From: Robert F.
yes cnn and a few other stations are mostly fake news. My favorite news channel was CNN. Real news is the kind that is unbiased and is the kind we as a population can trust to watch and stay on top of what is happening in the world.... Not bickering for ratings with your rival like Fox news. Fox is my favorite channel of trust worthy news. Just look at ratings and people like real news. The day CNN starts to broadcast real news will be the day I start watching again.

I applaud Sinclair. Its about time journalists report facts not sensationalize to get viewers.
90% of media reports have been negative of President Trump since inauguration (Harvard stats) Ridiculous liberal slander not journalism.
Still waiting on RUSSIA probe which for months the liberal media tried implicated President Trump/ son/ son in law. NO FACTS JUST INNUENDO
Way more Americans love President Trump than any news outlet leads you to believe. Hense the 2017 Presidential race win and im certain 2020

Subject: If you don’t see the anchor bias at play, then I must be watching a different CNN channel than you
From: KL <[email protected]>
A news story followed by a snarky comment to the co-anchor, a chortle, a shake of the head, a sarcastic personal opinion, etc., these are examples of anchor bias, and is what gives credibility to Trump’s “fake news” statements. How about just delivering the news with a straight face, and letting the viewers form their own thoughts? That would be a novel approach!
Just because CNN anchors and their entire group of panelists (whom typically beat the same drum and rarely offer an opposing view) don’t seem to like the tax cuts, it doesn’t mean that a vast number of Americans are in agreement with CNN. Tax cuts in and of themselves do not create a doomsday scenario —- if it doesn’t work out or in the future we need more money, then increase taxes at that time!!!!! Hey, now there is something to talk about —- dynamic government! But doomsday seems tell sell more tickets.
Trump requests $18 billion for a wall that many, including the Border Patrol, feel will either outright deter or “slow the rate of flow” (i.e., giving the Border Patrol more time to react) of unauthorized border crossings. Granted, the wall does not represent a great American symbol, but when Mexico doesn’t care to help, America has to do something.
It is well documented that unauthorized border crossings is not just about illegal immigrants or Mexicans, but rather it is also about the US economy, drug trafficking and national defense —— each of these are major issues on their own, and together the issues are huuuuuge. With all the spending waste in Washington, how about we waste some on the wall and see what happens.
Lastly, rational people understand that the prevention of unauthorized border crossings, drug trafficking, and terrorism is like a game of whack-a-mole —- we know they will try to find another way because the prize is too great, so how about we build the wall (obviously incorporating technology within the wall “system”) and then see where we need to focus next.
But I am sure this will never get reported.
Subject: Facts are starting to make me realize.
From: timhines60.th <[email protected]>
One thing that I have noticed over the last 2 years is that. Trump is exactly correct when he refers to many news stations as Fake News.
It is becoming even more obvious. Here is what is starting to be clear to Americans when it comes to the Liberal news.
- They don’t like President Trump communicating with the American people.
WHY? Because it interferes with THEIR propaganda against him.
- They don’t care about lives.
IF they did. They wouldn’t be spreading HATE. Ironic that the Liberals say that we should be TOLERANT of others. Yet they are not TOLERANT of President Trump.
- They are not TOLERANT of any person. Unless they agree with them. HYPOCRITES!
- The hate that the Fake News is spreading is KILLING police officers, kids in school, soldiers etc.
OPEN YOUR EYES.
- Americans see a Prsident that wants what is best for the American people!

It all comes down to who’s not getting there pockets lined as thick.
All these people bitched and moaned because nothing was getting done before Trump was in office. Well now he is in office, he’s getting things done, things are picking up and everyone is still bitching. All because it’s Trump.
Where the hell would have been if Hillary was in.

From: Thomas A.
To: Diana Moskovitz
I wonder, Diana, what gives you the remarkable insight and knowledge to absolutely know that Kobe was guilty of rape. What gives you the absolute knowledge to know that the woman was telling the truth?
I , myself, have a very strong opinion that men who use position and power to gain sexual favor ... CERTAINLY including rape ... should be chastized and prosecuted to maximum legal allowance and provision.
But I also must keep an open mind to the fact that some number of women will lie and cheat in these cases and claims, either for monetary gain or , perhaps, even their own sexual satisfaction or proclivity.
To this day, there is no complete proof or resolution in the Kobe case. Your personal assumptions do nothing to advance the cause you try to support and advance.

