Read every word of this cover story on CNN this Sunday morning and tell me, is this “Our Most Trusted Name In News” reporting on events to us? Or is this what was once known as our news outlets now running cover for favored camps and coveted agenda and telling us what to think?

That was a rhetorical question. Outlets like CNN are functionally no different than Pravda now. It is such a dangerous transformation we have undergone when our 'news' networks are presenting OpEds as fact. 80% of pieces on outlets like CNN are opinion now, but few are tagged that. I don't care if we have networks blasting bullshit. Go for it! But stop packaging it as truth.
