CNN refused to broadcast President Donald Trump’s White House address on Thursday, July 16, after his “history of false statements.”
After the move, CNN was hit with a wave of backlash from viewers as many found the move to be a form of censorship. On X, one person wrote, “Unbelievable and unacceptable, no more ‘objectivity’ CNN has no credibility……all news outlets should air any President live AND LET THEIR VIEWERS DECIDE THEIR OWN OPINIONS OF LIVE PRESIDENTS NATIONAL ADDRESSES.”
Extremely passive aggressive comment. But do what you need to. Outlets have always used things like omission, framing etc to shape opinion. The fact that there are so few now with even fewer owners has only exacerbated the issue. Understanding an outlets bias will help you identify that framing or intuit what was omitted. It should be a basic understanding every person should have. It’s the only real check that would keep the outfits as honest as possible.
You seem to be very intent on lecturing rather than discussing. I am not interested.
If you want discussion discuss. You are the one lecturing. Do you have an issue with what I’ve said? Please explain it let’s discuss. You don’t have to be passive aggressive lecturing.
You are not a professor. Lemmy is not your classroom. People here are not your students. Not a single one of us is required to read or respond when you bloviate. Nor do we have to entertain your ridiculous attempt to redefine common words like ‘lecture’ for your convenience.
On Lemmy and nearly everywhere else in life, adults can choose to ignore you completely. Please refer to this message as needed when there is no response to additional comments.
Yet you don’t. You just keep coming back with projection. Well here let me be the adult. Bye Felicia.
