yeah I like it, I hate CNN and the entire organization of frabricated news just to deal with an agenda, any agenda. Well, that's any news organization, but there's something about CNN and Anderson Cooper that I despise a lot, not going into details. I see it as a cool moment, like a jab.

"Trump shouted down CNN’s Jim Acosta as ‘fake news’ then took a question from Breitbart"

I don't even need to paste the article - that headline answers everything.

To be fair to Breitbart, a lot of their news is sourced from the AP, NYT, WaPo, they're practically a giant news aggregator with some exclusives and a robust opinion section on the side.

I even remember a lot of news on Breitbart about Breitbart itself being just snippets of what the NYT says about them, with a link to the relevant article.

Also of note: Unlike many alt-right news sources, they actually bother to check. I have had to swear off ZeroHedge and The Gateway Pundit for being crap with verifying and passing rumors and opinions as news



 
I WON A BET AGAINST AZUREN! WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Not cool at all. Especially coming from a guy that pays for Golden Showers in Russia. And to be blunt. fake news got Trump elected. Fake news ran rampant from Fox to MSNBC all 2016.

Just when some of my faith in humanity is about to be restored I see people praising someone for doing something despicable. The comparison with Erdogan is spot on.

Why am I even surprised at this point...

I'm not praising anybody, I'm saying this is cool, I like the moment not the person. I'm not even a republican. I'm tired of CNN, if this was other person or obama saying the same thing I would think the same.

Nah. If he said "I'm cool and you a fool". Then yes.

Also if at any point he said "top that" yes.

As of now? It is just a horrifying look at the future.

lol. 100% agree

Really? I actually like Anderson Cooper. I think he is the best thing at CNN right now... The only good thing at CNN. 
As for having an agenda, like said, its any news organization. Just look at Fox New. :V

On the upside, the poll and the majority of the posts seem to get that this is actually very bad.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Yes you are. If Obama punched a Fox news reporter and I made a thread saying "that was cool", because FOX news is trash, I would absolutely be praising him for his action and encouraging him to do it again. 

Trump is setting a terrible precident. I now see even more clearly what Meryl Streep was talking about when she said that journalists need to be protected.

and that's ok I respect your opinion, I think this could be a 50/50 situation. Some people love them for some reasons, some people hate them for some reasons.
