More balanced? But I've been told that they are already the definitive source for news. Joe Biden has said to Don Lemon, "Now, I know you only tell the truth ...". Do you mean to say that up to this point, they've been BIASED?

Knock me over with a feather.


More plainly, one has to have a modicum of balance in the first place before becoming "more balanced". CNN had none. Nada. Zippo. Zilch. Bupkis.

I think CNN has a ways to go before reaching the balanced coverage seen with South Park.

Kenny McCormick really brings it.

"Pairofballs, you do know that communism and fascism are diametrically opposed right?"

Seeing as they're practically the same thing, based on collectivism and authoritarianism, I would say "No."

What was the name of that party again?

AE, I don’t know, I don’t watch CNN. I really don’t trust commercial news.

I have shown one of my information sources, where does the extreme right wing get theirs? The mind ponders if that’s where all the little, crass nicknames come from.

CMT, and how do you see that they are similar? Other than the useless hitler comparison.

"I have shown one of my information sources, where does the extreme right wing get theirs?"

Based on this comment, it appears as though poster considers himself "extreme left wing" and this is one of his news sources. Makes sense as this source is a fairly obvious mix of some hard news with a larger portion of left biased commentary. Whatever works for you....

As to the socialism/fascism discussion. Marx theorized a transition from capitalism to socialism to communism. He believed all countries should become capitalist and develop that productive capacity, and then workers would naturally revolt, leading to communism whereby the workers would become the dominant social class and collectively control the means of production. Unfortunately for Herr Marx, later theorists became disillusioned with the real world results: First, the Stalinist version became an embarrassment to the cause, even though the New York Times tried to cover it up. Second, people started to notice that capitalism was too successful. The vast majority of workers became middle-class, fat and happy......not very interested in revolution nor transition to sharing the fruits of their labor with layabouts and hobos.

That's the Marxian view, obviously a ridiculously utopian concept and completely unsuccessful in practice. However, consider "socialism" on a sliding scale. It seems important to determine where one lands on the balance between laissez faire capitalism vs. complete state ownership/control.
Or, as is practiced in all Western countries, government regulated capitalism with a large safety net.....not normally labelled as socialism but some may consider it such.

The terms of HX debates, never having been set in stone, leaves ones imagination capable of all manner of extreme personality attribution. The parties herein involved in HX intercourse appear to have little interest in cajolery but considerable desire to crush their enemies souls, if not their lives.

This eternal and never-ending battle between "creators/producers" vs. "redistributionists" will never end. Having witnessed this for nigh 15 years, I can only offer the following suggestion:
Kneecap the bitch then tear his/her head off and shit in their skull.

I sincerely hope that helps to guide you in your future discourse.
Oh, and fuck the Progs.

'That's the Marxian view, obviously a ridiculously utopian concept'

Unfortunately that's true. But you could say the same about capitalism - if allowed to run to it's purest form unchecked what you get is an economic system where only a small portion of the population benefits from the economy while the other 80% -90% struggle - Adam Smith - A Wealth of Nations
.
That's what is happening today because of constant deregulation of every sector - banks and wall street, insurance, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, energy, transportation, tech etcetc.

To have an economy where everyone can participate you have to have leaders that have a moral sense of 'we're all in this together'. That moral sense died with the WWII generation, it's one of the reasons they are/were The Greatest Generation.

Atticus, I'd disagree with you on "constant deregulation" in every sector.

Quite the contrary, I think it's pretty clear that things are more regulated now than ever before, and continue to be more regulated as time progresses.

since the 30's the interstate commerce clause has been the justification to unfettered regulation & micromanagement by bureaucrats, most times without any written laws, just the internal authority of the agencies.

