CNN News 2

For the most part, CNN and the rest of the news channels are a complete waste of time.  Broadcast news is by and large oriented towards sensationalism and is completely devoid of any substance.  CNN likes to focus on the "horserace" aspect of politics (who is up and who is down) rather than talk about the issues.  The only broadcast news that really covers the issues with any depth is Bloomberg.  The other guys work on hysterics and are largely personality driven.  The Sunday Morning political news shows are platforms to sell agendas and the cable commentators (Anderson Cooper, Bill O'Reilly, Hannity) are mostly showbiz entertainers.  


Getting real news requires going after sources that cover different points of view rather than selecting only those that reflect a personal bias or belief system.  In our post-modern society that can be quite difficult, but it's still possible to find out what's really happening with some work and a good internet connection.

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 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!!!!!

CNN news is such a joke! On CNN News the tape at botton on the screen rolls by and says that Sudaam Hussien is about to get the " punishment he deserves" for crimes he commited more than 24 years ago. The connotation seeming to be that he doesn't deserve punishment and especially since the crimes were committed more than 24 years ago.

You make no effort to report facts without spinning the content. You don't even spin it toward the US (which I suppose you could say is also one sided journalism). You spin it in favor of the enemy. Who in the heck has control of you all anyway?

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.
