Sorry, but a speculative report from anonymous sources about something that might happen might be news, but it ain't front page news. By comparison, slightly less rabid news outlets such as CBS, NBC and others would tend to agree, not giving it front page treatment.

Again, this was an item for comparison: to note how differently various news sources treat certain news items. What CNN is doing is obvious. Their bias is so over the top by any objective assessment.

Wapo, maybe less so, but their treatment of the Covington HS kids story was flawed, and it exposed a bias that I think is pretty obvious.

We can agree to disagree , but the evidence is certainly there.

Where Whell goes for his "objective" "news".

“We Are Terminating Our Relationship with Rush Limbaugh”: Satan

Oldie but goodie from Andy Borowitz. Don't worry, Whell, if you don't "get" it. It's way over your head...

I admit freely having trouble digging up any sympathy for clueless MAGA boy or his chaperones, who should have been more aware of the situation they abetted. It's not like his class was shot at school by an entitled armed nutjob.