Banks & wall street - ever review the regs by FDIC, SEC & about a dozen others? Banks are micromanaged by the type & quality & assets that back loans. I could go on, but please, banks cant make a move without checking if it meets their regs.
Insurance - regulated by the states, and most times, even the applications, policy texts, endorsements, let alone what they are permitted to charge & what they must pay are regulated.
pharma - Why are drugs cheaper in other countries & so expensive here - it's not the greed of the companies - it's to offset regulatory costs.
healthcare - bitch please - one word. Obama care
energy - try to open a new coal fired power plant. Regulations favor "renewables" even thorugh they aren't very cost effective per kwh - over petrochemical - ANY petrochemical.
Transportation - fleet mandated minimal MPG - a gazillion regulations on the transportation industry - and more are put on each year.
Tech (etc) - perhaps the least regulated industry?? but there is a constant push to regulate it more, especially when it becomes critical of the establishment. (

Back to the original post - CNN - far left leaning institution that has become it's own echo chamber, writing puff peices on stuff they like, and being biased and critical on things that they don't.

When there are countless news sources out there where people can choose, CNN can see to survive, they need to adapt .

When biden & his proposed "ministry of truth" to combat the few right of center media outlets, shit hit the fan, I'm sure it left MSNBC & CNN & others a bit surprised, they have been accustomed to writing opinion peices and presented biased results.

No wonder they "say" they will more balanced - I doubt it, CNN & others are much like the scorpion in the old fable that wants to cross the river.

Who says you can't have an intelligent post on HX?
There's 2 in a row!
Then, HeyI'mAShitShow posted.
Oh well.....

"But you could say the same about capitalism - if allowed to run to it's purest form unchecked what you get is an economic system where only a small portion of the population benefits from the economy while the other 80% -90% struggle - Adam Smith - A Wealth of Nations"

Well, that was Mr. Smith's opinion, doesn't mean he's correct.
But, let's assume he is.
There's no denying the reality that capitalism has led to the "rise of all boats", as JFK put it.
Marxism, communism, socialism all lead to "equality in poverty"
Again, the US is 5% of world population with over 50% of world wealth.
Almost everybody clamors to ENTER the US and you can always freely leave, if you like..
How many are fighting to immigate to North Korea or Cuba or any such also-ran and why do work so hard to stop you from fleeing?

As has been pointed out, capitalism is the worst system of all........
Except for all the others.

All those media orgs are in business to sell advertising.
Judging by viewership, regardless of content, one would have to conclude that Fox is far more successful than CNN......hence the need for change there.
MSNBC?
A media joke.....

Latest 2 hires at CNN...

"John Miller was hired by the network to be its Chief Law Enforcement and Intelligence Analyst. Miller, who most recently served as Deputy Commissioner of Intelligence & Counterterrorism for the NYPD, also has experience as a journalist, including serving as a correspondent for CBS News and ABC News and co-anchoring ABC’s “20/20,” CNN said in a statement."

"Licht also announced the hiring of Dr. Tara Narula as CNN’s new Medical Correspondent. Narula previously worked at CBS News as their senior medical correspondent reporting for all CBS News broadcasts and platforms, CNN said."


Next two Lefties inline to be canned..

Puck News reported that Licht is considering dismissing Jim Acosta and Brianna Keilar from the network, although a report in the New York Post from late last month suggested that Acosta was safe — for now.

Fake news continues to reimagine itself...


"CNN’s left-wing host Don Lemon will end his primetime show, "Don Lemon Tonight," and move to mornings later this year, the network announced on Thursday.

Lemon will join CNN hosts Poppy Harlow and Kaitlan Collins on the "re-imagined" morning show that will replace the long-struggling "New Day." The move leaves CNN with a gaping hole in primetime, as "Cuomo Prime Time" still has not been replaced since its namesake host Chris Cuomo was fired last year. "

Constitutional violations...

Democrats want to Federalize elections and essentially throw out states rights to determine electors. Democrats seriously want to do away with almost all state autonomy.

Democrats frequently cite abortion as a "constitutional right" since Roe v Wade being struck down by SCOTUS. It's not a "right" cited anywhere in the Constitution. SCOTUS just moved the decision to voted on by the people rather than 9 unelected judges... deal with it.


Bill of rights...

The 1st and 2nd Amendments constantly under attack by the left. What the f*ck do you not understand about how "freedom of speech" might be under attack when cancel culture is allowed to thrive.

The left constantly tries to associate gun violence with law abiding gun owners.

Biden's FBI/DOJ are quickly resembling the Nazi Gestapo by trampling on people 4th and 6th Amendment's by conducting wild abuses of search and seizure along with long drawn out media witch hunts with redacted warrants & subpoenas.
