Yes, it's what law enforcement reports that matters. When has CNN ever contradicted that?


The old jump off a bridge analogy has to do with letting others do your thinking for you. Going along with whatever without questioning it.

If any news source tells me something, I want to know how they obtained that info. Such as if it was by way of law enforcement providing the details of a forensic examination, or if it was by way of hearsay based on a tip from an anonymous source or something along those lines.

Rather than, the bible CNN said it, I believe it, that settles it.


CNN in fact has a very good rep for collecting sound information, then reporting it as is. It's Trump's fan club that has besmirched CNN's reputation with false charges and imagined wrong doings.


From my perspective CNN besmirches itself along with Fox and all the other ratings hungry biased cable news network circuses.


Only according to CNN's critics. And even Fox has some legitimate news reporters like Shep Smith, though they're overshadowed by the Alt-Right opinion talking heads.

Did you miss the part where I said from my perspective? It seems like personal individual independent perspective is a foreign concept to you. Like one's thoughts must be a part of and governed by an organization.

There are in fact millions of others with your perspective, just as there are millions with my perspective.

True. But I wanted to make it clear that I speak for myself not for a team. And that my opinions are not formed by a team.

There are problems with mass immigration and intentional liberal policies to anger conservatives as we found out from one of Tony Blair's speech writers.

Let's see if these shooters have been big drug users or have an intelligence handler.


So basically, because liberal policies trigger reichwingers, it's all the liberals fault when right-wing terrorists and mass murderers act out? Calm down snowflake and stop making excuses for the inexcusable.


I'm not going to have a debate with children.


Worried they'd pants you too? :lol:

While atrocities have happened on purpose (the bombing of Dresden comes to mind), it's unfair to say every killing of civilians was intentional, or even a matter of just not giving a f*ck. The fog of war is very real.


Plenty of examples where the "good guys" are forced to intentionally kill civilians...Dresden, Nagasaki, Laos, Vietnam, Iraq,


That's sarcasm, right?


Not really it's a statement of fact (although it depends on which side of the fence you might determine who are the "good guys")

Ignore the talking heads whose job is to put spin on things and create controversy. Fox News is a reputable news source as is CNN.

I mainly tune into dry straightforward news. The times I tune into CNN and Fox and the like, I feel like I am being deluged by propaganda, hyperbole and sensationalism.

I didn't say that if you actually can read. The wars are always based on a pack of lies so every death can be blamed on the liars.

Yeah only in the eyes of a Nazi were killing millions justified or 'forced'.

CNN is worse than Infowars. And no that's more B.S. You just ignore any information that doesn't go along with what you already believe. Progressive Bernie fans chanted "CNN sucks". Jimmy Dore has big shows in California where they are all laughing and mocking how awful CNN is. You are being played.

I guess that's the thing. I tend to read the news and not watch it. Seems to me more news organizations report the actual news in print (unless it has the word Opinion in front of it, then throw out all journalistic integrity).
