Regardless of politics, how did anyone think this would work? We’re all bombarded with news 24/7. I don’t really know what you got for $8 per month. I think there was a Rex Chapman show. But damn. Imo. People stream to get away from the real world.

Not really the point. I will say that they’ve become a lot less biased in reporting the news. Which is really all I want. BBC is still good. I used to go to Reuters but now they’re behind a paywall after you read so many articles.

Pretty pathetic but they are restructuring everything there at AT&T/TimeWarner or so it seems. You'll probably see all the CNN content on HBO Max, which I actually like.

Yeah…HBO Max is pretty good. It’s one that I don’t cancel. They always seem to have something good coming up. I kind of always compare the prices to going to see a movie. If I can get several hours of decent content, then I’m OK paying for it. For now anyway. As to CNN, I think the best thing they did was the Decades docs. The 60’s, the 70’s, etc.

Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown is pretty good too, a show that seems completely unrelated to the kind of content CNN is known for.

You musta been watching it when you weren't feeling up to snuff, SfS. They're just as biased and slanted as they've always been, even worse since Trump is still a free man.

Haven't looked at CNN in quite a while. When these MSM news gangs started talking more about themselves and other news sites than about actual news, I started reading Al Jazeera and other sites around the world. When the story is how this particular event can be spun to favor one side of the political spectrum, it's not news.

& that's the fun part once you set your mind to it. One talks while the others nod. Then the next one talks and the others nod. After each has had their say, the host says something kinda under their breath to insult Trump, whether he's the form of the discussion or, not. Then everybody nods and they pull to a commercial.

You scarred me, son, seriously. I felt genuinely bad for you over COVID and stated such in front of the entire company, shed tears over it here at the house. Then you did me dirt for some damn reason I still can't reconcile in my mind. Done is done. I have to get over it as you say and I am working thru it, it just hurts.

(The pics) are my response to the situation. I make no bones about it; I want Russia to win, Putin to win, Biden to thwarted in his fighting this war without having to go out to Dover again, the little shit.

So, when I receive bad war news via Effy & RG I respond in anger. It's natural, it's human. Effy is a real pain in my ass, that SOB, RG as well, he ain't no picnic. I enjoy battling them though. Can you imagine for instance if I too wanted Ukr to win, Putin to lose? The thought is abhorrently vulgar. What's so swell is I genuinely don't want that. I'm rabid about. I (see) Biden for who he is and I hate him for it.

Makes for a nice rivalry here, but you guys don't look at it like that. You're not alone, nobody else does on the other sites I've been on and kicked off from over like issues. And sooner or later I'll be jettisoned off from here. Sadly, I'm wise enough to fully understand you'll be happier without me. I don't understand it, but it's the truth. That's just the way it is.

They'll/regular CNN find a spot for him, they're not just going to eat that contract.

The tricky part is who are they going to jettison to make that room? They can't pair him like they've been doing for the past year. He's has to stand alone. They can't run off a woman, white, or, black. So, it'll have to be another white man who gets axed. Not John King, he's juiced in. Not Tapper, no way. Perhaps Sciutto, he's the weak link.

That would be a huge loss for them - considering he is one the biggest liars on a network that peddles 95% fake news.

Anyway, Wallace's job will be to slam Fox and Trump on a loop until his deal runs out. Since he is white, they will likely give him a undesirable time slot. I'm sure they are searching high and low for the next Lemon or Joy Reid.
