CNN sucks

How pathetic, makes you wonder just how much shit they try and force feed us...

 

[Icarusintel]

I'd say CNN should be ashamed of themselves, but this seems to be standard practice. It's too bad all the shitty, manipulative reporting gets in the way of good journalism.

If I was Cena, I would sue.

 

[Druckles]

Woah... I can almost lipread!

Yeah, no sound, but I got the gist, and I'm appalled. But in reality, you can't complain too much. It's the media, and it's what they're known for. They're practically made to force feed us "shit".

Kind've starting to remind me of a Big Brother kind of society

 

[CptStern]

meh CNN isnt so bad ...so long as you realise it's more "Infotainment" than journalism

 

[Tyguy]

But they didn't just bend the truth, they took what he said out of context and anyone watching this interview would assume he uses steroids. isn't that a good case for defamation of character? The weird thing is that even with the WWE filming the interview, they still have the audacity to pull this shit.

 

[CptStern]

ya but that happens all the time in far more important issues than whether some "entertainer" is pumping himself full of juice or not

get in the back of the line WWE, you're not that important in the grand scheme of things

 

[Qonfused]

Horrible.

 

[Irksome]

Ok, first off...

CNN is an American media outlet, and since America is number 1, anything that is part of, made by, or loosely related to in any way shape or form the Greatest Country on Gods Earth, AKA America, is instantly pardoned of any and all wrong-doing or fault that may or may not have happened.

MOVE ALONG, NOTHING TO SEE HERE.

PS: Brad and Jen are getting back together, more at 8. Also in other news some soldier died, war in Iraq, whatever. BUT BRAD AND JEN ARE BACK TOGETHER.

Was going to shout at you for your previous comment, but I feel all is forgive by my lol.

[The Monkey]

I don't see what the problem is. That seems to be a pretty standard question.

Quoted for the truth. I stopped watching TV about 5 years ago because of all the crap it's saturated with. It's slowly turning our society into panicked morons. I can watch the good shows online if I want. This interview editing really pisses me off. Cena was giving a very thoughtful and personal interview, and CNN butchers it to take it vastly out of context.

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

What else is new?

P.S. F*CK YOU NANCY GRACE.

 

[Krynn72]

The problem wasnt the question, its how they edited his answer to make him seem suspicious, and make it seem like he was lying, or not telling the truth about it.

 

[Qonfused]

Yeah. In fact, his answer was very thought-filled and political/social. A part of me wants to say if they aired the real interview, it would have made more headlines; but not in this day and age. A wrestler shadily admitting he uses steroids? Instant viewers.

 

[nurizeko]

The two biggest things about America that makes me glad I don't live there is the state of US politics and how it carries itself, and the state of the American media and press.

Oh and soft appeasement gun laws based on a comfort blanket called a part of the bill of rights or something.




In conclusion, nothing new or special coming from an American "news" show.

I'de care more but wrestling is fake and a yawn. :dozey:

 

[Wanted Bob]

Shameful.
