What do you think of CNN? Is it credible?

Content: That is, by design, an information stream much like a cell phone conversation that drops out words and phrases. Only partial information gets through and it is by definition unreliable while ironically being an excellent business model. Most news actually has no value, but where news might be significant enough to require a responsible individual to seek complete and accurate information, one should probably watch CNN and Fox News and then check additional, non-politicized sources. In the latter case, I just had a discussion that suggested that Trump was guilty of infringing the Hobbs act. I was familiar with it, but referred back to my notes and realized that it had no bearing at all on Trump alleged quid-pro-quo (the Hobbs act deals with interference with interstate commerce and the solicitation of bribes by government officials). You may have a different opinion, but I use this issue for illustration, not debate. No media today (or ever) communicates complete information. Someone actually motivated to fully understand an issue discussed by the media needs to go through substantial error-correcting efforts to fill in information withheld for narrative reasons. It’s like getting a second opinion on a health issue. Another doctor may have additional information that changes the character of the diagnosis (or confirms it).
