Reply to comment by Octopugilist in CNN ‘deeply regrets’ distress caused by report on Thailand nursery killings by darthatheos

idk man fox is pretty surreal. CNN doesn't claim it's not a news agency and that their hosts are entertainers

MSNBC does. CNN probably would if an anchor got sued.

It helps when you don't broadly mischaracterize the case as the person you replied to does. Fox claimed that Carlson wasn't their news anchor but an opinion/entertainment feature. Something nobody with a brain disagrees with. CNN does have those folks too, Chris Coumo was one.

They didn't claim they werent a news station as the Fox news desk is a thing. Fox news desk has the same level of factualness as CNN and slightly higher than MSNBC (they're all in the C grade) with an equal bias to both.

No, but they're getting there. Both need to be purged from this god forsaken world.
