8. I don't pretend to speak for Corona, but it's the OBAMA page on CNN,
and yet there's a heavily retouched photo of McCain on the top, listing McCain's 'accomplishments' today. Why isn't that on McCain's page?

This is in response to a thread about CNN practically doing free advertising and propaganda for McCain.

2. I just called and they are closed!!
Edited on Tue Sep-23-08 07:16 PM by 1corona4u
email is; vcm@cnn.com

They will be getting a letter from ME.

On edit, the email just bounced back to me, so they even give you a BOGUS email to contact them when you call!!

10. I just called, and reached a live person
when I started talking about what was up, he gave me a voice mail place... I left a message. Told them that this CNN Corporate lean towards McCain was evident, transparent and blatant, and it wasn't going to be put up with. Told them that not only have I stopped watching CNN for this very reason, but now, I will not be going to the website, nor would I be utilizing their CNN live viewing services either. Told them that I'm sick and tired of this thick bias, and that I wasn't going to be taking it anymore.

6. That phone # is for the television station; they transferred me to
the number for CNN.com but it's "after hours" and they "encouraged" me to send them an e-mail.
Is there another number that anyone's aware of, for the webpage?
(Guess I could go LOOK, huh?? *lol*)

Bastards. Holy shit, can they get any more blatant???

23. Check out some of the other headlines further down:
McCain's name appears first in the headlines where both names appear, and the ones only about Obama have a negative tone to them, I think.

7. They are totally a joke. When you go into the story about McCain, it
has a picture of Obama. And their entire main political page doesn't have any one story about Obama. You'd never know he was running for anything. It's all about McCain.

22. It's a conspiracy going back quite some time......
to think otherwise doesn't make sense.

I have you bothered to listen to the pundit heads since June?

They are doing their best to miseducate the public.
All they need are McCain Buttons, and they are good to go!

25. Sorry, don't agree.
I see plenty of criticism of Republicans coming from CNN as well.

26. CNN=Sockpuppets, figuratively and literally:
"CNN creates blogging policy, encourages employees to engage in sockpuppetry"

http://bloggasm.com/cnn-creates-blogging-policy-encourages-employees-to-engage-in-sockpuppetry

Of course, a HUGE problem is media consolidation, all media coming from a handful of parent companies that own cable, newspapers, internet.

What was in 2002 "the Big Ten" is now "the Big Six", CNN is part of Time-Warner, one of those six.

27. What do you expect
from a network that employs Lou Dobbs (who endorsed Obama Waffles) and that idiot Glen Beck. The only good things about CNN are Jack Cafferty and Kyra Phillips. Wish those 2 would jump ship for MSNBC. I'd trade Jack and Kyra for Joe (dead intern) and Stretch any day. I'd even throw in Patrick J. for free! Too bad we can't get all the good ones on one network-I'd never have to change channels again.

28. Maybe because every time McCain opens his mouth on the economy
it only HELPS Obama.
