    CNN has zero credibility.

    The people who are the most violent and deadly in this country are not Nazis, they're among the groups you defend. But you keep running scared about Nazis even though you're probably never encounter one in your life.

    I watch Fox, and they play clips of the idiocy being shown on MSNBC and especially CNN.

    You can belief that if you wish, but you are wrong.

    No one is scared of the Trumpers. And I grew up part of my life with KKK, neo-nazis, and general fascist trash.

    And you managed to live all these years even growing up among folks the left says is violent. Heck, you’re not even afraid of them. So that leaves us with 4 of the 50 most dangerous cities in the world to be concerned with, Baltimore, Detroit, New Orleans and St Louis. Those are not conservative strongholds.

    When you say 'far left' do you mean the Communists? If so there were many people, millions in fact, who were terrified. Are you familiar with their history?

    Really?

    I thought they were posting pics from that RECENT Issue of SI with Caitlyn Jenner?:roflol:

    Go figure.

    Anyway, back on topic, Acosta is legit.

    That said, I would expect Anti-CNN Shade from a RW Echo Chamber (like PF).

    LOL! The only problem with that idea is that it's dimwitted leftists who are making that call and everyone not in their parade is a 'right wing Nazi'.

    Wow! You obsession with that cross dressing man is strong, you mention him in nearly everyone of your responses to me. I apologize if that thread, while accurate, was a little outdated for your liking, but I’m sure you have a favorite search engine that will provide you with all the latest pictures of him that you desire.

    Thank God for that! The Clinton Fun-Dation owns all of the other networks and if they had Fox too you'd have 24/7 president bashing. How boring would that be?

    CNN shapes the thoughts of who exactly? Nobody watches them. Their ratings are garbage.

    after Trump became President and dirtied the Trump brand, many things 'Trump' have gone away

    It’s not TiVo, it’s the cable companies. Just about everything you watch in a modern cable tv company is streamed, they have the entire data of your viewing habits to the point when they can tell when you paused a show along with every show you’ve watched. You’re buying and they know what they’re selling.

    problem is, tivo is always on and always listening, too sometimes up to six channels at a time, that is why you can scroll back 30 minutes on any of those channels

    now Tivo knows which one your really watching... also they know which ones you give thumbs up too, and record

    youtube tv also knows as well as other streaming cable replacements like Sling and Hulu

    now your right, the older crowd that only uses their TV may show well on those cable tv stats

    but the newer generation has cut the cord... and does not show on those stats

    it's kinda like land line polls... those are out of date as most use cell phones nowadays

    I believe that’s a stored 30 minute buffer. Wanna hear something nuts? I get it that ads are directed to me by my computer activity and cookies, but one night my wife and I were talking about a new bridle for her horse. The next day my Android was giving me bridle ads.

    Google is listening to us through our phones. I hope they can discern that if they hear a conversation through my phone about giving Muslim terrorists cold hard cash they realize I’m watching a documentary about Obama.

    Not exactly. News outlets being controlled by political parties are like nuclear weapons. I DO NOT AGREE WITH IT! But if one guy has it then the other guy has no choice but to get one too.

    people that want to watch non-biased news watch CNN

    if you want far right you watch FOX

    if you want far left you watch MSNBC
