    In many cases over decades yes they have proven themselves liars.

    They all spin. But CNN has a long history of creative editing. Never trust a video from them. 

    There was an interview they did with Ron Paul years ago which they played and made it look as if he got mad and stormed off. In fact, the interview was over but they edited out 30sec then ran it. The reporter kept repeating one word....then after the 30sec started repeating it again. So it flowed better. 
    It was on YouTube...may still be.

    I'd venture to say that CNN is more likely to report accurately than FOX.

    What has Fox reported false? 

    Most of the news does not lie...they simply ignore the stories they dislike. CNN actively edits to lie.

  • No, I don't agree. I wouldn't agree with that statement about Fox News either. They are far from perfect, both biased, but that doesn't mean everything they report is incorrect.

    Not so much fake but more they spin it they want it to sound for their own agenda.  Although they all at times jump at some tip and do not verify and if they do retract it will be quick and not repeated.

    I haven't watched CNN since the night of the Bush/Gore election.  As far as I can tell they have just gone downhill from that night when, in order to be first, called the race incorrectly.  I have read many many times since then reports of their failed reporting, lack of reporting,  and back peddling and recently video clips of unimaginable nastiness...............unimaginable!!!

    YEAH, I know - all just fake news outlets except "FAUX".

    critical thinking has been variously defined as follows: "The process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating information to reach an answer or conclusion" "Disciplined thinking that is clear, rational, open-minded, and informed by evidence". 

    More people should try critical thinking...

    The following supposedly magazine article is fake new but it is interesting...

    Beans is repeating that which he knows was never said.  This has been proven as FALSE over and over and over on social media and fact check sites.  When you have nothing true to offer, lie. This post was edited by Thriftymaid at November 9, 2018 12:48 PM MST

    That quote may be untrue, but you can't tell me that the president and his minions have not lied either.

    I'm guessing you haven't yet seen or heard about the doctored video the White House, via Sarah Sanders put out about the incident with Jim Acosta and the intern.  Then again, if the administration puts out lies and doctored material it's OK because they live in an alternative universe.
