This is not politics, but just news in general. It's not good. I know liberal like pretending it's unbiased after years of complaining about corporate interests. But for real: corporate interests. Cable news is ONLY beholden to its donors and not interested in ratings in the slightest.
>CNN Goes on Rampage Against Susan Rice Bombshell, Instructs Viewers to Ignore Story
>Since news broke Monday that the Obama Administration's National Security Adviser, Susan Rice, directed the "unmasking" of NSA intercepts of Trump associates, CNN has raced to shoot down the blockbuster report.
>CNN Tonight's Don Lemon went so far as to announce he would ignore the news at all costs.
>While interviewing a Democratic congressman, CNN's Chris Cuomo claimed it was "demonstrably untrue" Rice sought surveillance of the Trump team, even as that's exactly what yesterday's reports prove.
Again, this is not about the specific story, just a thread to talk about what the fuck. A thread to talk about the ABSOLUTE state of television news.
my cable and internet are bundled. if i were to drop my cable, my bill would increase $40 a month. that also why i have corded phone
Blake Fisher
It's garbage, the internet is killing them because it's just an inherently better/more efficient/whatever form of information distribution
some asshole with a webcam and mic can now do what these networks do with million dollar studios
It's hardly even information distribution anymore, it's just panels of pundits and "analysts" providing speculation and commentary, something literally anyone who can speak in complete sentences is just as qualified to do
Angel Torres
No because it promotes actual discussion and Sup Forums and Sup Forums don't like that
Ian Hall
CNN knows this .. thats why they keep getting away with it
Eli Lewis
Who the fuck cares about news? I think you need to get laid, virgin
>tfw cut my cable because my provider refuse to remove CNN from the bundle.
managed to save $100/month and don't miss cable a bit
Adam Hernandez
>Liberals in 2012: I love Wikileaks! >Liberals in 2017: Wikileaks is obviously working for Russia! >Podesta's email password was literally "password". Obviously that takes some next level super cracker that only Russians are capable of. >Trump & anyone associated w him is spied on for over a year. Probably illegally >Mah Russian collusion meme didn't start until Dems lost the election since they can't cover it up now & need justification on the spying
Its shill TV, and liberals are slurping it up like the lap dogs we all know they are. Anyone with half a fuckin brain can tell what's going on with all this, and I personally hate Trump. But me hating him doesn't mean I gotta go full retard.
Andrew White
Fox News is the only cable news worth watching. Fact.
Logan Rogers
How's the sexual harassment lawsuits going over at Fox?
Mason Wright
Glenn Greenwald is one the few liberal reporters who hasn't lost his mind.
the lengths you fucking garbage are going to muddy the water to protect cheeto corrupto is embarassing
get the fuck off this board
Zachary Rodriguez
Man the news is terrible but I fucking love CSPAN, which is ironically funded by all the cable companies.
I'm also in the same boat with the bundled services. Cheaper for me to pay for TV and Internet than just Internet. I was holding out for Google Fiber (which was being installed in my city) but that seems to have died in a morass of litigation
Nathaniel Gray

jesus mang
Aaron Clark
>hillary clinton literally gets the debate questions to a presidential debate ahead of time >covered in the news for one day and never spoken of again
why do they do this
and why do people get mad when you say that if the other side did it they would have covered it for months when that statement is true
Michael White
It's not news anymore. It's sensationalistic "journalism" crafted to make money off whatever brand your organization is shilling.
Wyatt Morgan
>Jeffrey Adam "Jeff" Zucker (born April 9, 1965) is the current president of CNN Worldwide. >Zucker lives about 10 blocks from Trump Tower, and three of his four children still attend the same Upper West Side private school as Trump’s youngest son, Barron. “I like Donald,” Zucker told me, before quickly correcting himself. “I guess I shouldn’t call him that. I like President Trump. He’s affable. He’s funny.” He paused, searching for another adjective.
Nicholas Kelly
>At a postelection panel sponsored by Harvard University, Zucker’s alma mater, a political reporter for The Washington Post, Karen Tumulty, drew cheers when she pressed him about his willingness to provide a platform to “nut-job surrogates” like Katrina Pierson, the Trump campaign spokeswoman who asserted on CNN that President Obama invaded Afghanistan. Zucker surely knew that his hiring of Lewandowski would create controversy and in turn give his anchors something to talk about. That is exactly what happened: The hiring became a cable-news story about cable news.
>As Zucker sees it, his pro-Trump panelists are not just spokespeople for a worldview; they are “characters in a drama,” members of CNN’s extended ensemble cast. “Everybody says, ‘Oh, I can’t believe you have Jeffery Lord or Kayleigh McEnany,’ but you know what?” Zucker told me with some satisfaction. “They know who Jeffrey Lord and Kayleigh McEnany are.”

