I'm not saying it's propaganda. To me it's equivalent to hearing a quack and expecting a duck. I read a negative article about EVs and expect it may be a conservative-leaning source.
I think there was some lean in CNN and definitely in NPR. NPR does some great stuff but on certain subjects you know what their angle will be. CNN isn't going to be as left-leaning any more now that John Malone is in charge. YMMV I just know what my experience and view is, yours may differ.
@dan1101
Who is #JohnMalone? I would haven given #CNN another shot but they made the disastrous choice of having #KaitlanCollins interview #Trump for a town hall, and on top of that giving her her own show, and she's probably the worst personality they've had on the network since #JimAcosta.
John Malone, media billionaire who may be the largest landowner in the USA. He donated $250,000 to Trump and says outlets like Fox are important because otherwise everything is leftist. So it is is reasonable to speculate the direction he wants to take CNN to balance things out more.
