BBE/IE: CNN

[BlameThe1st]

Long Story Short: CNN has been reporting that Clinton "won" the debate, when most polls (even their own) show that Sanders was the winner:

In fact, CNN has been deleting comments on their Facebook page that express support for Bernie: http://mediaequalizer.com/brian-maloney/2015/10/fuming-bernie-supporters-why-is-cnn-deleting-our-comments

Now, I'm far from a Bernie supporter, but this is the same sort of crap that Ron Paul faced in the media when he ran in the last election. The establishment press can't stand that a populist is challenging their agenda, so they try to cover it up with a media blackout.

The kicker? CNN is owned by Time Warner, a big donor to Hillary's campaign: http://poorrichardsnews.com/naturally-cnns-parent-company-is-one-of-hillary-clintons-biggest-donors/

Talk about things that make you go, hmm!

It's nice to see SOME chickens coming home to roost, at last.

Well, yes, particularly since the only thing they seem to do halfway decently at any time is protect some people from OTHER governments, and they tend to do a pretty half-assed job of that most of the time as well, and they only really do it because they want to tax them.
