RateItAll: The Opinion Network

CNN lives up to the legacy of thoughtful, analytical journalism of the highest quality more often that other outlets. Please don't give in to "infortainment"!

cnn stoops about as low as one can go.. not only are they continually bashing hillary, but questioning her daughter in front of a huge audience re the indiscretion of her father... alll those years back, when Chelsey was a little girl! What kind of sadists are the anchors ...mostly black who love obama, but others like Wolf Blitzer.. and ESPECIALLY CAFFERTY.. WHOSE HATE FOR HILLARY IS EXPERESSED EVER TIME HE IS ON LINE, EVEN IF HILLARY NOT MENTIONED CAFFERTY MANAGES TO BRING HER NAME UP AND KICK THE POOR BLEEDING WOMAN WHILE SHE IS ALREADY DOWN..

CNN is a nice mix of conservative and moderate viewpoints.

love them and their hot anchors

CNN claims to have the best political team on television. I agree, but Kelli Arena stands out on that team as the only correspondent on television who I trust to report the real story about what's going on in Washington. It's good to know there are still a few TV reporters out there who act like real people I'd actually want to grab a drink with. Wise up CNN, Kelli's got panache! Why doesn't she have her own show?!

Fair to Good. Good reporting and in-depth coverage. Will say, and most others are guilty, of spending to much time on junk like Anna Nichole Smith. Ok she died, I'm sorry, but she was not that important and every day coverage is not news!

This Communist news network is the worst! All you hear from it is unimportant topics or extreme liberal views. This country's finished if they continue to put down our troops and anything good that's happened to our country. You should hear what they had to say about a family who lost their son in war. They responded to the father who said "How come you guys report nothing but negativity about our country?", by saying, "It's our job to do so, even if it means downing the country,Not our problem, we just report the fires. It's a democracy." Its horrible and i think it should stop.

I really do tend to spend all day with CNN on, I especially like Lou Dobbs, he has the pulse of what is going on long before it hits other news shows, sometimes he is 2 weeks ahead of them catching wind of stories, good for him, shame on them! EVERY politician in Washington DC should be required to watch Lou Dobbs show!!!!!

What Fox claims to be but is not: Fair and balanced.

i like it cuz it seems to be right on top of things. if something major is happening you know cnn will have coverage. plus its the channel i flip it to during commercials on other shows im watching

From 6 am until noon...the mos informative entertaing news show there is. Great enesemble of personalities...save for the mondo' drivel of 3 thee witty wannabes in the pop culture segment.

GREAT NETWORK...others can claim many things, but they can't claim to be the first...CNN was the first 24 hour news channel in the world...a pioneer that started it all...and with more bureaus and resources around the planet, it is still light years ahead when it comes to hard news and breaking stories from around the world!

CNN appears to be biased because liberal principles and journalistic principles overlap - a fact of life. That said, they do have SOME annoing anchors - Heidi Collins, Carol Lin, and Tony Snow. Not what they say, but how they say it, like they just invented the English language, putting emphasis on certain words for no reason - looks like they don't know what they are talking about.

Has the least annoying news anchors of the big 3 cable networks. Focuses too much on negativity in the news. But all the networks do that. Still has the most experienced and best world coverage on issues. contrary to views from the right, it appears to me to try to be objective in its reporting. But sometimes, they just report the facts, as unflattering as it is to Bush and pals.

The daddy of all news networks and lets face it no one come close today. They usually have the story first and have the best coverage of all the networks.

The liberal bias on this network has been proven time and time again and thats why CNN has earned the name- The Clinton News Network.

miles obrien's body language toward pro kerry and subject of mike more - appauling!! his female co-anchor i am appreciating a certain look in her eye that seems to say god. i am on this corrupt news network - maybe i won't return from pregnancy leave. my family and so many many others feel that watching cnn is up there with reading the national enquirer in the supermarket check out line. what is happening to this country. truly. i am very frightened. upon reading farheneight 451, 1984 and past empire collapses i am truly truly scared of dick cheney!

Some good anchors who keep it fair and balanced while others have an unabashed liberal bias.

CNN is BULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL@*!

This is one of the worst News Network imports to disgrace cable television in the UK. I feel sorry for any being who is subjected to this garbage deeming this nonsense as a factual and informative station. Where to start? International World News is not a whole programme dedicated to Iraq, theres also Sierra Leone, South Africa, Australia, Spain, Russia, Ireland, Scotland, Germany, Hong Kong and countless other parts of the globe that these lazy cretins can't be bothered to report and investigate. If I asked someone at CNN where they thought Kenya was they'll probably ask me what State that is in America.

This network should be in Bagdad. They still cover up anything favorable about America.

KELLY ARENA PRESENTS A FAIR UNBAISED REPORT ON JUSTICE DEPARTMENT MATTERS. JUDITH WEST

Don't trust it.

If it weren't for Kelli Arena I'd be watching FOX news!

I used to love CNN. Watched it 24/7 for years. Now I can't even watch at all! What happened to their integrity? Same shot from the same Baghdad hotel all the time...Novak and Plame-gate, more fluff than news! It's sad, but I guess when Saudi Arabia owns $1B in stocks in your company and spends millions more everyday on advertising for Kingdom Holdings, you would tend not to report the fact that Bush is married to the Saudi's and our children are dying for OIL! Shame on you CNN!

