CNN is trash......it's viewership has gone down to next to nothing.

It's nothing but a voice for the CIA/MIC

We are Germany of the 30's, the 40's are right around the corner

--It is so difficult to figure out what is what these days--

yep, need to consider 'author's purpose', which i wasn't taught but has been taught in u.s. public schools
for at least a couple decades now. maybe younger adults are less fooled by fakenews than old folks.

Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills, Grade 3:

"...Reading/Comprehension of Informational Text/Culture and History.
Students analyze, make inferences and draw conclusions about the author's purpose in cultural,
historical, and contemporary contexts and provide evidence from the text to support their
understanding. Students are expected to identify the topic and locate the author's stated purposes
in writing the text."

greenwald is believable, imo:

"...Politicians and activists should stop ratifying the fiction that Omar Mateen was motivated
by anti-LGBT hatred. It dishonors the victims and obscures the real motive.

On the fifth anniversary of the PULSE nightclub massacre in Orlando, numerous senators, politicians
and activist groups commemorated that tragic event by propagating an absolute falsehood: namely,
that the shooter, Omar Mateen, was motivated by anti-LGBT animus
. The evidence is definitive and
conclusive that this is false
— Mateen, like so many others who committed similar acts of
violence, was motivated by rage over President Obama's bombing campaigns in Syria, Iraq and
Afghanistan, and chose PULSE at random without even knowing it was a gay club — yet this
media-consecrated lie continues to fester...

In his first call with 911 while inside PULSE, this is what he said about why he was killing people:
Because you have to tell America to stop bombing Syria and Iraq. They are killing a lot of innocent people. What am I to do here when my people are getting killed over there. … You need to stop the U.S. airstrikes. They need to stop the U.S. airstrikes, OK? . … This went down, a lot of innocent women and children are getting killed in Syria and Iraq and Afghanistan, OK? … The airstrikes need to stop and stop collaborating with Russia. OK?
