<< CNN is 90% opinion. >> I can't believe that you are so uninformed. There are two CNN news services, CNN and CNN Headline News. CNN has many opinion or interview shows. But, straight news broadcasts are significantly greater than the 10% you say. And, Headline News has very little opinion or interview shows. But, even during interviews, what you are getting is many different opinions. Interviewing different people's views is another way of presenting the news. You probably only want "your" narrow opinion presented. I am beginning to understand you. << The problem with that is opinions come from people with certain pre-formed views. >> There is so much variety in CNN reporters that you get all exposed to many different and conflicting "pre-formed" types of views. But, when it comes to the reporting of the news, itself, it is basically unbiased. Most of the time several different points of view are presented. That Serbian jerk, who spews out Slob Milosevic's lies, is on many, many CNN broadcasts. What type of a view do you want? What would you do to change CNN, hire only uninformed, seemingly easily duped people, like yourself.
