Original Article

CNN, a far-left propaganda outlet that spreads conspiracy theories and violence, hit an all-time weekend ratings low. The New York Post: Ratings-challenged CNN hit rock bottom in a key viewership demographic last weekend — another sign of the difficulties facing incoming boss Mark Thompson. The cable news network logged its worst weekend ratings on record in the all-important 25- to 54-year-old demo, according to the latest Nielsen data released Tuesday. CNN — which launched in 1980 and bills itself as “the most trusted name in news” — totaled just 55,000 viewers for its weekend slate of shows that include Sunday political programs

55K total? Has the American public finally had enough of the high inflation, high gas prices, raising consumer prices, the influx of illegal and criminal aliens, crime out of control while all our enemies show strength while we show weakness and meanwhile CNN and the rest cheerleading press give the criminal burden a pass. CNN - who are you going to believe us or your lying eyes?

2, that's not true. 54k of the 55k were stuck in airports. The other 1k were people's dogs at home while they were at work.

I remember watching the fledgling CNN under Ted Turner's leadership when they first started (1980) and it was amazing to watch compared to the "big three" broadcast news shows. To watch live, 24x7, around the world news stories delivered off-the-cuff by real news reporters was almost addictive. I remember being home for lunch during college watching CNN with the feed from Egypt right after the assassination of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat. I saw one of the victims of the attack in the stands raise up his arm, which was severed at the elbow and blood and body parts were everywhere. This was broadcast with no censors back then and it was shocking to see that carnage. Turner grew CNN into a news powerhouse, but then, all of a sudden, it got top heavy, and eventually sold off to the corporate crusher, where MBAs whittle any good thing down, based on the "quarterly numbers." CNN is now unwatchable and untrustworthy... basically worthless. At the rate they're going, within a year, this propaganda organ of the Democrat Party won't be worth much more than the current value of "Project Veritas."

CNN does not care about ratings. It is 'bundled' with hundreds of other channels so is available to millions of viewers. CNN would only care of their advertisers dropped out. WE have it through SPECTRUM and I have not watched that channel for over a decade, not for one minute. In fact I do not even know what channel # it is on in our area.

My scientific calculator could barely produce a percentage that low. I'm surprised that the Commie News Network can find enough money to keep the lights turned on. Any day now they will be forced to recruit volunteers to stand on sidewalks spinning signs with their version of the news written with Hi-lighters.

I remember when the family first got cable back in 1982. Prior to that we only had ABC, NBC and PBS. As kids my brothers and sister and I didn't care as we as I'm sure many kids at the time could play all day long away from the house with no trouble. I first watched the new 24/7 news channel called CNN and was fascinated as TV stopped at midnight with the Star-Spangled Banner and an end to the regular broadcast day. Coming back on at 5am.I remember being active-duty Navy stationed at Pearl Harbor watching both the channel and ESPN for news and sports late night coming off QD watches. I also remember their top notched war coverage of the 1990 Gulf War with the pictures of GHWB, and Generals Powell and Schwarzkopf. The channel started going to pot when our first Black president Bill Clinton and his PIAPS Hillary came to DC. Especially during the Monica Lewinsky scandal/Impeachment. The vilification of Ken Starr for one was hard to watch. I stopped watching after GWB became my Commander-in-Chief. This once great news network has become the Commie News Network. Instead of James Earl Jones bellowing "This Is CNN!" they've gone to Beavis and Butthead laughing "CNN Sucks!"

There is but one front in which the Ukrainian counteroffensive is being very successful: in the mainstream media. There, the complete failure of the counteroffensive is but a minor inconvenience as they chronicle every minor skirmish as a triumph for Kiev, and every successful missile attack as ‘the beginning of the end’ for Moscow. The reality is that there is a war of positional battles going on, a situation in which the Russian war of attrition will always be victorious, as they have more guns, tanks, ammo, manpower. In the last few days, the Russians have continued depleting the Ukrainian infrastructure in ways that will turn the inter into a bitter experience, and

President Joe Biden slipped and almost fell coming down the small stair case from Air Force One on Tuesday, just after it was revealed he is doing balancing exercises, wearing sneakers and using the shorter stairs in an effort to avoid any stumbles. The president used the lower stairs of Air Force One as he exited the presidential plane in Michigan to meet with striking auto workers. Close to the bottom, his heel slipped but he caught himself before he fell. He also appeared to be wearing hiking boots or work boots of some kind, which would be sturdier for his feet than dress shoes.

As the astute and eloquent Tucker Carlson once said, “The most boring word in journalism is “I”.” He’s not wrong and “me” is a close second. However, the story of the Kiski School, one of the oldest boys preparatory schools in the country, going co-ed after 135 years accidentally became extremely important to me. The narrative surrounding this school should matter to every parent, as it’s happening in nearly every school across America. My husband, Craig Spitzer is a 1983 graduate of the school who attributes much of his success to the structure, foundation and support provided by the all-boys education at Kiski.

On Tuesday, President Joe Biden visited members of the United Auto Workers (UAW) who are striking against General Motors (GM), Ford, and Stellantis. The president, though, failed to make mention his Electric Vehicle (EV) mandates which are partly responsible for the strike. Tens of thousands of auto workers are striking against the Big Three across the United States, looking to secure a new labor contract that includes wage increases to keep up with Biden’s record inflation and commitments that their jobs will not be eliminated by Biden’s green energy agenda which includes EV mandates. During his 12-minute visit with UAW members in Wayne County, Michigan, Biden spoke for only 87 seconds and

Pennsylvania Democratic Sen.

Concerns about Fetterman’s health arose during his 2022 senatorial campaign after he suffered a stroke; following the event, his doctor said he could “work full duty,” and Fetterman himself said he was “able to serve and to be running” for Congress.

America has been in a veritable cultural revolution since the 1960s. Nearly all our major institutions finally became woke—the administrative state, traditional and social media, universities, K-12, the corporate boardroom, entertainment, professional sports, and the foundations. So the Obama and the Biden administrations finally seemed to have achieved their aims, in what the Obamas once boasted would be the “fundamental transformation” of America into something unrecognizable by its Founders. But what they gave us was nihilism—the destruction of norms, laws, and customs. There is no border, no criminal justice system, no real president any more.

The America-Last Biden administration is reportedly allowing hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants to request flights over the southern border and directly into the United States. The Biden administration has been trying to hide the true scope of the illegal alien invasion of our country through the CBP (Customs and Border Protection) One program. As I previously explained, hundreds of thousands of migrants every year can apply for a pseudo-legitimization through the CBP One app, meaning that the Biden administration was claiming a reduction in illegal crossings by the simple expedient of labeling many thousands of barely-vetted illegals legitimate. But that’s not the only disturbing aspect of the CBP One program.
