According to polls 22% of Mainers support the tax bill. Good to see Collins serving her people.

I couldn't name specifics, honestly. AP obviously, general newspaper sites (no don't know which way most papers lean).

I have an issue of people saying Fox News is biased (they are) and I say CNN is biased (they are) and then being told "false equivalency." Um.......wrong That's calling a spade a spade. Anything different, that shows bias. Just sayin'.
 
Re: POTUS 46:24 - Donald Trump! Superstar!!

Someone please ask for a newspaper and please Brent answer with "All of them."

PLEASE.

CNN is BS "news." They are in it for the glam. Now, Fox is the worst, I knew that from before I cut cable. To say that CNN is a legit source, that's just silly. To pretend otherwise exposes one's bias.

If the vast majority were against it they better not forget come November. I think the majority of people informed and paying attention were against it, but I'm surprised you think the vast majority are informed.

The polling says 75% of voters are against it, but obviously it matters how the question is asked.

The GOP is gambling that in 2018 the sides will coalesce again to the usual 50/50 split. People do come home to party during an election.

We'll see. The only check left is the people. If Republican voters continue to reward their party we will continue to get policies like this. The Founders gave us the possibility of democratic government. The actuality always depends on us.

I implore all Republican voters to carefully consider before voting for them again.

It is false equivalency.

Fox is outright propaganda. CNN might have a very slight lean to the left but is mostly neutral.
 
Re: POTUS 46:24 - Donald Trump! Superstar!!

I have no issue with calling out CNN when they do something dumb but it's not like they're nearly as biased when they actually report on things the dems do wrong such as the Donna Brazile thing. When that happens on the right Fox News is discussing the cheeseburger emoji. Heck, yesterday they didn't even report on the Flynn developments in the Russia scandal, they outright ignored it. It's blatant propaganda.

Obviously Brent is just low effort trolling per usual but still.

CNN isn't a media wing of a party, they just suck. That's the difference.

Exactly. It may suck, but it’s even suckage.

Again, use the world wide media, and you see the trend of subject and content being far more even for cnn and not even close for Fox. Of course not including the Russian state backed news, they match nicely with fox.

Jon Stewart used to take CNN apart regularly. Recall one show when he ripped Wolf Blitzer's "good thing or a bad thing" routine. Blitzer was as embarrassing as Stewart was funny. Of course, Stewart was a right wing tool going after liberal propaganda.

People are being "Slave Traded" in Libya. And because of the President and people like Brent who believe him when he says fake news. CNN's report on this issue is not believed.

A tweet by Donald Trump accusing CNN of purveying “fake news” has been seized on by Libyan media to challenge a report by the US broadcaster which suggested modern day slave auctions were being held in the country.

Over the weekend, Trump resumed his attacks on the US network, saying: “CNN International is still a major source of (Fake) news, and they represent our Nation to the WORLD very poorly. The outside world does not see the truth from them!”

But in a sign that the US president’s persistent attacks on the credibility of American news outlets has a real world effect, the broadcaster Libya 218 used the tweet to question the credibility of the CNN video.

CNN is very important. As is many other reporting organizations. If you're too dumb to figure out what's news and what isn't when watching it then you probably shouldn't be watching it in the first place.
 
Re: POTUS 46:24 - Donald Trump! Superstar!!

JFC, people. I never said CNN is fake news. I said they are biased, like every other news channel, because they are in it for ratings. That's it. :rolleyes:

Media today has become a business, and it has ruined true journalism.

I think people thought you were equating CNN with FOX news on the bias scale, Brent.

And that is incorrect. They are not equal. There are indeed different levels of bias/sensationalism/etc. However, trash is trash.
