    Is there something specific in this article that triggered your CNN comments? I didn’t actually read it but just curious.

      Weird way to phrase that…

      But just the type of “news” this is. Repeating something everyone knows is bullshit, but it’s what people want to hear so they’ll mindless spread it on social media

      If you’re not aware, CNN is more on the “entertainment” side of “entertainment news” these days.

      I don’t know how, but a lot of people seem to have already forgotten.

      That article is from two years ago when the sale happened, and CNN fired everyone that objected to the changes.

        I was genially curious with my question. Not trying to throw shade. I do not read much CNN articles these days.

        I guess this story being news worthy is debatable, but seems like it shouldn’t be posted in the political community.

          If he was really crying then maybe, but probably not even then.

          CNN could at least run a real headline:

          Alex Jones fake cries to grift money, and you’ll click the link if we pretend it’s real, so that’s what we’re doing now
