Budwick and Texchik should buy CNN and remake it to a truth telling news organization

They can dispense with the existing liars there as they see fit.

Fox News isn't any better. 🙂

They all are agenda driven opinion and not news seeking or producing. @Zonuss

@Zonuss Fox is not as good as Newsmax or OANN, but CNN is a shit sandwich.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@Zonuss I hate Fox and CNN both. I just would really like to see news broad cast like it was in the '70's.
Bill Bonds on Detroit channel 7. Just the news and make your own decisions about what you saw.

@Dainbramadge Would be nice to have a truly unbiased news agency.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@JimboSaturn I think those days of even a possibility of that are far gone.
JimboSaturn · 51-55, M
@Dainbramadge That sucks for our society.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@JimboSaturn It does too because people follow the narrative they are shown and these stations are abusing their power.
I am pro Trump but I don't want to see just other pro Trump stuff.
I want to be able to see facts and make my own sense of it. :-(

@Dainbramadge I am liberal and anti-Trump but I don't want to watch news that is obviously an anti-Trump news source; right just give me the god damn news without opinion!

@Dainbramadge I remember Walter Cronkite when I was a kid in the 70's, I wish he were still around.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@NativePortlander1970 Oh yeah. Great example. Loved to watch him even at a young age.
@Dainbramadge Him and David R. Murrow were the two best newscasters, ever, told the straight news without editorializing.

Huntley and Brinkley did a nice job as well. @Dainbramadge @NativePortlander1970
@jackjjackson I don't remember Huntley, Brinkley was good, but did do a lot of editorializing, who I think started it all.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@NativePortlander1970 I don't mind a few editorials now and again but damn... mix a little news in from time to time.
@Dainbramadge Editorials were alright back in the day, but damn, they are completely off the rails nowdays.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@NativePortlander1970 Yup. One big hour of [b][i]"MY"[/i][/b] opinion.
@Dainbramadge And both sides are just as bad, Maddow and Beck both should be pulled off the air for inciting violence.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@NativePortlander1970 I agree. I hate Fox as well as CNN.
Using a supposed News channel or program to push any agenda is wrong.
People like my dad buy into that crap hook line and sinker.
He still thought that the news was like it was in the old days.

I will make a confession tho.
I only watch nickelodeon's [b]"Teen Age Mutant Ninja Turtles"[/b] any more.
If the TV is on that's what is playing. I gave up on most any other programing.

Smart man @Dainbramadge
@Dainbramadge All I watch anymore is youtube, PlutoTV, and Netflix, through my Roku, I cut the cable cord LOL
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@NativePortlander1970 Yup!! I use FireStick, Pluto, Nick. TMNT. LOL
@Dainbramadge I'm thinking of switching to the firestick, Roku is super glitchy, and I have the top of the line ultra4K streamer.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@NativePortlander1970 I have had FireStick for about two years and it is great.
Real reliable and smooth.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Roku is super slow. Other than that it works. @NativePortlander1970 @Dainbramadge
