Sorry... are you under the absolute bizarre impression that because I linked to two articles that quote what Republicans say, I am saying those two sources are Republican?
As for CNN... who just hosted a pointless Republican debate?
I just think it's funny to be complaining about the republicans doing something and post three sources of their opposition doing the it, instead of finding three republican "pro killing boomers and making them leave their homes" articles which I'm sure you could have.
So you're doubling down on CNN being the republican's news outlet? Oh right I forgot about the party switch, you know, when all the CNN guys became republicans and all the Fox guys became Democrats. Silly me.
I suppose I could have found articles about things I didn't know people said, but I decided to go with the ones I did know about.
And CNN is whatever its WB masters think will most benefit them... but if you think it's left-wing to allow two Republicans to spend a huge amount of prime time on your news network spewing their false talking points unchallenged except by each other, I don't know what to tell you.
Right, and then say other people said it, it's just an odd choice.
"Are democrats left wing" is another convo, but CNN is demonstrably democrats. That's like denying Fox is "the republican one."
The entire network is a challenge to the republicans, they're literally the news outlet of "the other side" as fox is to the republicans. Idk what to tell you dude.
Again- why did they devote a large block of prime time to allow Republicans to spew talking points unchallenged if that is true?
My mistake, it has been brought to my attention that they have come under new ownership as of late and that my info is no longer true, that's my bad.
It seems you're operating on old news. CNN has changed hands and its stakeholders expressly want CNN to be FOX.
They're happy leaving the libs MSNBC.
Oh shit, I may be actually. When did this happen?
Like three times since 2022, but most recently I think August 2023.
Oh shit thanks for the heads up!
