Aside from their obvious bias they seem to focus mostly on the negative and leave so much important news unreported. When 5 or 6 political rants show up in my feed ahead of the .CA fires at their peak something is wrong. They should hire some real reporters and find some management interested I real news that's actually of interest.

Nothing you guys say makes sense or shows any sort of logical judgement. Everything said is manipulated to favor speakers' opinion. There are no facts to explain their point of views and everything they use to support their statements are opinionated as well; not factual, just biased. They talk like boys in a locker room, mocking the president and laughing when no one watches the news for your opinion. They watch it to hear discussion on the facts. You don't deserve the spotlight, please shut down your news casts that turns into reports of self-thought.

Unreliable

Unreliable news, forcing agenda. Putting almost identical news with minimum changes like some other new channels.It's almost they all controlled by same people. You can tell it's literally propaganda machine.

Ratings above all
June 15, 2017

CNN cannot be called news, they are (at best) a talk show. Pop, flash "breaking news" and all other real news is forgotten. I believe they spend more money on makeup than true investigative journalism. How can you be objective, if you spend 90% of your time gossiping and jumping to conclusions. Every panel is portrayed as "experts" and "specialists". They are reporters and paid employees. This does not produce constructive discussion, it is derived to drive ratings. True journalism is to relay the events and "facts" of the day. Interpretation is for the viewer to determine. Media outlets of this nature play a leading role in the reality tv world we are living in. CNN is not fake news, it's just not "news" at all.

I use to watch CNN years ago, thinking I was getting genuine reporting. But, since Donald Trump was elected president in 2016, I have not been able to find a single report without personal feelings swaying the article or news anchor into a whirlwind of anti trump hate. Instead of reporting from a clean slate every time, it's just been a "bash the trump administration" teenage girl tantrum. I cannot give negative stars, so I guess they can just have 1 star, and know my disgust.

When it came to news I would turn to CNN and watch for hours, Wolf was my favorite... Since the election you guys have become so hateful and your spirit is going down the path of plan evil. You can dislike Trump but to tell out right lies to fix your agenda is sad. Don't you feel silly talking about the same thing over and over again, if Trump got a dime for every time you guys mention his name $$$$$$. Please get back to real news with facts, and stop dividing the country.

CNN is not an honest news network! Avoid them at all cost if possible. They are corrupt and bought-out. They determine what's news and will only share what THEY think is news. You won't hear about plenty of news stories because it might go against their agenda. I would recommend going with Fox News, Drudge, or other similar networks.

TERRIBLE news people
March 18, 2020

I was shocked to listen to your news people... especially about Pres. Trump... they just lied and lied. China wants Biden so they can push him around. Thank heaven we have a strong President who will protect us. You need to clean house and get rid of your left leaning "correspondents". CNN is a mess.

Full of propaganda and no real journalism. It's sad to see this as the mainstream media source. Hopefully, they will go bankrupt soon and will be replaced by a real news organization that isn't so biased.

Can not stand to watch anymore. Don lemmon is one of the worst. He purposely turns words and stories around into something it's not. Consistently pushing tolerance, yet they seem to be the most intolerant people out there. Repeating false narratives and glorifying violence against police. Seems to me they should consider the actual facts before reporting. They should be off the air for their involvement with Clintons campaign.

All Lies
October 14, 2022

CNN is the worst news agency to follow. Always have some political topic which they swing in favour of a political power or sponsor that backs them. It's a shame people are so narrow minded and can't see in-between the lines. I can't wait to see the FBI and other departments burn in the future. What happened to honest reporting? Clearly it's just money driven now. Society is already at an all time low then CNN takes it to a new low. Watch, they will blame someone else for what they have cause... this is civil war in America!

The National Enquirer is more trustworthy in delivering accurate, unbiased news. You know, that little tabloid at every grocery store in America? Yes, the one with aliens found in schools posing as teachers. The one who has off the chart "mostly entertainment" style stories of fantasy and fiction. As outrageous as the stories may be it's well known that tabloids make money this way and that's all well and good... but CNN? Omg guys, get a life!

They are so unbelievably biased, especially during this whole election. They focus over 90% of their time bashing Trump over meaningless things, all the while, Hillary has committed actual crimes, and it's glossed over by them. Worse than that actually, they flat out defend her and cover her stories up intentionally. They're total crap. I can't believe I now trust Breitbart and Fox over them.

Has anyone in the corporate office or CEO ever tried a new approach to the way this fake news is broadcasted let's be honest instead if bashing our government and coming up with supportive solutions instead of contributing to this nation's problems. Attacking the president and blaming this pandemic on him along
With everything else isn't going to fix your ratings being honest and start stating facts rather than opinions would go along way. CNN is without question a disgusting display of the 1st amendment. Your network is garbage as well as the news you're broadcasting!

Can't they afford to hire educated journalist? What ever happened to who, what, where, when and why? Now, it's just personal journalistic opinion, Sad to see that journalism at CNN is dead... reporting has gone the way of the dinosaurs there.

I have decided to delete my CNN app. CNN is clearly obsessed with Trump and give him too much free coverage. Often you can find 4 or 5 stories in a row about Trump and his ignorant rants. It made me depressed to read the "news" on this site as 30% or more of its content is devoted to Trump and his negative views. I would like to encourage everybody to stop reading CNN. There are much more news Out there that are produced by real journalists.

I remember around 911 the way they covered stories. Those days are long gone. There is too much corporate money in CNN for it to be authentic it's just an agenda driven propaganda machine now. That is ALL it is now.

I was a regular consumer of CNN on the app and streaming. I will not watch or read again until a public apology for agreeing to give an unhinged lunatic a megaphone from which to continue to spread his hideous lies. Collins did her best but the set up with all Republicans and Independents was untenable and gave a false impression to the viewing public that Trumps comments were true or funny. Someone should lose their job over this (Chris!). Shame on you CNN for the damage you have done to our democracy. Joe better get his airtime with all dems and independents?

What's wrong with CNN?
September 16, 2017

I can't ever leave a comment on cnn page, maybe they blocked me. Well I will leave one here. I don't understand why they keep making a big deal about charlottesville protest but don't seem to make it as big of a deal when protestors break windows and burn buildings down. To me that's terrorism. Using violence to force people to view things your way. I feel like are country is being groomed to see things a certain way, not good for our democracy. I don't care much for cnn. They don't make much sense and I don't think you can really rely on them with the facts. They also seem to be very one sided.

Every now and then I gave this channel and their website a chance. A chance to prove me wrong. But no. It's always the same BS unfounded speculative bias horse dung. They are such a disgraceful organization. I truly believe CNN hates America, wants it to be destroyed, and would be just fine if all of us died homeless and starving.
