The network once known as the “most trusted name in news” started to lose public trust after its massive fake news about Iraq's alleged nuclear weapons, that actually never existed. This fake news cost the lives of thousands American soldiers (and countless Iraqis) and billions of dollars lost on a fake war against nothing. 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. The result of dividing USA is that the fanatical network has gone 21 days without averaging a 7-digit viewership.
The trust problem with the “mainstream” media is real, and it’s not only about CNN.
When we -the anti Trump and pro Biden- cannot rely on our favorite home-based news outlet, it is a problem.
CNN -just our other favorite news sources- became the mirror of FOX news. The other side of the same. They are on our side but what we need from news outlet is to tell us the true, not only what we want to hear.
We better admit the problem so we can fix it before losing it all.

J.O., the role of REAL news is not to keep everybody happy, but informed. Such an article is a wake up call. Not against CNN but for making CNN great again…

People over there at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28977156 are not happy about your article, and that's comprehensible, 90% of them still being Deep Asleep...
Happy Awakening, news.ycombinator.com crowd! It would be about time!!

This article is so biased. Blaming CNN for "fake news" for what the Republican government under George W. Bush and his military advisors provided all the "intel" about Iraq's "nuclear weapons". They were reporting what the Republican government lied about. Then goes on to talk about "biased news against whoever did not vote for Biden", sounds like blatant bias right here. Not even providing an example of what they are talking about. What's London Daily? The British version of Fox News?

With all the respect I disagree with all what you wrote.
CNN is clearly supporting “the establishment” (what the Americans often call “Deep State”).
Not “Democrats” and not “Republicans” but the system who really control America, above the constitution, above the president and obviously above the people.
The war industry, Wall Street, the banking system and the Big Tech (the Big Pharma just joined this club lately).
If you do not see that CNN pumping hate culture, cancel culture, biased news coverage, and massive propaganda, you probably do not really watch CNN.
Look, I do not support Trump, I am not even American, but I stoped watching CNN in hotels and on YouTube because I cannot stand the level of hate, poison and toxic coverage against Trump, against Republicans, against at list half of the American people.
America is broken, divided, full of hate. It’s not only CNN fault, but in what I see, CNN is a major player in the hate industry. We live in a time where it is not enough to read the NYT or watch CNN to get informed. You must diversify your source of news to be less disinfomed and less misinformed.
It’s sad because I used to love watching CNN and reading the NYT and the Washington Post. I do not trust them anymore, for good reasons, and from what I read here I am happy that I am not alone.
