    Then why are you objecting to the characterization of CNN as biased?

    I'm not objecting to the characterization of CNN as biased; in fact my first post in here was to simply ask a question about other MSM. I just clarified it the past few posts by saying all media is biased.

    That is fine, but the HUGE majority of it is left wing biased and has been for decades. This includes: CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, NY Times, LA Times, Washington Post, PBS, etc.. etc... etc...

    ... and these outlets pushed their propaganda for decades while claiming they were straight down the middle.

    Sure it does. You made some "definition" of "fake news" and I shot your definition a big bird of truth. You, because this truth doesn't fit your world view, consider it "fake."

    Again, perhaps you were thinking of someone else. I never made any claims about any french/wikileaks/russian stories. I merely said that just because a story is factual does not make it truthful. If it is untruthful, then it is fake news.

    eg: "Apples are sweet and delicious and nutritious. Oranges promote tooth decay". This statement contains only facts. But it is not truthful, because it leads the reader to believe apples are good and oranges are bad.

    Lots of people repeat propaganda because they're too stupid to see they're being manipulated. I mean, let's face it, they voted for Trump.

    If by spreading left wing Socialist/Globalist propaganda you mean, "defending the 1st Amendment", then alright.

    You may not even realize you have been brainwashed. I find it curious.

    Next.

    Biased reporting and practicing yellow journalism does not equate to defending the First Amendment. It could perhaps be characterized as exercising First Amendment rights, but again, exercising First Amendment rights does not equate to defending the First Amendment. I don't think you understand the basics.

    How is broadcasting all of his rallies live, and in full, negative publicity?

    You're not very bright. Or you're just a partisan hack. Either way, you're wrong. Getting facts wrong is sloppy, not fake.

    If this is the standard, Trump's the most fake of all. Unless you can explain what happened "last night in Sweden".

    Of course, you're unable to show any positive Hillary coverage.

    But they did employ Trump flacks Jeffrey Lord and Corey Lewandowski, among others. Yeah, what a hit job. [​IMG]

    It's the other 90% of their broadcast day roasting Trump on a spit I was referring to.
