When Twitter purged Russian bot followers in June, CNN tweeted this: "President Trump and Katy Perry among Twitter users hit hardest by follower purge https://cnnmon.ie/2KVgIkj"[1] https://cnnmon.ie/2KVgIkj"[1]. When reading the article, one will find that Trump lost the second to last fewest followers in absolute terms (204,000) and the fewest in relative terms (0.4 %) out of all the Twitter users mentioned. The closest relative loss was 1.7% of "the main New York Times account". President Obama lost "nearly 2.4 million" followers, or 2.3%. Given these facts, I believe it is an indication of political bias on behalf of the CNN to mention "President Trump" as the first thing when tweeting about the article.

But if that is the case, why did the tweet have to cast Trump in a negative light? It could have just as well been "Trump lost barely any followers compared to Katy Perry and Barack Obama! What a whopper of a surprise!".
