America's hyper-partisanship needs to end

It took CNN just minutes to trash the Iran deal after President Trump’s recent announcement. Reporter Nic Robertson, a foreign policy expert, immediately ran down his list as to why the “deal” was flawed.

Robertson had nothing new and no pertinent information. Same old thing; Trump’s policies are bad.

CNN will soon have new management, and like CBS, there will be a purge. Hating Trump is not good journalism. Expect resignations.

Also, like CBS, the left will jump up and down with indignation. The progressive movement is losing its stronghold on TV news, and the left doesn’t like it one bit.

The whole thing started with the Iraq War and then supersized with Barack Obama. Hillary Clinton never had a chance against the man whom the liberal media portrayed as Moses.

Yes, there is hyper-partisanship on the right, but nothing like the progressive stance of the corporate media.

The good news: it will soon be over.
