Remember when CNN would at least pretend to report actual news. (They probably still do when something happens.) Plane crashes, what-have-you, they'd report on it.
Even "election" nights have people who usually sit through faux "thoughts and reactions" heading to CNN for actual updates with that King guy & his "big board" or whatever it is.
THE issue is: Faux isn't "news", and never was. It ushered in the "Opinio-tainment" & book-hawking concept, and that's all the non "leftists" were LEFT with.
What else did CableKing O'reilly do besides hawk books & spew his literal "Talking Points" regarding the mandated Topic Of The Month?
Yep, his Talking Points – talk about shoving it IN YOUR FACE!
