>What bias do you think CNN has?
CNN was openly anti-Trump for the entire administration, as in, instructions were literally passed down that reporting should be slanted in such a way as to taint him.
It isn't a case of having to think they have a bias, it's a case of literally being told that bias is part of their policy.
It wasn't hard to spot, either. Their reportage during the Trump administration was absurd. You'd have headlines and first-paragraphs that were contradicted by the entire rest of the article; the headline and intro para made Trump look bad, the rest of the article begrudgingly attempted to convey the facts. It was utter nonsense.

- Lascaille 5y agoThere was an incident with a whistleblower - a CNN reporter - recorded in a restaurant relating how there'd be a narrative line passed down from the top every day. You'll have to dig it up as I can't remember the guy's name. Was relatively widely reported.
