Tim Graham Goes Back and Shreds CNN's Coverage of Pence's RNC Speech Versus Harris' DNC Speech

There may be no more blatant violation of the concept of truth in advertising than CNN’s boastful claiming of the slogan “Facts First.” If facts were water and opinions were whiskey, CNN would concoct a very potent cocktail.
It’s easy to compare CNN’s very hostile coverage in the minutes after Vice President Mike Pence finished a Republican convention speech in front of a small crowd at Fort McHenry to CNN’s reaction to Democratic vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris’ speech the week before.
Jake Tapper thinks of himself as firmly fact-based, especially when rebutting Republican speeches.

Over video that showed President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump engaging with supporters, Tapper insisted Pence was “whitewashing” the Trump team’s coronavirus testing numbers.
Then he added: “Speaking of whitewashing, as I believe the vice president did to a large degree about their record when it comes to the coronavirus pandemic, again, the U.S., with less than 5 percent of the world’s population, has more than 20 percent of the world’s deaths.”

The “facts first” assumption at CNN is always that Trump and Pence “own” the American death toll. Meanwhile, Gov. Andrew Cuomo was in charge of the state with the highest death toll, and on CNN, he was celebrated with jokes about large Q-tip-type testing swabs from his brother, CNN host Chris Cuomo.
Jaundiced Jake didn’t break in after Gov. Cuomo “whitewashed” his record at the Democratic National Convention … because no one broke in at CNN.

The network ran the DNC videotape and tried not to say a word.
Tapper then assessed Pence on rioting: “Speaking of whitewashing, they talked about the violence in the streets, including in Kenosha, Vice President Pence did. There was no specific mention of the fact that the 17-year-old who has been accused of murdering two — we believe they were protestors — is, according to his social media accounts, a Trump supporter.”

This network would not suggest that the Bernie Sanders fan who tried to kill Republican congressmen on a baseball diamond in 2017 was somehow owned by Sanders. This … is CNN.
Now rewind a week to the minutes after Kamala Harris’ speech. Tapper offered no fact check of Harris.
He gushed: “I don’t think we can overstate how significant a moment it is for the girls and women and people of color in the United States and around the world watching this event tonight. What a historic moment for Kamala Harris. … It really is truly historic and one of these moments that is going to change people’s lives and inspire people because of the groundbreaking nature of that.”

And the speech itself?
“There was a lot of very progressive messaging going on there in terms of systemic racism and ideas like that,” he said.

Facts don’t come first. “Historic” racial and gender quotas accomplished by Democrats come first.
Tapper then put his promotional pedal to the metal in assessing former President Barack Obama’s speech earlier in the night.

“He’s well aware of how historic what he’s doing is,” Tapper said.
“[W]here he spoke this evening, the Museum of the American Revolution, which is a part of Philadelphia that is full of all sorts of colonial history and landmarks, that says to me that he knew that he was taking a stand for what our Founding Fathers back in 1776 were taking a stand for in his mind.”
For those of you who don’t freely associate Obama’s presidency with founding principles, put away your airsickness bag. This froth wasn’t aimed at you. It was for Obama and the Obama voters who make up CNN’s audience.


Their liberal satisfaction comes first, not the facts.

Re: Do you trust the media?

I am wondering if this CTN poll has a built in bias to it?

The poll overwhelmingly indicates that respondents do not trust the media.

President Trump has trained his followers to reject all unfavorable media coverage as fake news and only to believe what he says.

This is the same President who is documented to lie so much and so often that he would easily win an Olympic Gold medal for lying.

I am of the opinion that the majority of CTN respondents favored pre Trump Republican politics. Since the 2016 election most have lost faith in the Republican party due to the downward spiral that Trump has put the USA into.

Republicans didn't trust the media long before Trump was on the scene? Why? Because 99% of the media are run by liberals, for liberals. Every republican presidential candidate in my lifetime has been called a racist by democrats and it's been pushed by the media.

Either the media is full of shit or Trump is the smartest person on the planet because all the attempts by democrats to charge him with a crime has failed.

Did you buy into the media/democrat narrative that Trump was going to jail for colluding with Russia? And do you also buy into the media/dem narrative that the protests are peaceful? A simple yes or no will suffice. Thank you.

bet he has a higher IQ then you do.... 159 is pretty high.. close to the next level of genius.

what do you sit in the IQ range...

I'm right around 147-148 depends on when I was tested, out of HS 147... more recently 148.

Rich people rarely go to prison.
The actual protesters are peaceful, but there are people who like to use peaceful protests to create mayhem

There isn't any evidence that dumb donny has an IQ of 159. In fact the evidence points to a lower IQ. He has been bankrupt multiple times, he has serious trouble saying simple words etc...

Brilliant.

Do me a favor and tell Obama, Hillary, Biden and the rest of the dems that they need to come out and condemn the "mayhem". On second thought, lets call it what it is. White folk are being attacked for simply being white. Trump supporters are being targeted for their political beliefs. Cops are being attacked, not because they did anything wrong, but because they're cops - mainly white cops.

Moreover, these NOT protesters aren't being called out by dems and it's mostly happening in states/cities run by democrats. And the dem governors/mayors are allowing it happen and releasing the violent criminals almost as soon as they're booked in the jailhouse.

On the bright side, it appears Biden and his ilk are starting to come around after polls show that it's hurting them and helping Trump. Baby steps, I suppose.
