    What happened to CNN being “fake news”? CNN is probably lying here too, right? Odd that this would be in a conservative community, but it is just too tempting not to post because of confirmation bias, I suppose.

    This post just shows how oblivious most propagandists are to cognitive dissonance.

        Didn’t you know? It’s like the #1 mantra of most conservatives. Eesh. Even I know what you are supposed to hate more than you do. It’s not like I haven’t heard it enough from the mouths of your political leaders.

      No, even the shitty, biased to dems, CNN is calling out their bullshit - when your own turns on you, it’s a pretty clear sign.

      If you’d read the article, you’d know what they’re saying is accurate. They explain each point, and if you bother to stay abreast of the subjects, you’d know what CNN is talking about.

        Out of curiosity, would you agree this also applies to the numerous Republicans, former allies and employees who have turned on Trump?

        These fact checking posts have been done by CNN since the age of time and have been fairly even when calling out bad information.

        It still doesn’t negate the fact that CNN is still on your “fake news” list.

        I’m sure you meant something else though.

    Well, good, it shows CNN is being fair and not solely checking Trump’s lies.

    Man, wouldn’t it be neat if Fox would start fact checking Trump…? I mean, obvs. no one is gonna believe CNN when they check Trump, so Fox should do it, since they’re believable.

    Right?

    Wouldn’t that be neat?

        So, they fact-checked one claim by Trump. One.

        Let’s see them do a whole speech.
