Anderson Cooper: people who decided they're done with CNN after the recent debacle are choosing a Trump-free "silo"
No Anderson, Trump's lies, treason, and criminality have permeated every fucking corner of American life. Dropping CNN like a sack full of angry vipers will not end that in any way. It'll just give CNN what it deserves for participating in the damage.
This is starting to sound like Twitter. No, Anderson doesn't lie for a living. He's a dedicated and talented journalist who expressed a position that isn't popular.
What's sad to me is that we, as a nation, get this incensed over a difference of opinion.
He's a highly respected journalist who is reporting in a way that is inconvenient for your priors.
If you think his reporting a lie, that's proof of the fact his reporting offends your priors.
And actually, Cooper is an interesting and unique person in that he separated himself from his mother's name and inheritance and earned his own way. And his mother wasn't a journalist, so nepotism would not have come into play.
(I can already see this conversation headed for a block.)
I block inane people who can't seem to carry on a rational, intelligent conversation.

Texas. 😏
I did realize later that that could be misconstrued as Art of the Deal being required reading; it was not. It was just everywhere at the time, and in my mind the only memories of any conversation regarding it are solely associated with the school lunch table.
Now, Atlas Shrugged; THAT was required reading. 🙄 Didn't read that garbage, either.
YES! That’s exactly what the country needs—a trump-free media!
trump should’ve been SHUNNED a lifetime ago, certainly after he made his presidency about white supremacy, and emphatically after he instigated sedition against the United States!!
C’mon—there’s no excuse to let this bastard dictate the public square. There are numerous “newsmakers” that the media doesn’t platform because they are too disgusting.
@Nonya_Bidniss I would ask Anderson Cooper what he feels is the proper ratio of truth to lies that one must hear, in order to have a "balanced" perspective.
Truth is not a silo.
Yeah, that's the ticket!
"The Pathological Liar" was a comedian not a townhall news event. I would think a news guy would understand the difference.
Maybe not in 2023, where corporate profits are at stake.
Apologists of terrorists are terrorist supporters. CNN must face the consequences of its acts.
@Nonya_Bidniss
I've been thinking, if conservatism and Nazism are abysmal ideologies, why do we accept them? They harm our fellow human beings.
"Ideological diversity" my ass. If you're gonna feed me illiberal lies, you can expect me to protect my brain from your bullshit.
@Nonya_Bidniss
Confusing, but true.
If we allow antidemocrats to thrive, democracy will fall apart.
@Nonya_Bidniss people who decided they’re done with FELNN after the recent debacle are choosing a face-eating leopard-free “silo”.
Yeah… I don’t want face-eating leopards anywhere near my… face.
I think people are misdirecting their anger and frustration toward Cooper and CNN. The news has to cover Trump in some form or another.
The opportunity they miss is finding an effective technique to cover him. The guy has a pretty simple shtick that he repeats ad nauseam. The journalist who figures out the most effective method to respond, and teaches the rest of the news world, will be forever famous.
