I've been watching CNN for the past hour

[mnmoderatedem]

No mention of a real estate guy with no intelligence experience randomly firing highly valued intelligence officials because they won't tow the trump line, thus making our nation more vulnerable by the hour to catastrophic terrorist attacks.

They did cover the Taylor Swift wedding though, so there's that.

1. They have become "Entertainment Tonight" or Access Hollywood...

... hard hitting deep analysis of soft news.

[SergeStorms]

6. With the exception of MSN....

All of the MSM has become infotainment for the masses.
We have the most ill-informed electorate outside of Russia.

[Vinca]

2. When I first turned it on there was a cutesy interview with a fake George Washington.

CNN might as well call it a day and flush.

8. I saw that too

that's when I switched over to the Cartoon Network. More informative and sophisticated.

3. You need a load of Democrats back in power for them to go back

into any kind of investigating/bashing mode. I haven't watched that CS "network" since Trumps phony ass town hall put on by CNN two years ago.

4. The US media today is a wholly owned subsidiary of corporate and political power.

But they don't mind, given the nice fat paychecks and not having to really do much of anything to get them. Well, other than hit jobs on Dems occasionally. That takes a bit of effort. Lazy yappers and scribblers trying to stand on the shoulders of 20th century giants. They are so damn pathetic.

5. Why?

[Vogon_Glory]

7. Oh, they'll take notice in due course

If Mr. Pulte’s firings leave big enough holes in US intelligence that we go through another 9/11, CNN will deign to take notice. They might even find the courage to say he was responsible (Then again, they might not).

After which. They’ll nod their heads unctuously as the Trump/Republicans blame Joe Biden and the Democrats for a catastrophic intelligence failure.

9. The average person doesn't seem to care

Good example are all the storms popping up “out of nowhere” and nobody connects that to Trump and Elon.

12. The "average" person doesn't even know what America 250 celebrates

10. When Iran's nukes hit Washington DC ... CNN might mention it then

11. CNN is billionaire slop.
