    It is best to start watching at the 3:20 mark.

    It is important to note that the guest sat quietly never interrupting opposing views. He was respectful the whole way through and asked that he be given a chance to explain his opinion. It was a chance he was NEVER afforded. Then Don Lemon went on to define "fake news", which was not an accurate definition.

    Fake news isn't just reporting a story that a network knows is a lie. It's reporting one that is so weak on sources and comes off as propaganda or heavily biased that it lack credibility.

    For instance:

    [​IMG]

    There is no "White Supremacist" element, yet CNN reported it.

    If failing news outlets like CNN refuse to allow for an open discussion and for all sides to be heard, then they deserve all the criticism they receive.

    I watched that video last night on Twitter.

    Don Lemonhead is, and has always been such a flake.

    CNN must really be hurting if Lemonhead is the best they can do.

    That was excellent. The genie is out of the bottle, and there is no way Don Lemon will be able to put it back, but I do enjoy watching him try. Hilarious.

    CNN is a propagandist network. Disinformation is a more appropriate description of what CNN routinely broadcast.

    Once CNN went full out Hillary can they go back now with no repercussions? Or do they get a pass because their hearts were in the right place at the time?

    Here is CNN cutting off the Mike of a Congressman when he tries to mention Wikileaks. They are Fake News, they push an agenda, not the facts.

    CNN Cuts off their own reporter for being critical of Hillary Clinton. They are famous for doing this from their "technical booth".

    Did they fire her?

    I've seen that one before, but it's a good one. I love how insincere the guy is when the feed is cut. "Oh no, we just lost him, that sucks." ha ha ha. CNN needs to hire Meryl Streep to start doing the "news" because this guy and Don Lemon are not convincing at all.

    the CNN guy meant he put the story out to unintentionally deceive everyone.

    you can't threaten a guys career who has been making millions of dollars by calling his work fake, on his own fake news program.

    Facts are not fake except in TrumpCo's "Alternative Fact Land."

    Remember! If you are reading Wikileaks and NOT going through the media... YOU ARE BREAKING THE LAW!

    Don Lemon is great.

    Of course, a lot of racist homophobes like taking potshots at him.

    Damn right... check this out. Fake News by CNN changing the entire narrative through selective editing.

    More from the left calling people racist and homophobic when it does not apply and another reason why they will keep losing elections.

    That was beyond biased. It was the inability to intellectually counter an opinion different from ones own. Shouting down conflicting ideas, at word one, says "I'm stupid and unable to verbalize my thoughts because I don't understand my own thoughts and positions beyond the superficial" like nothing else.

    Lemmon is not a deep thinker.

    Cheers

    Paris Dennard is terminally clueless.

    The only reason he is even given a spot on the CNN forum is because the fact that he is Black and Gay makes him an unlikely Trump supporter.

    He is a just another delusional Trump apologist who is lucky that Lemon didn't cut him off sooner.

    Incredible restraint was shown by Lemon to even let that Trumpist troll ramble as long as he did.

    So pulling out the classic liberal card of name calling and derailing when you can't really address what the thread is about.

    Don Lemmon is basically a spoiled teenager with a talk interview show on a network. ButTrump is a 12 year old and he occupies the most powerful and import position in the world.

    What? Lemmon didn't even let the man finish a single sentence yet alone form a thought to rebut.

    "Restraint?" Lemmon was as restrained as rioters shutting down free speech with fire bombs.

    It may be true CNN gave Trump millions of dollars in negative publicity but they weren't exactly cheering him on as I remember it now.

    I guess they should state they are fair and balanced. Then they wouldn't have any bias.
