CNN is a US television channel. Donald Trump called it a purveyor of "fake news" before he was elected.[1] Observing its banning in Venezuela for persistent "fake news", 21st Century Wire termed it "Deep State TV network and master of fake news".[2]

Anticipating the collapse of WTC7, CNN announced at 4:10pm on September 11th, 2001 that another building in the WTC complex "has collapsed or is collapsing".[3] Later that evening they reported that a van of explosives had been stopped on the New Jersey Turnpike,[4] a report about the George Washington Bridge Plot which was quickly amended by Bernard Kerik.

Jamie Mcintyre stated “From my close-up inspection, there is no evidence of a plane having crashed anywhere near the Pentagon... The only pieces left that you can see are small enough that you could pick up in your hand. There are no large tail sections, wing sections, a fuselage, nothing like that anywhere around which would indicate that the entire plane crashed into the side of the Pentagon and then caused the side to collapse. Even though if you look at the pictures of the Pentagon you see that the floors have all collapsed, that didn’t happen immediately, it wasn’t until almost about forty-five minutes later that the structure was weakened enough that all of the floors collapsed.”[7]
Censorship
In 2014 Donald Sterling's former mistress V. Stiviano was in New York to appear in an hour-long interview scheduled with Anderson Cooper. This was pulled without explanation.[8]
Denial of the US Deep state
CNN has been pretty consistent in denying the existence of the US deep state, and has consistently used quote marks for the phrase when summarising other's speech.[9][10][11] It has depicted it as a (self-evidently) untrue "conspiracy theory" popular with Donald Trump. Julian Zelizer in June 2018 headlined a report Trump uses IG report to spread 'deep state' conspiracy, equating "conspiracy" with "conspiracy theory".[12]
War Profiteers
Global Research reports on an investigation by the Public Accountability Initiative into the TV appearances of a set of war pundits with known ties to weapons manufacturers which found that out of "37 appearances of the pundits named, CNN attempted to disclose that individual’s ties a mere seven times."[13]

During the 2016 US Presidential Election, CNN was widely interpreted as siding with the Hillary Clinton campaign, and was criticised for engaging in numerous acts of partiality, including asking leading questions to a focus group such as "what was it about Hillary Clinton's argument that resonated with you?" When some of Clinton's emails were leaked on Wikileaks, CNN incorrectly told viewers that it was illegal for their listeners to view the emails, but that CNN could view them because the "media have special privileges."[14]
Exposure
Project Veritas
Project Veritas released a secretly recorded video of an interview with John Bonifield. When asked "why is CNN constantly like Russia this, Russia that?" he replied "Because it's ratings... Our ratings are incredible right now", when asked whether it was bullshit, he replied that it "could be bullshit. I mean, it's mostly bullshit right now. Like we, don't have any big giant proof."[14] Another commentator replied that "the Russia thing is just a big nothing burger".
In October 2019 Project Veritas published recordings made secretly by technician Cary Poarch, who was upset by the covert political bias of CNN.

The Twitter Files | “The correspondence between the FBI and Twitter show nothing more than examples of our traditional, longstanding and ongoing federal government and private sector engagements, which involve numerous companies over multiple sectors and industries. As evidenced in the correspondence, the FBI provides critical information to the private sector in an effort to allow them to protect themselves and their customers. The men and women of the FBI work every day to protect the American public. It is unfortunate that conspiracy theorists and others are feeding the American public misinformation with the sole purpose of attempting to discredit the agency.” | 2022 | FBI, CNN |

"Fake News" | “CNN is the ultimate "fake news" network. There isn't a day that goes by where CNN doesn't deliberately fake a news story, distort a significant event for political purposes, or censor an important piece of news they don't want their viewers to discover.” | Mike Adams | 19 November 2016 |
George Carlin | “Now, to balance the scale, I'd like to talk about some things that bring us together, things that point out our similarities instead of our differences. 'Cause that's all you ever hear about in this country. It's our differences. That's all the media and the politicians are ever talking about—the things that separate us, things that make us different from one another. That's the way the ruling class operates in any society. They try to divide the rest of the people. They keep the lower and the middle classes fighting with each other so that they, the rich, can run off with all the fucking money! Fairly simple thing. Happens to work. You know? Anything different—that's what they're gonna talk about—race, religion, ethnic and national background, jobs, income, education, social status, sexuality, anything they can do to keep us fighting with each other, so that they can keep going to the bank! You know how I define the economic and social classes in this country? The upper class keeps all of the money, pays none of the taxes. The middle class pays all of the taxes, does all of the work. The poor are there just to scare the shit out of the middle class. Keep 'em showing up at those jobs.” | George Carlin | |
Jimmy Carter | “Nowadays, because of the unwarranted invasion of Iraq by Bush and Blair, which was a completely unjust adventure based on misleading statements, and the lack of any effort to resolve the Palestinian issue, [there is] massive Islamic condemnation of the United States. (...) (American media organisations), have been cowed, because they didn't want to be unpatriotic. There has been a lack of inquisitive journalism. In fact, it's hard to think of a major medium in the United States that has been objective and fair and balanced, and critical when criticism was deserved” | Jimmy Carter | 2004 |