My first choice for regular news. Much better then Fox News, and I am no Al Franken fan but he had some good points about O'Reilly and Hannitty and Combs.

cnn a leader? i think not! all they do is promote there own views and products and shows, and networks and interest. if your a clinton lover or love 1 sided stuff cnn is for you if ya want unbiased politics c-span is commercial free and shown in full unlike news where they choose what soundbite they want for real news foxnews is the only place you get both sides to any news story,event etc... how many democrats to republicans does cnn have? very few republicans

Have watched CNN since it's beginning and although it has changed, and sometimes not for the better, it is still the best cable news channel and I will continue to watch it exclusively.

Give it up, CNN and quit trying so hard! It's so obvious that they're posers...posing as "news" people when their first priority is pushing an agenda on the American people. By not calling 9-11 a terrorists attack in the beginning, they alienated a lot of the free-thinking folks out here. They are no longer the news-leader, which I'm glad about.

BAD! How do they stay on the air when they are much more biased than most of the mainstream media? I will not waste one minute of my time watching any news program that does not present the "facts" in the way they should, or just putting a "spin" on them. I guess they pander to the uninformed.

More international news please. Instead of repeating the same stories over and over (Laci Peterson, Iraq, etc.), they should show some world news that could inform and educate Americans. I'm sure there's all kinds of interesting things going on in New Zealand or Singapore or Mongolia.

CNN is the standard for cable news! What I like about it is the PROFESSIONAL anchors, you rarely see them commenting personally on the news, like you see the very unprofessional Fox News people do all the time. For my money, the news is to be REPORTED, not a personal opinion report, and that is what CNN does. Then, if you want more personal reporting, you can tune into their shows like Aaron Brown, who I love.

GET OFF THE AIR

CNN is a liberal, bias channel. I agree with CanadaSucks, though, its not that bad. They do have early breaking news thats fast, but not as fast as FoxNews. They are Fox wannabees. They make thier channel look like Fox's. Connie Chung is a joke!

CNN IS IN THE NEWS BUSINESS,NOT NEWS ,COMEDY,DARE SHOWS,GAME SHOWS, ETC. CNN BRINGS THE NEWS TO YOU 24/7,SOMETIMES IT MAY NOT BE WHAT WE WANT TO HEAR BUT THIS IS REAL LIFE. THEIR REPORTERS LIVE WHAT THEY REPORT, THEIR NEWSCASTERS ARE VERY PROFESSIONAL. I WAS A PERSON WHO ALWAYS TURNED TO A MAJOR NETWORK NEWS,THOUGHT THAT WAS SIGNIFFICUT,BUT WATCHING CNN DURING THE PRESENT CONFLICT AND VEIWING AS A BEEN THERE DONE THAT AS FAR AS BEING A VETERAN. I STARTED WATCHING AFTER THE MAJOR FIGHTING WAS OVER AND MOST OTHER STATIONS HAD GONE TO REGULAR PROGRAMING, THERE IS MORE NEWS THAN CAN BE REPORTED IN THIRTY MINUTES A FEW TIMES A DAY. IF YOU WANT FLUFF IN THE MORNINGS WATCH THE MAJOR NETWORKS,IF YOU WANT REALLITY WATCH CNN NIGHT OR DAY ! THEIR REPORTERS AND JOURNALISTS DO NOT VY FOR PUBLICITY THEY DO THEIR JOBS VERY PROFESSIONALLY AND THEY SEEM TO GIVE A SPECIAL CARING OUTLOOK AND ARE PLEASENT TO WATCH, NOT PISS YOU OFF AND TURN TO ANOTHER PROGRAM. GIVE CNN A CHANCE I DONOT THINK YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED ! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK CNN;PAULA,WOLF,BILL,LOU,DARYON,AND ALL THE OTHERS ! KUDOS CNN SETS THE STANDARDS.

Fox news is about the most biased, good-ole-boy channel out there. Brit Hume sounds like he's had a tracheotomy and his buttkissing to Rumsfeld and Bush is so stupid. CNN may not be as good as some international outlets, but it far exceeds the crap on Fox and MSNBC. A foreign friend of mine seriously asked if Fox was a state run news outlet. So all you Bush worshipping podunks can go right ahead thinking you're getting accurate news. No wonder the rest of the world thinks Americans are so dumb.

Home of Larry Seltzer, the name says it all!

tabloid! biased! I think you your t.v.'s are stuck on Fox. CNN may be a bit liberal, but at least they have real news (exception: Connie Chung) compared to the conservative banntering crap on Fox. CNN always breaks news first and has some of the best and most experienced journalists around, Unlike Fox who says you're ANTI-American if you don't agree w/ Bush.

Direct Telecast from white house.

Too left-biased in news reporting. Thank goodness for FOX.

One sided news, not for me, Goodbye cnn hello FOX news channel.

It's getting worse. . .there is a slight liberal slant but I don't think it is as bad as conservatives say. . .the real problem is CNN is just full of puff-stories that are worthless. CNN international (ASIA) is much better. Do the real talented people leave America?

cnn can kiss my conservative arse.

Still the best

LIBERAL LIBERAL LIBERAL !!!!!

Do they really take themselves seriously? Their ratings are falling as fast as dot com stocks. People are tired of Clinton News Network & the overt bias. It's called bankruptcy & it's coming.

Bias. Absolutely. Showboaters. Yep! Watched by our enemies. Yep! Has decent Wall Street coverage because those are facts that can't be swayed. CNN needs to present the news and not opinions. With AOL and Turner involved what would you expect.

Tabloid news cast - drama to get people to watch - very poor

Worst propoganda team on earth now that all the agents from the key networks are onboard. Blitzer, Shaw, Kalbs, Woodruff, Kagan, and all the old media talking heads there now. It's turned into a global propoganda machine and is no longer a source for news. Ted - you sold out the American people.
