feel too sorry for them for being duped by Trump. It's the most pathetic thing I've ever seen.

You really don't understand how con artistry/ bullshit artistry works. It's not a rational thing. It doesn't work at a conscious level. A con artist captures the imaginations of his marks, manipulates them at an emotional level. He gets people to take him into their confidence. They find their prey as if by instinct. Trump is obviously very, very good at it. He's just in over his head as President.

And thanks a lot for making me feel dirty. It's appalling to me to think that I have given you or anyone the impression that I don't. Geez!

You're definitely from the US, you have the oppressed conservative bit down to every talking point.
Also you're choice of sites you consume prove it.
The intercept is a conservative website? Muhahahah! Your a top notch comedian.

No, Glenn Greenwald was the darling of the left until Bush was in office, once Obama got in and he criticized Obama for the same reasons he criticized Bush he got blacklisted for the mainstream controlled media owned by George Soros, Warren Buffett, Mike Bloomberg, Jeff Bezos, Warrens, etc... So now no matter how left leaning you are, if you don't follow the MSM script you are labeled as right wing.

You obviously can't be liberal or progressive if George Soros and Bloomberg owned MSM dodn't deem you so!

@Guru where do you live?

He claims Europe. Which unless its one of the central European countries rapidly shifting to their version of the right must be an absolute hell for him.

Of course even in those countries they have services that would be decried as the harbinger of the end of western civilization by the right in the US.

99% of conservatives also insist that trump is an amazing president, light years better than obama.

Both those arguments are objectively bullshit, and easily refuted.

If you're using what 99% of conservatives consider gospel as your yardstick, that's more an indictment of your analytical thinking skills than CNN's journalistic integrity.

It's also the reason this country is irrevocably fucked.

So you won't answer the question about where you are from? Take a little country pride and yell it out mister.

Step 1: state that your political opponent can't make a claim about their political opponents' veracity and reasonableness. Because, like, TruthIsn'tTruth™.

Step 2: flat-out lie by saying that your political opponent is claiming that their side is perfect.

Step 3: state that your political opponents' lie, and are not reasonable. This has to be true, because those carefully constructed conjuring phrases that your handlers' have trained you to repeat exist. Or something equally as illogical.

Step 4: play massive victim to imagined, abstract attacks; imply the need of a SafeSpace that only a Strongman like Trump can provide, because everyone is out to 'getcha. I mean, you can't even state morally reprehensible views in public, because, like, Soros and Bezos are personally censoring your morally reprehensible views by, uh, controlling the news feed beamed into your back fillings.

Step 5: look like typical US conservative victim, blaming the rest of the world on their own personal and moral failures.

Keep on keepin' on, collaborator.

WOW! I don't even think I've even replied directly to you and you are already insulting me! Very reasonable of you, this just proves my point!
Also your point is tired, ugly and stupid. I wanna pat your head and give you an indulgent look except I'd never indulge you, you're a waste.

I'm just saying that con artists aren't stupid. They're a different & manipulative kind of smart. They can also be delusional themselves, and I suspect Trump is just that. Or he's just acting as Putin's bitch, spreading as much FUD as he can.

your logic. it doesn't exist. you are defending your thesis on your version of bias by appealing to likewise-biased sources.

Hmm, I give Trump no credit. Which means I have even less faith in those who would support him. "Smart" of any kind among them/leading them leaves a lot to be desired.

I do get what you're saying I just don't think it applies in the case of Donald Trump. He didn't show up as a charismatic, silver tongued, temptation. He showed up as hate, pettiness and stupidity and his people wept tears of joy and ugliness. Hate won them over not any any sort of intelligence. That's the most discouraging thing of all. It would be one thing if he truly were charismatic. But he offers nothing to them but the comfort of validating their hate and stupidity. Even they know it's not worthwhile but they're devoted.
