Why not? CNN is complete propaganda without any actual news. I really dont understand how intelligent people can watch it.
As an outsider who has dabbled in American television, this is true for all of American television. It’s incredible how even those who don’t think they’re brainwashed are brainwashed.
It's true for print and news apps as well. There are zero English language sources of real journalism.

That agree/disagree seems to be missing an opportunity, because you don't know what the disagrees think it should be instead - despite collecting that data when you click disagree. So it could be that people actually think they're more in the middle or even right than further left. Unless I'm missing something? Also seems to be extremely easy to game at first glance.
I see what you mean. When you vote, it follows up asking the user to also specify the correct button on the spectrum. But, your observation is correct, we don't know whether people disagree on it being left or center. This one is easy though :-).
I just noticed that and edited my comment before noticing your reply. It seems really odd that they don't show that distribution, it seems to be by far the most interesting data they're collecting there.

https://www.allsides.com/media-bias/media-bias-ratings CNN is especially eggregious. NYTimes should also be on the left column which is reflected in the votes "Somewhat disagree" with the current characterization as Center-Left (scroll down). Edit: I am just pointing out a free publicly available dataset of what the population thinks of the media. Make what you will, don't shoot me.
There is nothing necessarily wrong with bias toward a specific side, unless you make the flawed assumption that the truth must be in the center.

#45CNN is no good. Journalists describing Joe Rogan taking horse dewormer when he had a prescription for Ivermectin is indefensible.
I really liked his commentary on CNN calling themselves “mainstream” as opposed to supposed fringe podcasters when he has easily 10x the viewership of any program on CNN - really CNN just makes themselves more fringe by lying about ivermectin

#46Who on HN is upvoting this kind of garbage article? > CNN continues to lose trust for its biased news against whoever did not vote for Biden, and its promotion of an extremist hate-culture against "the other" 84 million American voters. ... what?? This trash doesn't belong here.
What about that statement is confusing?
Shortened it is saying: "CNN is promoting an extremist hate culture towards people who voted for somebody other than Joe Biden".
That seems accurate if you spend any time watching their programming.

The entire corporate media blatantly ignoring that we've been safely giving Ivermectin to humans for decades is a total disgrace.

#48The worst part of air travel for our family is CNN on every screen. The children were scared seeing all the disasters in remote areas, the non-stop crises and arguments. WTF airports.
If that's the worst part of air travel for you, you should count your blessings.

100% true. The experimental gene therapy test subjects are the best recent example.

Right! If they must have TVs on, switch to travel programming, which would actually make sense in context.
