Not surprised. CNN and Fox are news COMMENTARY, not news. Nhk and AlJazeera are more objective in reporting U.S. news.

Exactly. CNN loves Trump and vice versa. It’s one big eyeball attraction contest and you simpletons fall for it every time.
CNN anchors were secretly rooting for Trump’s re-election so they could keep bashing him for ever more lucrative contracts. Trump needed them as well.
Now they’re both screwed by some old wanderer named Robinette.

So one of the strongest economies in recent history (prior to media-driven covid insurgency), historic brokered peace deals in the Middle East, a secure southern border and energy independence was a "disaster"? Yes it was...for the progressivist socialist agenda. I didn't vote for Trump in 2016 due to his toxic rhetoric, but his actual policies (other than the disastrous covid concession to Fauci et al) were remarkably moderate, balanced and effective, unlike the warped and deranged propaganda of MSM directed against him.
Are they still selling "Russia Collusion" to their gullible uneducated audience?
I guess Brain Stelter isn't going to be able to get his hair weave.
CNN came to relevance during Desert Storm. Ever since then their strategy has been to cover conflict. Failing that, then create conflict. Totally corrupt. Although their numbers are shrinking, I am still amazed at the numbers that still tune in.

1) Trump was just a disaster because he's a moronic, amoral, criminal, fool. His being a disaster wasn't a plan on his part to get ratings for anyone.
2) CNN does not love Trump, and Trump does not love CNN. Ridiculous comment.
3) No freakin' way were CNN anchors rooting for Trump's re-election. Another ridiculous comment.
4) The only thing above that is correct that was said by either of you above is this - "The reality is most of us don’t follow politics or watch these stations in general - but when trump was a total disaster we had to watch to try and figure out wtf was going on." THAT is true and right on the money. Everything said by both of you after that is nonsense.
You're welcome.

Are you really a person who is this stupid? Every day with Trump in office was a national crisis. People watch the news when there's a national crisis. CNN's drop off in viewership has nothing to do with viewers thinking CNN is Democrat propaganda. Just BS. The volcano is no longer erupting. People have gone about their lives post-Trump.

CNN was actually pretty good for most of its existence, but Trump broke their brains, and they became a weird far-left version of Fox. They are practically unreadable and unwatchable now, unless you are actively seeking validation of a very skewed and erroneous world view that wish to develop in yourself.
CNN's opinion hosts went after Trump because Trump is an amoral criminal dictator wannabe a$$hole. Jake Tapper and Chris Cuomo criticized Obama plenty when he was in office...not as much as they criticized Trump though, because Trump DESERVED MUCH MORE CRITICISM. Cuomo kept giving that witch Kellyanne Conway a place to spew her nonsense. That was more fair than he should have been.
There is NO left-wing equivalent to Fox News. Not even MSNBC is in that category. Fox News, except for a few weeks in there before they determined everyone was jumping ship to go watch NewsMax, is pro-Trump and anti-Democrat ALL THE TIME, complete with egregious lies. CNN does NOT do that as a matter of course.
Trump is a moron. He and his followers are anti-American and stupid beyond description.

The volcano is no longer erupting?! Are you nucking futs? Trump had it under control.
Their audience is keeling over dead from old age. Only people who haven't found a better source of information than cable TV.
They only succeeded in making cable mainstream because Peter Arnett cleverly went to Baghdad before the Persian Gulf war so he'd be the only one at the scene when the US air force pounded it for a month. Before then cable was a sideshow.

The only thing Trump had under control was the feeble minds of your dumb@ss Trumpers. Easily the worst President ever. Only one to be impeached twice. Only one to lose popular vote twice. Impeached twice in ONE TERM! F'ing loser.

Cool story, changed my life.
Trump should sue CNN for a billion dollars because they used him and his name for clout. He should end these MFers for good but they'd just rebrand with a new name and similar agenda if that happened. Funny how covid mania stopped for a month in the two weeks before and after the election, huh CNN. You fear mongering, misleading, narrative manipulating, evil minded clowns. CNN and their employees/enablers belong behind bars but of course there's no accountabolity for these lovers and that's why they get away with their tired act.
Trump drove clicks and airtime, no surprise. He kept it interesting while also loving america and fighting for our country. Very misunderstood.
No one wants to read/watch kameltoe feeding rocky road ice cream to Joe in his basement.
Yeah, you are right. After the USA election finished lots of people aren't watching news.

Trump was a ratings bonanza for CNN and media outlets in general so it kind of depends on how one parses "love". There was certainly mutual co-dependence.
Nobody watches the Weather Channel on a sunny day.
2020-2021 was the end of the line for CNN and the like
People have really started to wake up to the control

People still don't get it. Trump said a lot of dumb things because he's not articulate, but most of the "Trump disaster" was a media fabrication. For 4 years the mainstream democrat-shill media tried to have us all think that the country was always on the brink of disaster, that every decision Trump made was completely wrong or somehow racist. That disaster never came, except maybe covid which was overblown as Trump's fault even though the US vastly outperformed what the models were predicting in terms of total deaths.
My friends parents actively worried about getting deported because they were Muslim, even though they were citizens and from eastern Europe - guess what that never happened because there were never mass deportations of people simply for being Muslim. I saw a video of a woman harassing a guy with a Trump hat because she was Hispanic and believed Trump was going to commit mass genocide against Hispanics and I've heard that many people thought Trump was going to lead an uprising of white supremacists - never happened, and don't compare the Jan 6th insurrection that was committed independent of Trump and mostly contained a bunch of trolls taking pictures with guards inside the capitol. Trump was very far from perfect, but the media definitely created a level of mass psychosis surrounding him through propaganda.

Well imagine the Weather Channel constantly predicting tornadoes, earthquakes and tsunamis that never come and you have a good analogy to CNN and Trump.
