The measure of intelligence isn't "do they always agree with Always Right Rob.

Here we go again, when have I ever said Trump should be able do whatever they want with no regard for the law? Hint - the answer is never.

If you're upset that the left is holding Trump and Admin to the law, and trying to prevent him from violating it, then by default you are in support of Trump & Admin doing what they choose with no regard for law.

You have complained MANY times about the left trying to hold him to the law.

JESUS Christ... Seriously Rob? Morality, Ethics, Unbiased. Do you see a problem with these things?

OK. So you think it's the responsibility of private industry to meet your personal expectations, and not do what makes them money (which is why they are in business to begin with).

Were you one of those people that supported the PMRC, the groups that tried to get certain DJs off the radio, the groups that tried to get cable TV and satellite radio censored, or do you believe in free capitalism?

So you are just going to rephrase what you said then talk more shit without answering the question. Great back and forth conversational skills you have there Mr. Brick Wall, I mean Rob.

I am curious RobGMN... what does the public pay CNN to do?

It's an interesting question. I think the core audience is paying for a few things.

1) Fuel for their anti-Trump rage.
2) Someone to reinforce their beliefs.
3) A clearinghouse for the latest "approved" narratives.
4) Marching orders.
5) Justification for their hatred of their fellow man.
6) A daily dose of white guilt.
7) A sense of community.

Rob thinks the only way for news channels to make money via capitalism is to be unethical, immoral and biased. What does that tell you about RobGMN's mindset.

Free markets are cool when it allows for CNN to spew garbage and act irresponsibly. Free markers are bad when it comes to the cars we drive, energy sources, etc. It's called selective free market capitalism and of course Always Right Rob is the most qualified person to determine when & how the market should be restricted.

I'm sorry you missed the point.

That point being: Business does what business does in order to survive and thrive.
If a business doesn't satisfy your desires, it is because they are more successful in not doing so. If your way meant more success, then that's what businesses would do.

The cool thing about the USA is that if you think your desires match the desires of others, you can start your OWN business that caters to those desires. Business is all about filling a need, or creating the need and then filling it.

The internet gives you exposure to literally a world full of people. You should start a broadcast of your own that fits the mould of what you think a broadcast should be, and get it out there. You may hit an untapped market and make a fortune. And at the same time, you get exactly what you want that the current outlets are not giving you.
Win-win.

When have I ever railed against free markets and capitalism?

It's fantasy, so I offered a reality, which was this:

"That point being: Business does what business does in order to survive and thrive.

I'm sorry if you were expecting me to congratulate you on the fantasy, or feed into it by acting like it made sense.
As you may have noticed by my past comments on religion, fairy tales ain't my bag.
