Why CNN's downfall may be the most significant thing in the world right now

in #news7 years ago

CNN seems to finally be learning that the harder it struggles against the tar pit of public resentment that it has created for itself, the faster it will sink. Its pundits are not pushing back against the #CNNBlackmail fury with anywhere near the pompous intensity with which they fought Trump's wrestling tweet or the incriminating Project Veritas videos, instead opting to quietly move the news churn along in the hope that this will all go away in a few days.

It won't.

We're past critical mass now, and this is without a doubt the hottest that the media war has ever gotten. Never before have we seen such a widespread and concerted grassroots assault on the lies and manipulations of the deep state's propaganda machine. Never before has the unelected US power establishment's grip on public consciousness been this tenuous. This is a very exciting time to be alive.

I think the entire Reddit thing was a HUGE distration planned by CNN because they knew this story would get them more controversy points than the damage that was the Project Veritas videos. I totally think this entire story is made up and looking at both stories you can see how this network is true garbage. The reason they mentioned Reddit is because they want to discredit websites like Reddit, 4chan, Steemit and others who are out there without much censorship and saying what they dont want heard ehich is the truth, different political opinions and stories and the ability for people to do so anonymously. That is why they are stressing that they found his identity so quickly. They are trying to say "we are bigger and can crush you so don't challenge MSM!" Honestly and with all my heart I think this is a conpketely made up story to fostract from the Fake News about Russia-Trump and a statement against online news, information and comments. Facebook and Twitter are banning and blocking people and taking away their speech rights but they are private companies. They can do that. That is why it is more important than ever to have places like Steemit where you can post whatever you want, read what you want and if it isn't politically correct or it may offend people than so be it. But if we let Facebook tell us what we can say and CNN tell us what we can hear than we might as well just turn in our guns now and denounce God because onfe the 1st Amendment comes down the 2nd is soon to follow. Support Non-Fake News! Screw Google (YouTube), Facebook, Twitter and all Mainstream TV News Networks! Their day has come. The MEME War has only begun. Til the death!

Several excellent points, thanks for taking a look!
