So, it is just now coming to my attention that thanks to a complicit corporate media who doesn't talk about things like this, many Americans are confused re: CNN, its intentions, and why it had a town hall for a fascist. Let me tell you what they apparently are not telling you on the news:

A rich nazi bought CNN months ago and is pretending he's making it more like Fox to "be profitable." He is not. He's a rich nazi, spending his money the way rich nazis do - to spread nazisim.

@AnarchoNinaWrites I did not know that - thanks. Who is this rich Nazi that owns CNN now?

@ravensview His name is John Malone, he's on the BoD of Warner Brothers, and he's the guy mandating that CNN go fash.

@AnarchoNinaWrites OK - I had to do some digging, you're not sharing much here. LOL.
Warner Bros, a publicly traded company, owns CNN, not Malone. But he is on the Board of Directors and likely a major shareholder, and has a lot of influence. His mandate seems for CNN to be less liberal, more centric. A wider range of news coverage, meaning #BothSideIsm I think. Means add more right wing content - possibly some Nazi supporters in there but doesn't make him one I think. However, since left wing seems to usually support logic and science more than right wing, the flavour will change and will be worrisome. It's another businessman shaping the media and people's minds to elect politicians that will increase his wealth.

Why billionaire John Malone’s shadow looms over CNN

CNN is now owned by Warner Brothers Discovery, which wants it to change. So does board member and cable TV giant John Malone.