>still bringing up hillary when the election is over and trump literally signed your privacy away
incredible
Jaxon Wilson
Yes I sure am mad about my ISP selling my data when google, youtube, facebook, every social media website, and my cell phone carrier has been doing just that since 2005
Landon Lopez
The problem is the 24 hour news cycle. Obviously there isn't enough major news to fill 24 hours, so cable channels have to fill time with over-analysis, speculation and opinion pieces. This makes arguing about the news more important than the news itself.
Kayden Morris
I think you mean Obama my man.
The fact that crooked Hillary still has not faced any consequences for rigging democracy and murdering staffers who leaked her emails is incredible.
Nicholas Lopez
>implying privacy has existed since 2001
pathetic
Parker Jones
Alright, so if they do it then it's okay for the rest too! So much for making america great again
Isaac Morales
*blocks your answer*
why aren't you watching the show that is the sworn enemy of lying, pomposity, smugness and groupthink?

how is ISP selling your data not free market
its not even data that can personally identify you. all of the data they sell is just anonymous stuff like what you clicked on
Blake James

Why do you still give a shit about Hillary? The election is over and Trump is president. If anything, you're the shill since you seem to mindlessly defend the establishment no matter how retarded it is

t. increasingly nervous trump supporter
The man famous for "Art of the Deal", a book he didn't even write, can't even negotiate with his own party, except when it comes to letting ISPs sell your browsing data
That's because of Trump. He controls the military, his party controls Congress. Why doesn't he do anything?
It's because he lied and he never gave a shit about locking her up. He was friends for Hillary for years and donated to the Clinton Foundation
Parker Moore

Nathaniel Williams
Again, thanks for the input, Vlad
Michael Sullivan
It's literally a dnc-funded talking point. Did you think you just came up with this isp shit on your own? Top kek. Don't worry about the real spying story though, CNN has informed the public that it's all just fake news.

Go to a different internet provider. (WOW Cable) for example or (RCN)
Jackson Ross
if you own a smartphone you are being tracked
period
Henry Morris
It's literally Trump and Congress letting ISP's sell your private information. That's pretty bad regardless of whether you are a Democrat or a Republican. It's amazing that you're defending this because "muh democrats" when they don't even control Congress and have no power
Elijah Hernandez
And lowering his and his friends taxes And making America look even more retarded than ever before
Wyatt Bailey
Because Dems and Reps are two sides of the same coin. Each side is controlled opposition for the other. We're trapped in a fucking loop and nothing can break it.
Nolan Martinez
i dont see why the corporate tax rate shouldnt be lowered
its already the highest out of any developed country at 35%
Blake Price
No it's not. It's literally nothing. Nothing at all has changed. The only thing that happened was the switch from FCC to FTC. Susan Rice is still being subpoenaed. You are not stopping this no matter what millennial boogeyman conjure.
Joseph Murphy
No problem I'm getting paid either way bois
Landon Jackson
Yes. It's so fake that Trump planted an anti net neutrality lawyer to the FCC and nearly all of the Republican senators voted on a bill to sell your browser history.
Nathaniel Nguyen
>he owns a smartphone
Aaron Martinez
>its not even data that can personally identify you. LOL, he actually believes this.
Ian Bell
Too bad we have more tax deductions for corporations than any other developed country and the biggest companies in the country don't even pay taxes because they write off their taxes in shell companies in the carribean
Liam Richardson
Shitty thread. Not Sup Forums related

i bet you dont even know how a writeoff works
Wyatt Sullivan
All cable is shit, even Fox, except for Tucker when he's cucking lefties. Hannity as well whenever he plays a video or shows something that the nation should know.
This blog will give you the Mainstream media redpill even though it's lefty.
Jason Young
Susan Rice is going to jail and Obama will be subpoenaed. The usefulness of these sort of astro turfing campaigns is diminishing. You have no credibility and no control over government. You've basically been resigned to autistic screeching.
But hey, good luck with this isp shill campaign. It didn't catch on the first two weeks you tried it, maybe this week it will.
Christopher Cruz
>get exposed >starts posting this HAHAHAAH

And the FTC literally can't enforce anything. Saying "b-but it's under the FTC" is meaningless. Keep shilling for Trump though

Michael Reyes
Cable news has been shit since the beginning. CNN fucking broadcasting a "covert" landing in Somalia was all you needed to know at that point.
Cable in general is shit, I don't know how so many people were jewed into that shit. Antenna TV has always been there, and it's not like the mass majority of cable users don't live in areas of good broadcast coverage.
Justin Evans
tv in the 50s was pretty good
Nathan Scott
What are they supposed to be enforcing? Do you even know what you're talking about?
Dylan Gonzalez

Levi Thomas
So you believe there's been no foul play whatsoever between the Trump campaign and Russia?
If so, why have he and all of his subordinates lied about their connections?
Why were conservatives investigative and suspicious of the executive branch right up until they won the election?
>inb4 CTR shill; i want HRCs emails + transcripts and i want Trump's taxes too
Jaxson Nguyen
Why is nobody answering your question, Tuck?
Isaac Thomas
You can tell because it's being largely ignored.
Jack Foster
I don't have to know things. I'm a liberal.

Jordan Walker
If an ISP decides to sell your browsing data they can just shrug their shoulders and go "tough luck". None of their guidelines are actually enforced under the law.
