I was perusing the CNN show this morning CNN This Morning with Kasie Hunt. I was surprised to see that they had no, zero, none, segments concerning the misinformation and lies being spread and pushed by Trump and the GOP. Those lies have caused issues for those gullible enough to believe them. And they didn't have one segment - 5 minutes - on the subject.
I have noticed this at other times too when Trump and the GOP have spread lies, the cat eating Haitians in Ohio for example. They had relatively small coverage on that topic as compared to other outlets.
I am disappointed in them. I used to believe that CNN was near center in reporting - meaning, they didn't lean as far left as MSNBC and also didn't lean as far right as FOX . Maybe it was just that one show in this instance, but I have generally noticed this in other shows too. I think the change seemed to happen around the same time they left Don Lemon go from their employ.
Is it just me?

Try Scripps News, which is available live OTA on different broadcast channels, or streaming, or on cable. Just go to https://www.scrippsnews.com/ to find it near you. It's a lot like the news coverage we used to take for granted.

Thanks for the tip Jeff. I'm on my way there after here. A very good friend of mine is a fellow film editor and she got her start working on documentaries for Scripps Howard way back in the early 2000's and she ended up editing the rebooted Carl Sagan series COSMOS a couple of years ago. So I've always had a fondness for Scripps, but I only heard about their news channel a month ago, to which Mary replied in shock, almost "apologizing" because she had assumed I knew it was live on cable. It is relatively new on cable but apparently they began streaming a couple of years ago.
