about this. This is the sort of thing that turned me off on CNN a long time ago. Meanwhile, I'd thought they'd improved, but apparently I was mistaken.

What on earth were they thinking? Maybe they thought they could lure some Fox News viewer over to their station, but that's never going to happen being Trump keeps attacking CNN as fake news.

They do have some good people, but they still often look like they're trying to be Fox News Lite.

It's getting closer to midterms. I'm thinking they're trying to bait and hook some independents by giving the deplorable MAGATS some food for their vile thoughts.
