Your network sucks your lies have a backbone

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - The network broadcasts the former president with lies and lacks backbone.
  • - The viewer says the network lies to keep the former president in office.

I cant believe that you broadcasted Trump with all of his lies. Sometimes you have to have a backbone well.

CBS has no backbone and you prove that tonight and then youre after broadcast with people up their line for Trump. The American people arent stupid. Theyre tired of his dumb *** and theyre tired of you lying. Your network is lying to keep his *** in office.

Well got a secret for you. Hes going to prison baby him and all his buddies.

User's recommendation: Quit watching CBS cause they lie

Breaking News

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Breaking news interrupts The Price Is Right in the Chicago area.
  • - It disrupts scheduled programming and viewers could wait for regular news times.

Chicao area ACB, are always disrupting Price is Right with frivolous, unnecessary, breaking news reports. Instead of waiting for regular news times.

When interested viewers could choose to be informed.

Unless we are under attack. Stop interrupting scheduled programming.

IMO

New Hosts

AI Highlights
  • - •I miss Nora and want John Dickerson in the second half.
  • - •The cohost is distracting.
  • - •Second half should be shown first; Monster Fish had prompt issues.

I miss Nora and I love the second half of the evening news with just John Dickerson, but the two of them together is not a good match its ridiculous. The second half of the news program should be on the first half.

I do not like the other male French Cohost hes distracting and it defeats your purpose. Like tonight they are doing a story on Monster fish, & he obviously doesn't know how to read a prompter, after the report he end with "something new under the Sun, instaed os sea" poor John , he shouldn't have to share the anchor position ??

ITS CLEARLY APPARENT THAT CBS NEWS HAS A BIAS LEFT LEANING AGENDA.
