    2. To Robby's credit, so glad he reminded everyone that Medhi is not exactly the best faith actor, here.
    3. Bri, to quote Andrew Dice Clay: "for a chick, you got some set of balls." You are preaching about anchors who would "cater their opinion to the network," yet, on this very_same_show, in this very_same_clip, you go to bat for Medhi Hasan at every turn. This is a man who begged the Daily Wire for a job, citing that he will echo their conservative sentiments, only years later to bash their morals on a liberal network. So, if you have a problem with people who "cater their opinion to the network," do your friggin job, and be consistent with all, including but not limited to the ones you support.
    This is an absolute weasel move on your part.

    CNN as got to make a real and follow through decision. Do they want to be known as a biased news network like FOX and MSNBC or do they want to return to a more news type network. You can have opinion people as long as they TRULEY come from both sides of the political conversations. Having "guests" on that only represent one side is not a good plan. I realize that most people are very polarized and love to her their side only and like to rant along with the station on people. But this is not the respectful way to go. Only question is can CNN return to a respectful news outlet and keep people. People love their "reality" news. Which is FAKE.

      No, he wasn’t right with that irresponsible, ignorant remark. Your doctor, Professor, teacher, or nurse can easily be a woman over forty.
      Julia Child, known as America’s First celebrity chef was around forty before she hit it big and published her first book that made her famous. Harriet Tubman was also forty or so when she was still helping slaves escape. Colonel Sanders was sixty-five when he started his KFC chicken franchise.
      If these people had listened to Mr. Lemon’s antics about not being in their “prime”, they would have missed their destiny and life’s work.
      Some people don’t get started or make it until later in life. Their perseverance is to be commended. If a person has a goal they want to achieve or want to go back to school or something, they should not listen to somebody else’s judgment on what their “prime” is.

      @@penandpencilplow Yea, u dont get it. It is a long time standard thing to talk about a persons prime. It has been for thousands of years considered the best child bearing age for women. Agree or not, that is the way it has always been. If u want to change that, it will take more decades. cuz fact of the matter is, if you asked, most people would say a woman prime is from 18 to, oh, probably around 32. JUST THE FACTS MAAM

      ​@@penandpencilplow the fact that you can remember those people. shows they are the exception, not the rule.
      WHen he was speaking about a womans prime, he was talking about MOST women, not the exception, and yes my dear, women doctors are the exception.
      Everything else u said was off topic.

    Where is the story about 725 thousand people protesting in Brazil and Lulu's decision that Bolsonaro cant run for office for 10 years this is a parallel story to J6th in US and Democracy again trying to be taken out of the voter's hands too! The visuals of see a crowd this large is pure visual epic gold!
