So CNN is hiring Trump staffer Alyssa Farah, whose father founded WorldNetDaily, the conspiracy site behind Obama birtherism.

Between this and their producer facing Federal charges in Vermont, you begin to wonder.

who is funding the new OAN that supports the insurrection.

We should probably not be surprised the GOP owned AT&T WarnerMedia would operate their own news network (CNN) any way they damn feel like it on a given news cycle.

I think they are more centrist than other networks. I don’t need to hear my own viewpoints repeated back to me constantly; I’m willing to sort through the noise and hear some things that I disagree with.

Whenever you hear something you don’t agree with? So you can gather information, even misinformation, from a wide variety of sources and form your own opinion and draw a conclusion? That’s very weird these days lol j/k.

Ricky Frothy Santorum has his own show?

I cannot stomach CNN Anymore. They are unwatchable - inflation, inflation, oh by the way, did we mention inflation?

We are in very deep trouble as a country. They are salivating for the return of that fat fuck rat bastard.
