What does Reuters and AP News say about the likely Trump impeachment and such?


They report on what's going on without adding gobs of partisan rhetoric rants and sensationalism. Why even ask me? You have the links, see for yourself.

I did read Reuters concerning the whistle blower, and it still sounds like Trump is up the proverbial creek without a paddle. I mean an over all bigger picture.


What I pick up on is how Reuters presents the news compared to CNN.


I am big enough to concede that CNN is becoming too uncomfortably partisan. But it's also true that Trump was the one who had picked a fight with CNN when they refused to accept his idiotic alternative facts about how his inauguration was the biggest in American history. It clearly wasn't.


I think the reason why Trump pointed a finger at CNN and not Reuters or AP and the like, is because CNN is in the hit job business. I picked up on that right away. I was quite taken aback by the way things were worded in articles. Blatant bias, hostility, accusations, sensationalism. It reminded me very much of tabloids I see at grocery store chackouts. If he was going after respectable media then I would be concerned. But to me it's more like the grievances brought against the National Enquirer and the like.

Do you seriously think it had nothing to do with CNN refusing to bow down to Trump's inane claims that can be so easily disproved? Or that Trump has a thin skin, especially when he's been caught lying?

I think it has to do with CNN operating like a tabloid and feeding off TDS. Like I said when he goes after sources that display journalistic integrity then I will become concerned. It's not like I'm thinking, heaven forbid garbage gets suppressed.

Again, Trump flew off the handle at CNN over easily disproved lies. You don't seriously think he had the largest inauguration in history, or that "there were good good people on both sides," after Heather Heyer was murdered, do you?

Reuters, Associated Press, NPR and the like reported those same events thoroughly accurately and truthfully. Obviously the problem with CNN is how it operates.

So I'm assuming your sources have been truthful about Trump's lies? Because he is a liar.

I take it that you don't believe that's a fact Trump's a liar... and a cheat... and a wannabe- strongman... and too close to the strongmen he envies, etc?

Of course he lies. All presidents and politicians lie, break promises, fanagle. But no I don't buy into the Tumputin nonsense. Just as Trump lies, lies are told about him. And I have to conclude that if he is really all that horrible, they wouldn't need to make up things about him.

CNN, MSNBC, Fox, The New York Times, The Washington Post, etc, distribute nothing but state propaganda. It's f*****g nauseating how they operate -- and so blatantly obvious, you'd have to be brain dead not to see it.

"State run news" implies it disseminates information and propaganda from the government. CNN is hardly in a position with Trump to represent the government in any way. Not as in the case of Fox or Breitbart.
