CNN Blackmail scandal
I seriously cannot believe the depths our major news networks are now prepared to go to suppress information.
Paul calls it the Corleone News Network and rightfully so lol. I cannot understand in this day and age of free information how people can still maintain "The murdoch press" in a way that implies that Rupert Murdoch actually has control of the ship at this point.
If that were the case, he would not have a constant supply of left wing information, and be willingly collapsing his own news empire !!!
Great vid by infowars. For those that don't know, CNN has blackmailed an online poster for creating the trump / CNN video which trump re-tweeted because it was funny.
Corleone News Network
THIS IS LIKE WATERGATE FOR JOURNALISTS !!!!

There is a lot wrong with the major news organizations. I listen less and less to any of them. Upvoted.
its so good to watch, i've been involved in youtube to some degree since the very beginning, and even as far back as that i used to watch infowars when nobody knew what it was, which in the day did have a whole lot of tin foil hat conspiracies which is what a lot of them were, but its now become one of, if not THE major news networks with a lot of well thought out research.
Inside the right wing echo chamber, this is "blackmail"; everywhere else it's yawn. Tempest, meet teapot.
no i'd have to disagree its blackmail any way you look at it. Its non-partisan. I'd have to ask why you are even on steemit if you have so much faith in the existing networks ?
Who said I have faith in the existing networks?
HanAssholeSolo posted an idiotic gif. Then the Supreme Leader stole the idiotic gif and sent out yet another immature tweet promoting violence against the Fourth Estate. Then CNN wrote an email saying X and HanAssholeSolo for whatever reason issued an apology. Then the echo chamber jumped to the conclusion that X = blackmail. Not remotely nonpartisan as nobody outside the echo chamber jumped to the same conclusion.
Well it was a humorous gif, thats why its gone viral, and i did watch the CNN video where they posted the actual response, and the reporter walked viewers through the response and it was exactly as the news is now telling us. That is CNN made a public announcement that they would not reveal this persons name as they were a private person, but did reserve the right to publish if they behaved in the same way. thats the same as a threat / blackmail. You could mince words and say it depends how you take it, but it was blackmail. The trump and populist world is the world you are living in, not the world you would prefer to be living in like the rest of the democratic / green / commie party variants unfortunately. Thank you for your comments.
