Wow, democrats are really showing their colors today with this whole "boycott the CNN" thing... Unless I missed soemthing he is a presidential candidate, and one who so far hasnt been found guilty of anything that would disqualify him... and a popular one.

Yes he is a piece of shit, and yes he has no business being in politics... But its not CNNs job to make those decisions. Their job is to let the candidates say their piece and let the public decide from there (or the courts if there are legal questions).

As much as I hate Trump... I lost **so** much respect for the democrats today. Supporting censorship, specifically doing so with the intent of winning an election in their favor, is a new low... dont be that party...

@freemo A very bad take. CNN chose to give him a platform to lie and slander without pushback or fact checking. This is not reporting the news, it's making entertainment by promoting a white supremacy.

@deegeese In townhalls they dont "pushback" or fact check... never have as far as I know.. the format is always typically Q&A without much interference fromt he host.

And yea, an unbias news agency has a moral (and arguably a legal one) to host the front-running political candidates equally. As for white supremacy, would you be ok with them blocking any coverage of Biden ont he basis of his pro-segregation stance in politics? Or would you scream foul if they intentionally black balled him for his extremely racist career?

@freemo You're conflating blacklisting a candidate with choosing to give them a platform to promote their views. Surely you can see the difference?

@deegeese Ok let me rephrase.. would you be ok with them choosing not to give biden a platform by refusing to host him in debates and town halls?
