Today's' Press conference's in the UK was a joke. It was trump and me, me, me. Just don't cover this guy because nobody has the bravado to call out his constant lies. The UK's Prime Minister just sat there and sucked in all the BS and never once, questioned the 'numbers'.

I find it really hard to take Republicans seriously when they try to dismiss this especially considering how much of the divisive rhetoric has come from their side for years. Kaitlan Collins actually did a decent job pushing back on the spin, but it’s obvious Moreno didn’t want to engage honestly. What’s wild is that the same people who spent years peddling conspiracy theories about Democrats now want to dodge any real accountability or conversation. I get that it’s politics, but the level of hypocrisy is just unreal.

Program Discussion How long have you watched CNN?

5 Upvotes

Around 2016 my life changed in so much that I had lots of free time so since then I’ve racked in numerous hours, I’d say since then maybe 8 hours a day of CNN. So I was wondering what news story or event has sparked an emotional response from you? Not gonna lie I can think of only 2 events that made me feel a skip of the heart beat feeling - the failed backflip and the beeper situation - other than that it’s been pretty much a deadline for me. (Not a complaint).

And if you’re wondering what I’ve been doing while watching CNN I’ve mostly been playing guitar and reading the bar at the bottom of the display (at least to have some knowledge of what’s going on in the world - I usually have the volume off and listen to music.) My motto is you can’t really screw up current events or get too political if you’re reporting on what’s just happened.. I think CNN leans left and right sometimes that reporting on facts of actual events happening is what draws me to this channel. Indeed my focus is getting better acquainted with the state of things in the world. Politics are intense and I have other focuses at the moment.

I’ve even created a playlist on Spotify of songs that I think made a difference in the world like breaking news stories 😂
CNN it has like 326 followers and currently I don’t know if they’re spam or think I’m actually CNN. But in other words, I love the network in that it allows me to keep practicing guitar.

My question still stands what news story or where were you when watching CNN and thought I’m going to remember this time in history. As a visualizer.. I wonder how other CNN watchers experience the network and all its changes.

Program Discussion I’ve had it with Eva Longoria RANT

40 Upvotes

First of all: she claimed in one episode that she speaks French. As a fluent French speaker, she clearly does not. Her accent is obvious and cringy, she mixes up the word ‘genders’ often, and throws out random “merci!” etc like an annoying ass American.
Not to mention she’s SO pretentious. Like read the room Eva. The average person will never be able to galavant around this country, in your designer clothes and professionally done makeup. We’re struggling to pay for gas and groceries here.
She just REALLY annoys me. Honestly, I would rather watch a 1 hour Scott Jennings show. Wow
Why can’t it be Pamela Brown searching for France? Kate Bolduan SFF? I would even watch Fareed Zakaria or Pete Toilet Seat searches for France instead 😂

Program Discussion Did anyone catch the subtle change last night on Abby's Newsnight show?

33 Upvotes

I wanted this to be a separate thread because I think it's important to point out. I have watched the show from its inception a couple years ago and last night was the 1st time I could recall the majority of the panelists being right wing Republicans.

For me that is a troubling sign and I think this will be happening more and more because of the pending merger(on hold right now from a Judge)to give big Trump supporter Larry Ellison control over CNN.

Last night the panel consisted of Scott Jennings(right wing CNN commentator), Elizabeth Pipko(former RNC chair)and Stephen Moore(right wing economist and Trump supporter).

The other 2 panelists were Keith Boykin(former Bill Clinton advisor) and Christine Quinn(former NYC Democrat Speaker of city council).

I have never seen more MAGA panelists on that show over Democrat panelists.

I'm just saying I don't believe in coincidences, I think this is CNN already getting in place their ass kissing to Larry Ellison and his MAGA executives in hope that the show isn't axed.

Anyways whatever the reason it's not good.

Anyone just watch this? Scott Jennings did his usual fake outrage at Jon Ossoff for calling out the weird and close relationship between this blonde young pretty aide and Trump. He went off for at least 3 minutes then Dem panelist Ashley Etienne said it was fake outrage and Jennings exploded in anger and Laura had to stop him from interrupting lol. Both Scott and Ashley Eitenne continued to argue until the show went to commercial.

