CNN lies, misleads (11/15/07 Democratic debate edition)

What terrorist entered the country from the Mexican border?

[zuravinblaine]

This is a very choppy video. The guy stating terrorists have not come from Mexico is correct. This video was posted before two failed terror attacks on the US and both were entering, or already in, the country legally. I think you might just have to accept the fact that smart people with computers and TV's and the ability to absorb current events in real time have left leaning points of view, whereas the people recieving carrier pigeon notes from FNC are....idiots.

[Castropher]

Who video poster, you just totally contradicted yourself.

You said this guy lied for saying "no terrorist come from the southern border". Then you say "no one knows how many[illegals] could be terrorist"

There you go, no one knows how many of them "could" be terrorist...in fact for all we know, none of them "could" be terrorist or all of them "could" be terrorist.

So if it is not based off a fact, then it "could" be an opinion and "could" statements are not factual evidence

[juggalonklown]

The "no terrorist has come from our southern border" could and probably actually meant that Hispanics aren't coming up to commit terrorist acts. I highly doubt he's talking about terrorist from other nations using the Mexico-US border.

wow..kinda creapy cuz i just met that george guy today..he's from douglas az wher i met him..he very smart BUT i guess a liar..???lol

[Spikey206]

Personally, I don't like *any* media outlet. They're all screwed up in some way.

However, for the record, you're implications are just as bad as theirs. You make unfounded statements as well in an attempt to prove your point, a tactic all media outlets are known for.

Oh, and as far as the "pre-approved question", for which you say "CNN lied to millions of people", there is absolutely no electrical collar around that man when he speaks. It's simple to change wording when asking.

You're a moron

[Castropher]

Thank you, someone who actually thinks for themselves

[massivetuber]

CNN lies, ppl die.

[Soupdragoon]

This is horse shit! You try to prove a point with unfounded facts and speculation. While the Bush admin is corrupt and behind things like 9/11 and ENRON you look stupid by focusing on the wrong issues. You make up facts to prove a non-sensical point. Look you should join the anti establishment movement but get your facts straight first. You are looking in the wrong places to prove they are corrupt. This is nothing but a waste of time.

[colala2]

CNN lies, i am not going to watch CNN anymore

[Castropher]

You stupid sheep, you have been lied to about CNN lying. This video proves nothing at all, he gave no evidence of his accusations and CNN cannot control what their interviewees are going to say. When it comes from a CNN commentator, then you can spew your lie nonsense.

[starlionblue]

@colala2 Notice that the same idiots who watch this crap always ALWAYS call the critics "Fox News supporters." Says everything about how ridiculous their lies are. They can't even tell a half-baked lie!

[cnnlies]

Hit them where it hurts...sponsers...boycott,wri­te letters....be pro actve...great post!

[playerhater99]

CNN is horrifically bad. They are the most liberal left winged News station I have ever seen. Ever since Fox news channel started up everyone has switched over because its not biased news. CNN doesn't talk news. It's anti-American liberal bullshit. I watched a CNN segment that talked about Bush going to start World War 3. Blaming Bush for all kinds of stuff that didn't even happen. It was ridiculous, people like this ruin this country.

[nado2s]

But left unchecked, Bush probably would have started World War 3.

[toejam119]

So people who start wars (Iraq, Afghanistan) that have cost the American people little below one trillion dollars and have taken the lives of 754 000 people (including US soldiers), even when not one single country attacked your country, are not ruining your country?

You should watch "Outfoxed" document if you think Fox isn't biased.

If this is the best they can come up with CNN's "lies" then you haven't seen anything when it comes to what Fox spews out of its far right fear mongering mouth.

[thelousyllama]

where r ur sources from?

[luckyvet]

CNN is owned and controlled by the same elites who own the federal reserve, along with 95% of the media.

These men at the top profit from 3 things:

- dumbed down populations

- war

- socialism

This is your answer.

Ron Paul 2008 - the only man who will change the system.

[bluebettle]

...and the American Dental Association controls all the money in the world in a small bunker underground!

Wake up sheeple! If you disagree with our insane, paranoid rhetoric then it means that you are being brainwashed! Ignore the fact that we're using Marx's concept of False Consciousness as a rational for supporting a presidential nominee who believes in an individualist philosophy. It's not contradictory at all!

[lordchaos888]

The Council on Foreign Relations controls the US Media, including most Internet News. The Council on Foreign Relations controlls the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial Branches of our Government. While they try to divide you into 3 camps: Left, Right and Libertarian; the truth is, the Council on Foreign Relations is your enemy. I propose a mass rally outside of Harold Pratt House, in NY.

The audacity of the mass media.

[Basketball80]

I wish they would come up with a different format for the debates. Maybe take the questions and give each candidate around 15min. to answer them individually then for the last half hour or so open the floor so we could have a REAL debate.

or just televise on one of the C-Span channels and give the Candidates the time they need to answer questions and debate in a way that would be beneficial instead of just a side show.

[Basketball80]

I've read over the links and there's nothing misleading about what Barack said. Given the time restraints the Candidates have on their answers it doesn't allow them to explain fully.

[NoMoreBlatherDotCom]

Basketball80: BHO sold "reform" as a panacea, without noting that after "reform" there would be plenty of illegal aliens. That would include those who weren't covered by "reform", as well as newly-arrived IAs who came to be part of Obama's "reform". He also offered "reform" as a panacea to concerns about lowered wages for low-wage workers, when in fact "reform" would make that worse (increased legal competition + new illegal aliens brought in to replace those who were legalized.)

[ALIPAC1]

Very nice job. Thank you for the research and the video.
