CNN really gets it wrong  | | CNN actually talked about the tea parties today. That really shocked me. But the whole story was about how Fox news was covering them and how bad that was. Not really about the ralies or why they were happening. Of course it was not put in a postive or even unbiased light. THey made it sound like Fox news started the whole thing and they didn't. It is a grassroots project. CNN even admitted that until now they have not covered to protests and tea parties on purpose and that Fox was irresponsible for giving it any air time at all.They also called the tea parties "anti Obama". Which I do not think is not true. Anti some of the democratic party politics? Anti wasteful spending?Yes but no against Obama personally. But against some of the corrupt and wasteful practices that have been going on in washington by our elected officials for WAY TOO LONG.
What do you think? Should CNN have purposely ignored these events? When they did cover it should they have done it in a more unbiased way? Is CNN even trying to make the appearance of looking unbiased anymore? Should a news organization spend their time opening attacking another news organization?

| | | | | | | | 11. deejean06 (1160) | 9 months ago | Hi lilwonders...I stopped watching CNN when Glenn Beck switched to Foxnews. I know I probably should listen to all sides of the story but I just don't.
I don't think that the parties are specifically anti-Obama. However for someone who campaigned on change and hope, there is very little change in Washington for everyone involved. I do believe that the parties are specifically against the onslaught of taxes and bailouts which have been put into place in a very short amount of time. After all I don't even know if the President has been in office 100 days and already the American people are breaking under the weight of debt, which again was railed against during the campaign and rightly so.
Should CNN have reported these events? Maybe, maybe not - but where are their ratings? That should speak volumes about who is paying attention to them on a regular basis and how people want their news reported.
