They are selling Nothing Burgers.
And enough loons are buying them to keep them afloat.

Not sure what is getting you guys riled up.....???
CNN is doing what a lot of other business do, targeted marketing.
They have found an audience, or need, just like FOX did, and they fill it with whatever means they think will sell, which means $$$$$.

The folks who feed on it, are already looking for this product, not that CNN is converting them into botheads.

One of those socialist dudes years ago said a free press would cause the fall of democracy, is he right?
I dunno.

It will be interesting to see how Palins lawsuit against the NYT irons out.
However, I doubt it will change anything. It's like thinking tougher gun laws, or drug laws, will stop the illegal use of them. We see the effects of that reasoning  

I think Palin's suit is potentially a big deal for NYT. All papers and most media are struggling financially and NYT is no different.

ABC just settled their pink slime case with BPI (something of career importance for me so i've followed closely) and one factor was money. If ABC lost, would have appealed and could have lost again. Not sure they could have afforded that.

NYT is definitely guilty of libel against her it's just a matter of how hard they'll fight. They might use this as a fundraising opportunity of sorts.
Doubledown with their liberal base and get cash flow moving again.

I'd like to think Palin would resist all attempts to settle but she bailed on governorship rather than fight so not sure she can walk away from the settlement offer they'll eventually make her.

They don't have the ability to do that Jog without willing participants.

Your actions, it seems, is akin to a huge mob of polar opposite demonstrators, as they vehemently yell at each other.....
The effect looks great in TV, wow, such strong emotions, gotta tap into that energy and sell it to the viewers.....
However, the ones shouting drown out any chance at hearing a resolution because they can't hear over their own shouts.

Which, allows the media the opportunity to keep orchestrating the narrative.

The, ‘Media’,  (news), after  Murrow,
Started it’s decline, and in the last years it has slowly gotten worse,
 (One Sided)

In the last 8 years, it has spiraled down, big time.

Why, all the,  ‘Fake News’, talk now?
People have, WOKEN UP, and  KNOW, the  LIES, they have been fed.

So it will take 2-6 years to get the, ‘Media’, Back,
   to telling the  Truth, and reporting the, ’News’,
    with out bias one way or the other.

And it will  ONLY, happen, if the Pressure is kept up.

Gee, it may even go back to:
  “Here is the News,
   and here is our, Editorial”

Operation Mockingbird

In an openly Authoritarian society the people are controlled by the Iron Fist.
In an allegedly Free society, people are controlled by what they believe.
A government wants its people to be supportive of what the people in power want to do.
Our information sources have been being manipulated for a very long time.

Jog, I offer it has always had partisan spin, they were just better at it, more covert.
What is changing is the desperation as the media as a whole is losing their ability to control the news/spin, with Tweeter being a perfect example of taking away their bully pulpit and inserting himself in it  

The internet is a game changer, and those who rely on the established media is a dying dinosaur.
This explains how so many got the election wrong....
