what those areas have in common is that they are populated by a black majority - which is why Trump doesnt want more of you guys....

Why are you all not always against Fox news that could do anything to support Trump?
Fox news are smarter than CNN international. They thread with caution because of their viewership however CNN doesn't give a damn. Anyway, CNN will have a taste of their medicine.

I know that, you know that, but during Trump's administration, CNN et al didn't recognize natural disasters. Hurricanes, floods, epidemics were all considered to be "acts of Trump". That's why I'm happy that this happened post Trump. Otherwise, we would have been having repeated news on the hour about how Trump betrayed Texans by freezing their water supply. We can hear word now. Just look at how there are no more Covid-19 mortality updates, no more BLM and police brutality news, no more serious news about how much TP the POTUS wastes daily contributing to climate change. If there's anything I like about Biden's win (deserved or otherwise), it's the fact that all the leftist yappings that had been going on for 4 years prior have ceased totally.
Lol I experience two Hurricane under Trump I see now where on CNN or other news that blame him for that. They could talk about Trump not believing in Global warming which is a fact( which you don't even know) We all know what global warming is causing. So if you talk in that direction I agree with you.
Between Trump of a man almost equates himself to God so when you have a man of such character what do you expect, a man that knows everything more than anybody. CBS news also gives reports about Trump so why is it only CNN?
As for Biden's win it is deserved! He might not be the best but a sane man in now in power. Thanks.

Indeed! Do you even watch Fox News? I bet you hardly do that because if you live Nigerian or in any other part of Africa CNN is the most popular and the most watched so it is easy for you to make conclusions about them. If you had watched Fox News just for a day during Trump regime may be you might have had a better understanding.

You are ignorant to think I waste my time watching that useless station called CNN. I watch fox news, news max, ABC news. So think every nairalander reside in Nigeria I suppose?. CNN international is popular in Africa because it is cheap to broadcast on multi choice. Secondly, they have an MOU with multi choice Africa . Fox news were pretending to be unbiased until the USA election exposed them.

Oga there is nothing useless about CNN just because they don't support your Trump agenda. I bet before the coming of Trump you wouldn't have called CNN a cheap network. How on earth will I think every Nairalander resides in Nigeria? Check my comment to the other guy. I don't live in Nigeria either, I live in Texas.
If you watch other News network that is probably because you don't reside in Nigeria either.

CNN international has been useless from immemorial. I never liked them before Trump contested for president. They haven't changed in their lies they dish to the public.
