CNN albeit very biased is not as bad as some other MSM news like NPR and MSNBC.
We are lucky that our new generation do not watch that garbage and get their news in real time on platforms like IG, YouTube, Tik Tok and X.
It is a shame that the presidential debate is not happening on one of the newer unbiased platforms with younger moderators.

After a 750 million dollar settlement Fox News admitted to being fake news. Actually, the "official" statement by Fox came a few years previous. Their representative said, flat out, that the truth wasn't part of their business plan. As I recall, Fox was dragged before a government agency ( FCC? ) for persistent lying. The company said, in effect, if we're sanctioned, we'll leave broadcast and go strictly to cable. The FCC should have said: "make my day" Cable is on life-support ... without sports, it would have been gone a decade ago.

So when NPR interviews a Democrat, then interviews a Republican on the same subject that's not being fair? Don't see much of that on Fox. Every Friday NPR has opposing political commentators debate each other and even agree on some of their issues from time to time. Those who adhere to radical views don't like it, but it goes to show that even those in opposition can agree on some issues, and agree to disagree on others. Civility is not dead...yet.

Thats David Brooks, far right hates David Brooks. They do not consider him a Republican.

That is not my experience with NPR. I typically listen to it during the morning and early PM shows and they are extremely biased. The shows named: Fresh Air 1A On Point Here and Now All are left leaning or left

Everything CNN says is fake news...so it's more about trying to point out something that is truthful.

I hope the moderation of the presidential debate is not biased but I am not holding my breath given the moderators.

I am sure no matter what happens, there will be claims of bias, there always is.

As we can see, it's already starting.
Use of the "mute button" will be interesting if or when Trump goes on one of his bombastic discourses.
I'm already seeing comments about the "mute button" from the sycophants about how this will be unfair to Trump.
