    Precisely so. But the irony in this case is that as long as these two companies are artificially kept afloat exclusively so that they CAN function as propaganda outlets for the DNC, their ratings are going to continue trending downwards for some time to come. It's as if the political Left cannot connect Cause and Effect.

    The far left hates CNN and their ilk and liberals in general just as much as conservatives. Don't confuse slightly more liberal than average with the far left, nothing annoys us more than getting lumped in with DINOs.

    Well, no one here is in any way qualified to make a statement like that so I will just go back to the fact that when looking only at policy and ignoring delivery, I have few issues with what hes doing.

    I wouldnt’ know. I have never read the Daily Kos.

    Rachel Maddow is on for one hour five nights a week, while the propoganda spews forth from Trump TV all day long. Besides, there isn’t much doubt that Fox is little more than a public relations shop for various right wing and pro corporate causes. It is no, and never has been, a news organization. Roger Ailes made that pretty clear when he founded it,

    It’s AM right wing talk radio with pictures, and no call ins. Nothing more. All designed for people who are easily entertained by car chases and human interest stories (preferably in small town in the South or Mid West), and leggy news models (well, it does have one redeeming virtue!)’

    The “Trump Russia Collusion” is supported by over 400 pages of documented evidence.

    You work especially hard at sticking your fingers in your ears and averting your eyes. But then, facts were never the Trumpster’s friend. Not when your fuhrer is a liar and a con man, and a cheap one at that.

    Uh, Trump has been a narcissist every day of his life.

    This is a man who paid a front to buy a self portrait for the highest price and then paid him off. He just wanted to see his name at the top of the bid sheet.

    This is a man who used to call up gossip columnists and pretend he was some guy named John Barron, and tout himself.

    This is a man who added ten imaginary stories to the Trump Tower.

    This is a man who bragged that he had the tallest building in lower Manhattan after 9/11.

    He did all of these things long before he became a candidate, much less a President.

    You have no doubt seen the video of his cabinet meetings where he goes around the table getting everyone of his vessels to sing his praises for the TV cameras. The media didn’t make him do that either.

    I have no idea where you get the notion that his current press coverage made him that way.

    Yeah and if you believe someone a narcissist and denounce them for it and then spend every waking hour paying exclusive attention to them and their every move then you are sort of being hypocritical. This person is so absolutely full of themselves and believes themselves so absolutely important that I'm going to dedicate my entire news network to them and their every move.

    What lol? How much sense does that actually make? Let's reinforce the perceived negative self centered behavior by giving him all of our attention. If CNN had any common sense they'd return to their yesteryear's of respectable journalism and make the narcissistic the universe revolves around me President an afterthought instead of their focal point.

    It'd probably help those tanking ratings of theirs too, even the damn New York Times told CNN that they're getting out of control with this nonsense and THAT'S saying something...

    Trump, being Trump that he is, is absolutely taking credit for tanking CNN's ratings by exposing them and all of his relentless Fake News spewing. Because that's what Trump does, just talked about this. Reality is that no, CNN is killing CNN because they are so cynically obsessed with exposing Trump as a terrible President that they dedicate their entire network to doing so. And more and more American citizens are getting sick of hearing about it all day, even many of their own once loyal viewers.

    I actually respect CNN and MSNBC honestly. These folks are so dedicated in their hatred that they are literally willing to lose money to march forward with this crusade. That's an absolutely terrible decision as a business but a respectable one in my book. I always tell folks if you believe in something as strongly as you claim then put your money where your mouth is. Well, they are...and I respect them for that.

    It won't matter because their funding doesn't come from viewers. George Soros, the DNC, and other liberal corrupt deep pockets fund them.

    CNN and MSNBC would like to thank all of you cons for continuing to watch them daily. Without your support they would have folded years ago.

    No quickly, go get your fix in so you know who or what to be upset at so you can post it here.

    Trump said long ago that they will go out of business when he leaves the White House in 2024.

    mmm I dunno... I think the people are entertained... they may be reluctant to let him go. You know they say there's no such thing as bad publicity
