I have never seen a news network display activism as journalism until I turned CNN (London) on. After watching a segment with Becky Anderson with protesters in London trying to push her activist views to her viewers made me turn it off. Then, I find out the entire thing was staged which made me decide never to watch CNN again. If you have to set up props, bus in people and give them signs then display them as "protesters" for a news segment, you're just pathetic.

Really?
April 25, 2017

Flipping through channels this morning. Allison and Chris had a few guests and they are still weighing in on a "Trump admin Russia probe"? Really? Instead of "really really fake news"... they should be named, "really really no news"...

Used to watch CNN all the time. I feel the news media should not be biased in their reporting during elections. Will never watch CNN stations and view them now to be untrustworthy and a waste of my time.

I used to watch CNN all the time, and did so for decades, up until a few months ago. I cannot believe all the bias and collusion with Clinton & her team, as well as with our government. It's utterly disgraceful! And I used to be a Democrat. After what I've seen and read about CNN as well as most of the other media, I'll never watch them again.

Folks, open your eyes and do your own research. That's what I did. I have seen CNN edit things out of tapes and called them out on it. I've read the Wikileaks emails where the Clinton campaign is fully colluding with most of the media. There a huge stories in those emails, but most people wouldn't know about it because the mainstream media won't report on them.

LETS GET REAL
October 9, 2016

I think its so hilarious how this CNN station is able to operate as a new network. They obviously lean to the far left and are completely unfair to anyone who does not agree with them. Their spin room interviews with an out numbered 7 to 2 panel in favor of the left agenda is a joke especially when they (the left) are continually interrupting and not allowing those with other points of view to speak. Perhaps they have no real interest for the truth but only to allow a lying hypocrite who has no real interest or concern for America or American values to run the country. Its a shame that this is what some refer to as news. I believe this particular network has ties and are bought out by the Clinton campaign and her endorsers is just one of the many reasons they spend all their time bashing Trump and his campaign. Trump MAGA

Completely biased
November 4, 2016

You do not deliver the news. YOU deliver your opinion of the news. I have only watched CNN forever but no more since the general election. Your morning show hosts are so combative and unprofessional and completely biased. I feel sorry for uneducated people who depend on you for the "news". By the way, I have always voted Democratic in every presidential election until now.

Fake news

I'm disgusted with how all they worry about is slamming President Trump. They are nothing but selfless ignorant people that care nothing about how this country is doing so much better. They need to be removed!

I wish zero stars was a voting option. I stopped watching CNN for up to date news coverage. How many discussions are they going to devote to the presidential election where the panelists are simply repeating themselves and giving predictions? I am tired of predictions; we need news! The least they could do is try to educate the viewers about the influence that the next president and new congress will have on the Supreme Court. Why aren't they talking about the races in congress? That's where this election really matters.
News should be informative, not repetitive.

More profit less news
October 3, 2022

We have noticed more recently there is less news and more coverage of advertisements. It appears it is going in the direction of what happened to Boeing... more profits! We have decided to move on after being a CNN follower for many, many years.

I've watched CNN for years and always believed that it was a standup news outlet. Where I could get facts regardless of the news topic. I appreciated the fact that politicians couldn't come on air, lie and spread conspiracies. Now, and as of the last several months. CNN is now so closely aligned to another propaganda news station. I cannot tell the difference between the two news outlets. Our democracy is on the line and if our press does not do its job. We stand to lose our democracy! I can no longer watch this CNN until it returns to the forefront with sound principles!

Total Disgrace to our Country. You know exactly what you are doing and you work for the Elite Establishment. It is so obvious. I use to watch until I started to catch on to how biased your coverage was. Just so you are aware CNN. America is awake and see through all your BS. You have a choice, jump on the Nationalist train or fall off the bridge. Because we don't want a New World Order. Can't you tell from Brexit and others. The times have changed and you are not part of the Real America you are part of a Dream of what some Capitalists want America to be. I pray for the day when you are off the air.

Unbelievable
January 9, 2020

Can't count how many times disgraced lawyer Michael Avenatti was on CNN trying to disgraced president Trump. Where is he now? Can't count how people on CNN said we are going to war this week where are they now? CNN will let anybody talk about anything with no consequences. I won't call it fake news but it's very very irresponsible.

Let the meme war begin. This corrupt excuse for news has made a great amount of impact for our crumbling world. Trump this Trump that. What? Trump got more ice cream? Wow! Oh, let's dox a 15 year old boy who is trying to express himself. Even one star is too high of a rating. Let the meme war begin.

There was a time when the news media reported things that would benefit our country. That time is long past. Now it seems that CNN wants to report things that give them clicks. Clicks are earned when someone clicks on the internet to a particular news story. CNN knows that reporting negative news on our president or about our country earns them clicks. They care little about our country being successful. Instead they favored Trump bashing because they think that will get them more clicks from there viewers. Since CNN is so much in the tank for one particular political party I have renamed them the Clinton News Network over and out.

Lies Lies and more Lies. I was stuck at the airport and CNN was on the tv in front of me so I watched it for about 30 minutes and the news anchor made several ridiculous claims that just didn't sound true so I did a little research and found that they were indeed lying! Several other news outlets and sources were reporting the exact opposite. Ever since then I check out their breaking stories and literally with a little bit of research most of the content can be debunked. Don Lemon, Jake Tapper and Chris Cuomo are the worst journalists I've ever seen. I am no longer a democratic because of those clowns I was embarrassed to have the same political views as them!

Hey Guys... when are you going to report about those innocent Christians who are sent to jail or killed by the sharia irrational law because they were accused of blasphemy? Ess. Shahzad Masih, 16, was accused of insulting the prophet Muhammad during an argument with a member of an Islamist extremist party.

CNN used to be a credible news outlet before it exposed its obvious democratic agenda and anti trump coverage. Although the stories they talk about are about current events, they are blown out of proportion and give news headlines and articles that give a false impression of the health and strength of the nation and quality of our leadership. I just hope fellow Americans can see through to misdirection of CNN and be encouraged by the steps the nation is taking. I cannot understand why CNN wishes to not make America great agian like our president does.

Why does CNN sensationalize and lie instead of focus on the things average Americans care about? No solutions offered, no intelligent discussion, just leftist propaganda. I am a teacher, and I employ CNN in illustrating deceitfulness, partisanship, hasty generalizations, taking statements out of context, and only presenting one side of an issue with extreme bias.

Threatening a citizen with revealing their dox is plain and simple extortion. Do these people have no scruples or ethics. The liberal media is grating on the American people! And is Jim Acosta as stupid as his biased diatribes or just too damn dumb to be informed. Time for this clown to fade into obscurity.