Your’re article on Kobe and his Oscar was the most pathetic thing I have ever read. Are you fucking serious? I think the self entitlement has gone to your empty head. I have no idea how someone can write cheap like that and still have a job as a “journalist” even if it is for the internet. I also don’t know how you can insinuate that there is some girl out there that has been hurt by Bryant and just hasn’t said anything.
Are you stupid? You said yourself that he hasn’t even been accused of anything like that since, and last time I checked women were coming out of the woodwork accusing every single guy in Hollywood of sexual harassment or assault so give me a break.
Your whole worthless story is a joke. You basically said he doesn’t deserve an Oscar because of a 15 year old case that he was found not guilty in. You have to be the dumbest writer on the entire internet.
I think rapists should go to prison for life and no one should be sexually harassed or mistreated in that way but this is pathetic. It’s not like women have ever been known to lie and it wouldn’t surprise me if there’s been a lot of false accusations since this all started.
Your editor should fire you for your slandarizing and bullshit story. Then you can say it’s because your a female and go grab a picket sign and march down the street in protest with because that’s how fucking stupid you are. Get a real job bitch

The idiocy level from the sports media over Colin Kaepernick is unbelievable. Manuel called a presser, scouts showed up, he is actively seeking to join a team. Your boy Kap has not talked or called anyone in NFL about intent to join a team, or whether he is willing to be a QB only, and not a social justice warrior. In your mind he should be that SJW first then, if he can find the time and strength, lead a team of Alpha Males to a playoff/Super Bowl run. Because what team wouldn’t be seeking that scenario? Try all of them. Your incessant whining for Kap is rooted in your politics/non sports related ambitions. The Football decision will be to stay a million miles from a guy that is so distracted from his purpose on your billion dollar team. You are a pandering idiot who will never get it. If Kap called around league privately, toned down his SJ W sideshow crap, gave the inkling he wants to play at a high level without being a distraction, scouts would start showing up.
You actually get paid as an sports analyst and you can’t figure this out? Crying for Kap doesn’t help his chances either, both he and the mamby-pamby liberal sportswriters have learned nothing, this is a business, not a political platform. The only thing between the lines of a football team is to play football at a high level and to entertain the American public that consumes your product. Hate to put it this way but shit your pie-holes with all the other crap, it’s annoying. Also it’s a one-sided hatred spewed by people with Kaos best interest ato heart. Poor kid was ledoing astray by a conniving girlfriend with an agenda. He seems to have lost his way just to get laid, hopefully he can recovet.

Your article was a piece of crap—-a pure hit piece. Whoever told you Coah K was a bigot? (I know you saved the ignominy of using the term all libs and MSM love to use). They got it all wrong. Perhaps your brother or your father was denied a basketball scholarship to Duke. I say that because the article is personal for you. The attack is ad hominem and sadly unsupported. He gave up several specific ways he thinks things should change. He gave up three times more than Self. The NCAA is ‘THEM’ and he is not a part of that. If you could have, just ask Joe Paterno? He was ‘The NCAA’right? The story (using the term advisedly) was pitiful and unsubstantiated point. He was one off the kings of college football and the NCAA shoved it up his behind. What a juvenile piece! The story (using the term advisedly) was pitiful and had an unsubstantiated plot. Come on, tell us which one of your friends or relatives was snubbed by Coach K. Or perhaps you were? Otherwise, you are definitely playing ‘dumb’.

Please refrain from using vulgar language in your articles.

If you are unsure as to what term I am referring to then my point is to totally lost on you. However I’m sure if your parents were to read some of your work and read this article in particular they would have resorted scolded you just as I am. Having read this article I could surmise that you are not so old that you shouldn’t have your mouth washed out with soap.

From: William H.
To: Lauren Theisen
It sure takes you a long time to say very little. In a “city” the size of MSU (42-45,000) full of over-hormoned teenagers, are the sexual assault statistics out of whack? I don’t know. (And remember, “assault” is defined as any unwanted touching, not just rape.) If D’Antonio, for example, has been on the job 10 years, are 1.6 incidents of inappropriate behavior per year all that unusual?
Keep in mind that of all of Nassar’s 225+ victims, only two went to the police. One had her claim investigated and Nassar was believed over her, while the complaint of the other led to this massive investigation and his prosecution and conviction. It seems as if there would have been far fewer victims if the other women had felt that their treatment by Nassar was abusive to the point that THE POLICE should have been notified. That’s what they are there for. In other words, those who failed to go to the police about this pervert to some extent acted as his enablers. I think that their realization that they could have/should have done more drives at least part of their anger.
As to the rest of your article, well, big surprise. When I was active in my graduate school’s alumni association, I recall meeting with representatives of the university alumni association. They said that our job was to “lather up” the alums so that the main association could “shave” them, i.e., relieve them of their money.
