    I feel like this is the American media in a nutshell. Presenting a clip, not because it actually has merit or says something substantive, but because it will drive an emotional reaction.

    It truly is just entertainment. No wonder it’s such a close race.

  2. I used to like Jake, it’s like his true personality is just now coming out.

  3. What a strange way to set up a question, “Many of our viewers criticize us for talking about Biden’s cognitive issues and not Trump’s. Here’s a clip about Trump saying Kamala has cognitive issues, what do you think about that?”

    It’s the most twisted up illogical nonsense.

    “We like to say that circles are squares and not that squares are squares. Here’s a clip of circles saying that triangles are squares. What do you think about that?”

  4. Democrats have come a long way since 2016 – sadly CNN has not.

    What Tapper is doing is using Trump’s words to try and define Harris. If you haven’t read it, [I urge people to read the Harvard Multi-Part Research into how the media failed us in 2016](https://shorensteincenter.org/research-media-coverage-2016-election/). Or you [can just read the summary](https://shorensteincenter.org/news-coverage-2016-general-election/)

    Whenever the news uses the other candidates words (Trump) to define their opponent (this case Harris), that candidate (Trump) has won. It was done overwhelmingly in 2016 because Trump sells. Tapper playing Trump’s words questioning Harris’s mental capacity is not journalism, it is a play for ratings.

    I have stopped watching CNN in any way shape or form. They’re no longer into news. They just want sensation. And that’s a shame. I used to watch them all the time, particularly during global conflicts. They seemed to have reporters on site at the right time. Now they are just into this garbage.

    Instead of repeating the latest lie from Trump why not cover the fact that everything out of his mouth is a lie?

    Every single thing that comes from Trump’s mouth is crap and a lie. Cover that CNN.

  8. Ted Turner would have fired the entire CNN crew by now if he was still in charge. CNN is like Fox just another entertainment show grasping at straws for ratings.

    I go to the wire services for content now. AP, Reuters, UPI etc.

  9. There was a time when I liked Jake Tapper and some of the other talking heads on CNN. All of that changed when they platformed an insurrectionist and filled the audience with his cult like fans. Fuck CNN.

    Hope more people see it, CNN isn’t what it once was anymore, it’s another Trump ass kissing network pretending to be centralist. It was hilarious how badly they tried to belittle her after the debate a couple weeks ago.

    I generally like Jake Tapper but Pelosi rightly called him on this BS.

    > “Why would you even cover that?” Pelosi asked pointedly. “This is a person who is not on the level. He is their nominee for president. He is incompetent. Let’s not even talk about the silliness of it all, and the weirdness of it all, and the assault on women that it is.”

    Tapper trying to defend playing the clip because Trump is the Republican nominee for President was really really weak. I’m dissapointed in him.

    Let’s be honest.

    US Mainstream media wants Trump to win because of the non-stop news cycle because of him, especially if he’s the one sitting as president.

    Once and if he’s out of the picture, cable news becomes boring for them again.

    Jake Tapper lost all credibility with the poorly moderated debate on CNN

    Someone should give Tapper a MAGA cap already, it’s been long overdue.

    Good on her. This is what the media does far to often, they repeat right wing messaging or frame everything from right wing perspective and all that does is boost the right wing perspective and it gets embedded in the public consciousness.

    Tapper should be blacklisted after the terrible moderation he did in the Biden/Trump debate.

  16. OfficialDCShepard on

    Ironically for how much editorial hand wringing the media did over every little Biden mistake, they continue to sanewash Trump and even basically handed him the first debate by allowing him to never answer a single question. Why? Because they know that by artificially keeping the race close in the falsehood of pure objectivity they can get him to program against for this whole year minimum, maybe another four if CNN gets to spar with King Trump to get ratings (if they don’t get thrown in prison) for four years.

    The billionaire-owned media can still get trump/vance elected. They are cutting the horrendous parts of his speeches that are blatantly going to hurt his cult. They are cutting the clips of Harris that will directly help the low and middle class. I never thought I’d see this in my lifetime; that America has few outlets of the truth. We are part way there into turning into a dictatorship, and if trump/vance win changes will occur immediately. Frightening. Please vote 💙🧢 listen to both candidates in full, uncut. Don’t get your news from fox fiction/entertainment media or cnn, owned by MAGA billionaires.

  18. > “I’m sure that you hear from progressive voters, Democratic voters who say—as I hear from them on social media—[that] the media made such a big deal out of Joe Biden’s alleged cognitive problems, [and so] why don’t they talk about Donald Trump’s cognitive problems?” Tapper said. “Well, Donald Trump talked about that just a second ago, and I want to get your reaction.”

    > He then aired a clip of the 78-year-old former president earlier in the day accusing his competitor of having “bigger cognitive problems” than President Joe Biden.

    WTF. Tapper mentions he gets feedback about commenting on Biden’s mental ability but not Trumps and in response he…goes on to play a clip of Trump talking about Harris’ mental ability?! WTF. We should be talking about Tappers mental ability.

    Tapper has been on a roll lately of blatant misinformed journalism. His reporting of representative Tlaib recently was tantamount to outright lying and misinformation.

  20. I’m with Nancy here, why are they even showing such an outrageous piece of propaganda and elevating it to the level of deserving discussion? It’s a deranged lie, same as everything he says. Let that exist in the rallys and not amplify it on the air.

  21. Velocoraptor369 on

    Pelosi missed the opportunity to ask tapper why they don’t introduce DonOld as the former president and current felon. Who cannot vote for himself without committing another crime in the state of Florida.

  22. The way Tapper deflected from racism directed at Rashida Tlaib to say that actually she’s the one being racist, I’ll never respect or trust his word on anything ever again.

    There’s no excuse for this. What else could Tlaib have said to criticize the AG without being accused of anti-semitism? They know exactly what they’re doing, they’re using their platform to spuriously attack the most principled member of Congress on the issue of Israel. There’s no anti-semitism here, and they should issue a retraction and publicly apologize to Tlaib.
