Anderson Cooper and CNN were so perplexed that Northam is a Democrat and they aren't able to MF a Republican, the segment where Northam issued an apology, the CNN chyron identified him as a Republican.
You can't really blame CNN, after all he is acting like a Republican.
So you have no expectation that CNN needs to get facts straight? Facts to which there are essentially 2 choices?
If that is your stance it pretty much makes CNN the liberal version of FOX news that liberals accuse of bias.
You should expect and demand more from your news sources. OR you should realize they are manipulating people.

My views on these matters remain unchanged since the Kavanaugh scandal. Many of us have done things in the past that seemed harmless at the time but, when judged by today's standards, they are unacceptable.

We all hope these episodes will stay buried in the past, but they sometimes resurface years later. When they do, it's Incumbent on all of us to do the right thing. Kavanaugh chose not to. Will the Governor also?

TT...you must have missed the report. All the Kavenough accusations were proven false.


New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

Proven false, or misbelieved by Republican Senators?

One of Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh’s accusers admitted this week that she made up her lurid tale of a backseat car rape, saying it “was a tactic” to try to derail the judge’s confirmation to the Supreme Court

That was one of his accusers. What about the others?

Then why make an excuse for the inexcusable? Inexcusable if you want to be a legitimate member of the so called 4th estate. And hopefully you realize newspapers also manipulate the news.

newspapers do not need to fill up space 24 hours a day 7 days a week. They are also archived making them more accountable to the truth.

I do not believe they manipulate the news they do offer a certain perspective but it is not a lie.

When you offer the same "perspective" day after day by what you choose to print, what not to print and how much you print on a given topic that is the very definition of manipulation.
Manipulation does not equate to out and out lies.

Craig,

Donald Trump has made 4200+ false or very misleading statements since being elected. If newspapers report this, are they manipulating facts?
