CNN EVISCERATED For Failing To Fact Check Debate Lies

"CNN, the host of Thursday’s debate between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, has faced criticism for the absence of real-time fact-checking of the two candidates.

Trump spread several falsehoods during his time onstage on issues ranging from the economy and his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot to veterans care. While Biden struggled to counter Trump’s false claims, many wondered why the two moderators, CNN’s Jake Tapper and Dana Bash, failed to interject."*

The largest online progressive news show in the world. Hosted by Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian. LIVE weekdays 6-8 pm ET.

The Young Turks are fearless in talking about the issues that matter. We are a rare show that combines all of the news that people care about in one place. We cover politics, entertainment, sports, and pop culture; all through a progressive lens.

What does it mean to be a “Young Turk?”

According to the American Heritage Dictionary;
1. Young progressive or insurgent member of an institution, movement, or political party.
2. Young person who rebels against authority or societal expectations.

"Sharp-witted, persuasive, and inspiring, calling out toxic Republicans, politely-ineffectual Democrats, and mealy-mouthed media mavens in equal measure, JUSTICE IS COMING will give heart to Democrats and progressives who seek to change our politics and society for the better.

The media can’t stop talking about the gridlock in Washington, as if a handful of stubborn Republicans are the only thing standing between us and a fully-functional democracy. The reality is that our government has been taken over by big business and their allies in both political parties. The getaway driver in this heist was corporate media. The good news is that the American people are very progressive. And soon progressives will take over Washington as well! And when they do, the great majority of Americans will love it.

In JUSTICE IS COMING: How Progressives Are Going to Take Over the Country and America Is Going to Love It (On sale: September 19, 2023), The Young Turks founder Cenk Uygur presents two ideas that counter everything we hear from pundits and politicians on a daily basis: one, progressives are correct on all issues, and two, America is actually a very progressive country. Millions of us know that we are a part of something larger, a movement that is already transforming Washington.

JUSTICE IS COMING, a compulsively readable manifesto, seeks to apply the momentum progressives have already built to a concrete progressive agenda that activists, voters, and citizens can all rally around. JUSTICE IS COMING looks beyond Trump to the larger historical forces that have given us this unique political moment, and explains why we should fight, how we should fight, and how we will win."

CNN should hold their heads in shame. Their failure to fact check is deplorable.

[TerryBrown-gcqr]

Why even try and debate a liar in the first place. All you will get is Another Lie!!!

[KentuckyS]

They didn't drop the ball, they never picked it up! They never intended to fact check trump.
🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸

[Nan]

I’ve been watching CNN for a long time but I was very disappointed in Jake and Dana during the debate! They let Trump go on and on with his lies without calling him out! They should also have corrected Biden when he was wrong! Now CNN is decimating Biden for his poor performance during the debate. You’re just helping Trump now! VOTE BLUE!💙💙💙💙

[brendadubose]

They should never do the debate no more CNN that was terrible

[Nan]

I agree totally Jake and Dana let the country down!

[myroncohn]

I think Dana and Jake have been two of the best. However, I am so disappointed in their lack of fact checking the King of liars

[josephbuyck]

Yes, jake and the lady dropped the ball on this debate by allowing trump to lie the entire time.

[patmischel]

That debate shouldn't have happened. Debate a felon no way.

[pattijohnson]

allowed Donald Trump to lie and did not correct it.

[marvinhenderson]

I stopped watching cnn after that, and others should do so. Reporters should want to fact check in a situation such as a debate. Tapper & Bash should be fired for not doing their job.

[MaryAnneBowers-Scoures]

Jack Tapper better hunker down with CNN until he can retire. After that debate he won't stand a chance of being hired as a journalist... anywhere, even Fox!!!
Yikes!!

[WVron_steelersstud]

I thought Jake Tapper was a great reporter but after debate and him allowing trump to lie about everything he said i will never respect tapper again or have any respect for him again

[jjs]

CNN lost their credibility years ago, I’m not sure what people truly expected with those two hosting.

[paulbreault]

I’m completely done with CNN. I’ll never be able to look at Jake and Dana’s face again. They have now a serious peace in destroying American democracy.

[WilliamMorales-kgio]

They want Trump to win BECAUSE he's about to LOWER THEIR TAXES and that's good for them, and their bottom line!!😂😂😂

[orion_nebula]

The debate was three against one. The timing for the debate was horrible, Biden just came back from traveling abroad and was also under cold medicine. I'm 57 and had some Sudafed the last few days and made me feel like crap.

[normandknowlesdmd]

They’re not false claims, they’re lies.

[angiesmith]

The governor of Virginia did say they would lay the baby on the table and figure it out. Look it up.

[Karen-cieu]

That presidential debate to me was more like a Trump ralley!
