Is this the end of CNN's left-wing bias? Billionaire Trump donor, who is the largest shareholder of the network's new owner Discovery, wants to restore it to impartiality - and INSISTED on Jeff Zucker's departure after his affair was exposed

    John Malone is chairman of Liberty Media, Discovery's largest shareholder
    He previously donated $250,000 to Trump's inauguration, and told of wanting to restore CNN to impartial journalism after years of left-wing bias

Not holding my breath.... I remember in the late 80's my dad saying he preferred CNN because it was based in a Southern state of georgia, and was more conservative than the yankee/NYC based other news stations....

Many thought that but, if I remember correctly, CNN was started by Ted Turner who was married to the infamous Jane Fonda.   No Conservative in his right mind would be married to that.

I do agree that CNN presented themselves the way your dad remembered them but, I would not agree that they presented a Conservative view.   Everything can and has been slanted for a very long time.

I'm the car world Discovery is known for ruining everything it touchesby injecting PC nonsense where it doesn't belong. So not counting on anything changing at CNN.
