Unlike Faux News- most news orgs try to separate op-ed from news reporting. Not saying she was wrong- just not the right forum for that. Also- libel. CNN might have been worried about a possible law suit if she continued on. Theres a video floating around of Don Lemon interviewing a police officer (a Sheriff I believe) about Black Lives Matter and the Sheriff surprises Don by being very anti BLM and Don ties himself in knots trying to "win" the debate. The best part is, Don cited a study to prove his point, the Sheriff then quoted from the same study to prove his point and Don said well the study isnt legit or something. Hilarious. CNN definitely has an agenda, like most companies, whether they are news or not. IC Khari 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNN definitely has an agenda, like most companies, whether they are news or not. Sure, there is an agenda- just not the one you are probably looking for. The a$wer i$ obviou$. That interview with Sheriff David Clarke was indeed cringe worthy, but that is what it was and interview- not a debate. Every time Don asked David a question, he would answer the question with a loaded question aimed squarely @ Don and demanded he answer the question and take a personal stance. That is a YYYUUUGE no no in journalism. Don played it right and didn't get personally involved. Oh, and the study wasn't dismissed by Don- just the illogical conclusion that Sheriff David was trying to make. It is truly fascinating what differing conclusions we came to with the same video. This is the one, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 Yes and I reject your notion outright. Sheriff had a lot of interesting perspectives that Don didnt want to hear. I respectfully disagree with you. And Im making no judgement on either side either. I think it was clear Don disagreed with the Sheriff and didnt want any discussion about that at all.

I think it was clear Don disagreed with the Sheriff and didnt want any discussion about that at all. What notion are you rejecting? The interview is about the Sheriff and his take on things, not Don's. That is how an interview works. No one should care what Don thinks he is the interviewer. And you are 100% correct in that Don didn't want any discussion about it at all- it is an interview not a debate. His discomfort comes from trying to corral the Sheriff into an interview format and the Sheriff clearly wanted a debate format. I think Don's personal opinion is moot. The tone is set in the first few lines: Quote Don: I spoke to the heads of the sheriff's department the police department and the state police down there and they told us how their hearts were reeling their message is peace and coming together in the country. what's your message? Sheriff: you don't believe that for one minute do you? is that their message? Don: yeah that's what they said to me Sheriff: ok yeah believe them (sarcasm) . protesters over the deaths of these cops today in Baton Rouge? Don: I don't know that I don't know any ... Sheriff: protest over the police officers in dallas texas? The Sheriff is mocking Don's statement about "reeling hearts.. and peace", yet Don only has what the department's have said to go on, he doesn't know if they are lying. I mean wow- he came outta the gates swinging at Don. And it continues through out the interview. The Sheriff is constantly wanting Don's personal opinion- which is a No no in journalism. So I am not too sure what notion of mine you are rejecting? FTR, much of what the Sheriff says is not wrong.

iso_55 Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Ted Cruz may have deep sixed his political career this evening. Didn't endorse Trump & said that Republicans should vote with their conscience. He was booed off the stage. Heidi Cruz had to be escorted out of the arena. Ted went to a donor's private suite where he was screamed at to his face. One GOP official had to be restrained as he was going to physically attack Cruz. Looks like there is a lot of anger directed towards Cruz when didn't live up to the GOP pledge which he signed to support the Republican Nominee.

Cruz is playing for the 2020 nomination... only guy deep-sixing his career this week is Chris Christie I can't believe Cruz even spoke at the convention... Trump treated him like garbage.

kelownabomberfan Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 (edited) I realize the left is tearing its guts out that Trump is the Republican nominee but boo-hoo, you little snowflakes brought this on yourselves with your political correctness and constant guilt garbage. I am no fan of Trump, but he's going to wipe the floor with your precious lying Hillary. Why? Because he doesn't play by the rules. Why? Because he doesn't have to. He doesn't have to worry about running for governor or keeping his Senate seat after this election. It's all hands on deck all out warfare, and Hillary doesn't stand a chance. She's fighting a guy with a machine gun with stone age weaponry. Case in point: Stick a fork in her. Hillary is done.

Can you explain how political correctness from the left made the right choose Trump? The angry old white guys who run the gop, who have been telling their base for years that the brown people are invading and their country is being stolen from them, may have more to do with it... You preach militant nationalism to uneducated people and Trump is what you get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 (edited) Trump. Lol. Kept thinking Tim Kaine was the NJ governor instead of the Virginia one. The guy is just spewing crap over and over. It's sad actually. The 2 options are ****** and turd. It's not who is the best candidate because both are lying pieces of crap. It's who is the lesser of the 2 evils Hillary is a lying bag of crap. Trump is an old man who just bullies people. I feel for America. Bernie should be the nominee instead but hillary cheated.

Angry young white men can't win elections all on their own anymore. Asking the Russians to hand over Hillary's emails is so stupid it's actually funny.Funny because the living hairpiece actually believes it.
