quote from Quora, at
https://www.quora.com/Are-CNN-and-MSNBC-considered-left-wing Iwan Doherty, Editor of The People's News Answered May 28 "Are CNN and MSNBC considered left wing?" Not particularly. MSNBC might pass just on the left for the world political scale, CNN is pretty centrist. The point is most of America’s ‘Left’ are simply centrists Liberals, Obama and Hillary certainly on the right of the spectrum on a global scale. Which is why the rest of the world stands and laughs at the GOP. MSNBC from when I watched it seemed to support Bernie Sanders, who is one of the few Left politicians in America. If it went on to support any true Left wingers in the Democrats it could brand itself as a voice of Social Democracy, and the American people. CNN is what most American media networks are. The voice of establishment centrists. Except Fox which is the voice of establishment right wingers. Due to the fact they’re run by rich Americans it is very unlikely they will ever become left wing. The reason they are considered Left wing is because the GOP has moved so far they can no longer see the center of the spectrum. Right wing Americans who watch British politics must be cowering behind the sofa at Corbyn’s rise, a man who makes Bernie Sanders look like a Liberal." Pretty much as I and a good part of the "rest" of the world sees it.

Well, if journalism is all about noble causes, science, crusaders for truth and justice. How exactly do they maintain a profit and audience? When I think about people like Carl Bernstein Bob Woodward etc. etc. They did a great job uncovering nefarious politics in the White House. But in between the times when the proverbial blind squirrel finds the nut what exactly do they fill your mind with? I'll tell you its for the most all a big social media gossip rag filled crap. But its that crap which keeps people with boring miserable lives tuned in preferring the smell of one pile of crap over the other or even going as far to tell others how their source of big steaming piles crap doesn't stink.

"Right wing media outlets, such as Fox News Network, Rush Limbaugh's show, and others have for years been openly biased, showing favoritism towards Republicans and hostility toward Democrats. Those media outlets and the Republicans have convinced their viewers, readers, and voters that almost all other news outlets are “liberal, left wing” organizations. But until recent months and years, most of the media (other than right wing media) was not biased at all, outside their editorial pages and in clearly identified opinion pieces. Unlike right wing media, other news agencies followed the standards taught in journalism schools, which was to report the news in an unbiased manner by explaining both the pros and cons of a given situation and interviewing people who represent all the opposing sides and viewpoints of any controversial issue. If a Democrat was asked to give a viewpoint, a Republican was also asked to give his or her viewpoint. Words that have “loaded” meanings were avoided in both the headlines and the content of the story, to further avoid bias. Despite the commonly repeated label of “liberal media,” that right wingers toss around so frequently, there was traditionally almost no such thing as “liberal media” among the major networks, newspapers, and news magazines. But biased “right wing media” has existed for two decades or longer. Unfortunately, in the past few years some of the previously unbiased media has begun using the tactics of Fox and the other right wingers, which means they sometimes slip the reporters' opinions into “hard news” stories and don't always try to cover all sides and opinions concerning controversial stories. But most still label pure opinion pieces as being “opinions,” which is something Fox and other right wing media don’t always do."

"S.E. Cupp is a CNN political commentator and the host of "S.E. Cupp Unfiltered," covering contemporary issues on HLN." But be it as it may, the fact that they let those other-minded opinions stand and publish them, speaks for them. Quote:

Who is this person, Sharon Taylor that you are quoting from this site and why should I consider her opinion valid? I've never heard of her and can't find anything about her on the web. You've just found some anonymous person who agrees with you.

I came across this article addressing a conspiracy theory about Moore's loss to Jones making the rounds in Alt-Right circles. It gave me a good laugh because I have, in the past, used the same process of questioning the logistics needed to carry out some of the really ludicrous theories as a means of debunking them; this is one of the best breakdowns and putdowns I've seen:

But what about Microsoft, Google etc.? Their shares just took a hit due to this very decision. Now a high speed internet line available for everybody, can artificially be switched down to low speed. Until you pay more, for 'premium' speed, 'premium' packages and all that bovine scatology.
