Okay, but what's a real world example of that happening on CNN's website today?

  A real world example would f what didn’t happen? Putting your thumb on the scale is a lot more subtle. That’s just like asking for evidence that Chinese media isn’t biased about saying anything negative about the government.

    Or you could simply find plenty of criticism of Trump on CNN's website which would invalidate the concern.

      By putting the thumb on the scale doesn’t mean they never say anything negative. Even Fox News will occasionally criticize Trump. It means being more careful about not being overly critical

        So.. CNN is doing good, well sourced journalism?

          Are you really defending CNN when I just posted citations of the boss wanting to be careful not to offend Trump?

            You still haven't provided a single example that the desires of the boss are actually being reflected in the operation of CNN. Jeff Bezos wanted the Washington Post to go soft on Trump. Here are concrete examples of his interference: https://www.cnbc.com/2024/10/25/jeff-bezos-killed-washington-post-endorsement-of-kamala-harris-.html https://www.cnbc.com/2024/10/25/jeff-bezos-killed-washington... https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2025/03/washington-post-bezos-trump-cartoon-ann-telnaes/681406/ https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2025/03/washing...
