Has cnn been purchased by Murdock?

or some other right winger?

cnn is running cover for trump's lies and bs, smile attacking Biden for a truthful statement.

He retweets over and over that corvid concerns are a dem hoax. He as much as says it outright here:
"One of my people came up to me and said, "Mr. President, they tried to beat you on Russia, Russia, Russia. That didn't work out too well. They couldn't do it. They tried the impeachment hoax. That was on a perfect conversation. They tried anything. They tried it over and over. They'd been doing it since you got in." It's all turning. They lost. It's all turning. Think of it. Think of it. And this is their new hoax.'"

But cnn headline for today is,
Fact check: Biden ad misleadingly suggests Trump called Covid-19 a 'hoax'

I doubt it.

Besides, it's extremely difficult to out dumb Fox......it took over twenty years for anyone to even attempt it but the idiot in chief does watch OANN now and then but seems to favor Fox. So that in itself disputes the notion that CNN would try this.

Fact check: Biden ad misleadingly suggests Trump called Covid-19 a 'hoax'

Yeah, I found that pissy as well as misleading in itself. Sure the video may have altered the exact quote, but it didn't alter what was said nor in what context.

"Facts First: This is a misleading attempt to suggest that Trump specifically called the coronavirus a hoax. While Trump's comments were a bit confusing, Biden's ad leaves out important context and dishonestly edits the two soundbites together."

Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit

I guess it's just more of the "new fairness doctrine". If one side says something obviously insane about something and the other side says something truthful, then then all have to give equal time to the insanity. Except for fox and which runs about 95% insane and the brietbarts etc who are 100% wingnut.

I googled "biden deceptive ad" and everybody had piled on bad boy Joe. Washington Post, NYT, Wall Street Journal and then all the far righties were there too.

Well, trump DID call it a hoax; he's on video saying exactly that. He also called the Russia election meddling a hoax and his impeachment trial a hoax. He is a true hoaxter who somehow manages to convince the gullible and ill informed that it's all a hoax. Those poor bastards will likely never realize they've been played by someone who is the biggest hoax ever. The only surprise is how many have been taken in.
