 Facts first this is CNN's new tagline Now I think that a more accurate tagline would be profits first because CNN is a corporation their goal is to Do news in a way that attracts eyeballs to televisions because that attracts advertisers So really you know being a news delivery resource is the secondary goal Their number one goal is profits in spite of what they say so often times This leads to bias because there's this conflict of interest and Bernie Sanders recently called out the bias in corporate media and CNN absolutely did not like what he had to say about corporate media and they said very bluntly look if you're gonna call us out Where's the evidence? I was a little surprised Kirsten to hear Sanders say it himself But it's not new to see his campaign really taking on the media without providing any evidence of bias I think that you should be very careful about the accusations you make and you better be able to back them up Well, Bernie Sanders was not there to defend himself, but allow me to do that So I actually do have evidence in fact I have a sadly hilarious example of CNN's bias Getting in the way so CNN politics tweeted fact check Bernie Sanders is once again saying the US spends twice as much on health care per capita as any other country in the world It's a claim. He has been making since at least 2009 when political fact noted that it was false It's still false now and when you go to the article they claim again that he's been making the same false claim for 10 years Now here's why they say they rated this claim false Facts first, it's still false now The US does spend the highest amount on health care per capita of any Organization for economic cooperation and development country, but not double every single one So the issue isn't necessarily that he was lying the issue was that he wasn't being specific enough because even if we spend Double many countries when it comes to health care spending. We just don't spend double every single country So the word every is really what's at issue here It's a little bit misleading and here's how they say he could have been more correct Sanders could have accurately said the US spends more than twice the average for OECD countries Which was an estimated 3992 in 2018 and a firmer 3854 in 2017 so this is almost indistinguishable from his original claim So what they're doing here is they're being overly nitpicky because they want to make Bernie Sanders look bad This is what I'd like to call nuanced trolling you pick out the details So that way if somebody doesn't word something very specifically Then you are able to attack them for it, right? And there are some instances where details absolutely matter very specific things can be an issue But what he was saying here Was that an issue? No, and what I love is that Bernie Sanders actually responded to this and it's in the actual article And he says actually we were referring to the average for OECD countries and noted that this was confirmed by CNN who in January of this year published an article with the headline US spends twice as much on health care as its peers Congratulations you played yourself, but wait a minute I thought that you said the United States doesn't spend twice as much as all of its peers Underline all that's a little bit misleading and furthermore if we want to be more technical really, you know It spends twice the average of OECD countries, so I mean what happened is CNN gonna rate that headline false. I Mean this is a joke. What a hilarious self-own What they did was they tried to nuance troll in order to discredit Bernie Sanders And they only ended up inadvertently discrediting themselves because they just demonstrated to us that they don't actually care about facts They have an agenda and they were banking on the fact that most people will only read the headline They're not gonna go any further than that So they're trying to make it seem like Bernie Sanders is lying when he's not and if we're being extra charitable here They could have rated the statement from Bernie Sanders partially true, right? But instead they just deemed the entire statement false when what he said Was basically echoed in the CNN article and Bernie Sanders pointed that out. It's in the fact check. I Mean this is just so embarrassing So if CNN ever wonders Why we think they're biased against Bernie Sanders and why they jumped through hoops to discredit him at any chance they get It's things like this that contribute to that narrative So if you're not biased against Bernie Sanders prove me wrong Don't do things like this When you go out of your way to nuance troll in order to make him look bad in order to make it seem like he's lying Because by doing that by banking on the fact that most people will only read the headline You're actually spreading misinformation because we do spend double our peers So if you want him to be more specific then say you want him to be more specific and that his statements It is only partially true, but they didn't do that they wanted to make him look bad and now they were caught and They complain whenever we call it their bias Unbelievable CNN is garbage and this is why everyone hates CNN and nobody takes them seriously. It's because of things like this This isn't the only time they have revealed their bias. I mean, this is a corporate news Outlet so they don't care about the delivery of news. They don't care about facts They care about profits and they know that Bernie Sanders threatens the profits of their advertisers Which is bad for business hence why they hate him hence why they do things like this You just have to put two into together.
