  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Does CNN still claim to be UNBIASED?

NEW YORK CITY, New York -- A CNN executive declared that CNN is unbiased--indeed, uniquely so.
Jon Klein, the president of U.S. operations of the Cable News Network, made the assertion to advertisers in a sales meeting on Tuesday, presumably hoping to use the outlandish statement to distract attention from the network's 42% drop in viewership in the last year. Klein said CNN is in a "category of one" in the way it delivers "non-biased news."

I find it incredibly difficult and even hilariously laughable for CNN to claim they are "unbiased".
Has anyone watched lately?
Anderson Cooper does not like Trump, nor do most the other reporters.
They're very verbal about it.
That is not "UNBIASED"

Maybe I'm missing something though.. Is there a definition to the word "unbiased" that I'm missing?
:scratch: Really?

Did you miss the memo that "unbiased" is, by definition, progressive/liberal?

That's a nice declaration, but where is your evidence that AC has been any harder on Trump than on any other candidate? Did you see his soft-ball interview with Melania?
