"The President has betrayed you,” said Don Lemon. “The President lied to you,” said Chris Cuomo.

This isn’t fact-based news coverage, and it’s not even opinion programming. It’s trying to tell the viewer how THEY should feel.

. @drsanjaygupta said a single anonymous “source” told him we "could have saved 80 to 90% of the people who died.”

Who is the source? Why does a single source get to make explosive comments anonymously? This fact-free, conjecture has no place on CNN: https://www.getdrip.com/broadcasts/985131936/493facc3286bbcfe90497

Too often hosts at CNN and elsewhere are riffing in monologues - but they are doing it fact-free. It’s not with compelling evidence. With well-researched arguments. They are appealing to feelings. It's condescending. And it's antithetical to journalism.

The media hates Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook - Bloomberg Businessweek puts him in a MAGA hat on the cover. It’s even more absurd since actually tech executives like one at Twitter are leaving the company to work for Biden: https://www.getdrip.com/broadcasts/985131936/493facc3286bbcfe90497