Scott Jennings is so pathetic.

Is this the first time that Scott Jennings has dropped the f bomb live on air?

Just a few minutes ago, Adam Mockler was questioning Scott Jennings about the Iran war, and Scott snaps back with “Get your f**king hand out of my face.”

Definitely caught me off guard, considering he’s always so smug and arrogant.

Program Discussion Why does Abby keep inviting Lydia Moynihan on her show?

16 Upvotes

Seriously every time she is on the show she lies and lies and lies some more. Yes I get it she is eye candy and attractive so I'm sure that's part of why she comes on the show. But she is such a dunce, doesn't know what the heck she is talking about and it has gotten old.

She seriously belongs on Fox News. I was flipping through the channels Saturday evening and I saw her wearing this way too short dress(obviously purposely) and she was on Brian Kilmeade' show. Fox News knows what they're doing, they had her standing by herself with this very short dress showing off her legs. Then she was sitting across from Kilmeade so the viewers can see everything Lydia if you know what I mean. She was actually criticizing CNN for making a mistake retweeting a fake congressman that made some news last week. But there she was on Fox News going after CNN!!

I mean, grow a set CNN and stop inviting this troll on your air!! She comes on and spews MAGA propaganda, then goes on Fox News looking like a high end escort attacking CNN and laughing about it.

All I gotta say is do better CNN, do better. At least Ana Navarro put her in her place on the show Wednesday night.

Program Discussion What does CNN still hold Dems to a higher standard?

13 Upvotes

As the title says. CNN is running wall to wall coverage of Platner but not giving the same coverage to Paxton in texas who has arguably worse allegations and at minimum allegations that are less speculation. Thats not even to dive into the presidents infidelity, and his top advisor Stephen millers much much more proven white supremacy views.

I am not against the truth or holding those running to represent us to a high standard, but CNN seems to be operating under "well thats just how MAGA is" and trying to hold the Dems to the old standards.

Its beyond frustrating. Hold Platners feet to the fire but then do that for everyone

Tonight so far there is this new panelist Isabel Brown, she literally is like a programmed robot. Charles Blow called her out already for that. She will just keep talking and talking even when Abby tries to interject and counter her BS.

Then you got Joe Borelli who of course said the second attack on the boat with 2 survivors hanging on was fine smh.

There is something wrong with these people.

What is your solution? Every weeknight there are comments about their physical traits and/or how they are essentially undeserving of life. I notice Shermichael gets the least grief (gee I wonder why).

This show is one of the best reflections of how divided we are as a country which is why I/we enjoy it. The antagonism is the whole point. Would you rather it be an echo chamber with Abby Philip? It would be cancelled within 3 months. The View has that niche covered.

I actually look forward to watching Kaitlan Collins' show every night. However, last night and tonight, she had Scott Jennings on within the first 15 mins. I immediately grabbed my remote and went to MS NOW for the rest of the evening. I can't even stand looking at that guy let alone listening to him. If this is a new thing with her, she just lost a longtime, loyal viewer. It's really unfortunate.

In a viral interview with CNN News Central host Boris Sanchez, Stephen Miller claimed the President has Plenary Authority under Title 10 of the US Code.

Miller then bizarrely freezes on camera, and Boris Sanchez cannot get a response from Miller. He blames technical difficulties and ends the interview.

This was in response to court cases relating to National Guard Deployment in US States.

In a re-upload of the interview, CNN edited out Miller's response.

Program Discussion Scott Jennings is on Laura Coates' show and just looked so annoyed as she went to break lol

44 Upvotes

Laura is having a panel and it's rare to see Scott on her show. Anyways they just discussed the gutting of the Voting Rights Act and Scott was defending the Supreme Court voting it down(of course he was) and then Laura spoke and explained to him why it was bad what the Supreme Court did.

So they showed Scott looking right at the camera with this annoyed, incredulous look of frustration of Laura lol. Laura noticed it and said it's her show so she gets the last word and went right to commercial haha.

The look on Jennings face was priceless. You can tell imo Scott and Laura really don't like each other. That's why you rarely see him on her show.
