I'm thinking he is tired of the corruption CNN blatantly covers up, and wants the true news to be reported...

Even he questioned where Obama was really born at and was shut up before it caused any more problems..

Lucky for you there's still a station called Fox News which can give you all the right-wing news you can handle.

Well out of all of the news stations i have to say FOX is the only channel that spews the LEAST amount of there beliefs.. MSNBC, CNBC, CNN and the others are always furthest from the truth, or they just plain don't report it...

I'm not a huge news person cause i can't stand to here what they think and not what really happened, but FOX gives more of the truth then anyone else..

of course this is just my opinion.. :)

I think NPR tells the truth more often than any other. I also like how Anderson Cooper calls people out on BS all the time. He is my fav. CNN anchor.

Hannity and Beck are way to far right for me.. I can't stand listening to either one of them. I like Hemmer and Kelly and O'Rielly..

I do like Anderson Cooper. I'm shocked he still has a job with CNN.. Thought they would have booted him by now for not being 100% left.. :)

I think we all saw this coming a while ago. I hear Lou Dobbs used to be pretty good. But in the last few years the only thing I hear when I turn on CNN at 4pm is a story about Illegal Aliens..

Lou Dobbs is not news. He is the equivalent of a newspaper op-ed column. If CNN wants to go to straight news, then I'm glad Lou Dobbs is gone, but I'm dissappointed that CNN has not changed its format completely. MSNBC and FOXNEWS have the majority of its shows as partisan commentary. CNN has its shows as an anchor who is a moderator and brings in partisan hacks.

Anderson is actually a real journalists and has done some great in the field reporting compared to his competetion--unfortuantely, half of his show is left versus right.

I have realized reading through some of the posts on here that most of ya'll here are conservatives or libertarians, and I am the opposite and a progressive. I find all the cable news netowrks to be way to partisan and all they are is entertainment. I like Daily Show not because its news, but because it breaks down the news into the true form and then shows the hypocracy of the cable news networks.


Glenn Beck, Olbermann, Maddow, Orielly, Gretta, etc are all opinion peeps. They make controversy and feed off of it. I'm glad that FNC is challenging Obama, I jus think they are doing it in an unfair manner. They are calling Obama a Mao-ist, socialist, and implying he is a communist which is unfair. FNC also has been biased in their news reporting in that they are supporting an agenda. Its the same as MSNBC. MSNBC (in primetime) has supported liberal causes. THey have backed this president a lot when they would not have backed bush. Obama has acted a lot like Bush since his inaguaration. I'm proud that Obama has not deployed m ore troops to afghanistan without an exit policy, and I thinkt hat is smart.

Healthcare is the biggest issue nowadays, and MSNBC has criticized Obama for his lack of progressiveness, while FNC criticized Obama for being a communist.

I think that both news networks needs to take a step back and do true analysis. CNN is stuck in that they think non-partisan is bringing up health care and having pro-health care reform versus anti-health care reform.

Instead they need to actually get rid of political analysts and speak the truth. Lou Dobbs was great when he stuck to reporting the truth, when he went into the opinion media he railed against immigration. He claimed it was illegal immigration, but he often attacked people who were here legally and even attacked the Mexican president. He went way out there and stopped being reliable. I hope to see Dobbs on Fox Business as he does that well and is very intelligent regarding economics so long as he doesn't put his opinion into it.

I feel FNC reports on many issues that America needs to be informed about that, its the things the other networks refuse to mention. SOMEONE has to point out the corruption in the White House. We all know that is a full time job, both left and right!
