Pro-American spin? Lol... There is nothing about America mentioned in the article, so I guess you didn't actually read it. It provided essentially the same exact article, days earlier, and didn't include the unnecessary American blurb in the OP posted article.
Cool, thanks for offering even more sources. I specifically chose the CNN article because of the identical headline and near identical content, which this random outlet likely copied from. CNN is left leaning btw. The only way it is right wing is if you skew harder to the left, so I guess we already know where you stand.
Al Jazeera is no more neutral than CNN. You just get the Qatari government perspective rather than Liberal/Democrat Americans. Reuters and DW are definitely more neutral.
You criticized an anti-American perspective then gave a pro-American perspective... To counterbalance it, I guess?
Calling CNN left-leaning is more a condemnation of America's completely fucked political landscape than anything else. They're at best centre-right.
I criticized the opening blurb which added nothing to the article beyond being anti-American. I guess your reading comprehension failed you, because I already stated why I used the CNN article. It's near identical to the article it predates, which raises some questions.
Center by some standards, sure, but certainly not right leaning. Maybe your political stance is more fucked, hence your confusion? We can just add that to your lack of reading comprehension.
yawn
US Psyops out in force today
"I have no factual basis for defending my previous claim, so I'll double down on my bullshit."
CNN is a byproduct of American politics. Only a US psyop would try to convince people that the Democrats are anything more than a moderate party at best.
Or you're simply talking to an American who has an understanding of US vs EU political standings. At least you are finally agreeing with me that, yes, by EU standards the Democrats are more center than left.
The issue was you claiming they're right wing. Lol
So... CNN is a Democrat mouthpiece? Maybe they're calling for the Dems to be more left-wing?
They're a moderate news source along the US spectrum, making them center-right along the global spectrum. I stand by my statement, but I don't think we're disagreeing much.
I guess you're not even familiar with them since you stick to this narrative yet ask basic questions such as that.
So you're saying CNN's on the same level of partisanship as Fox News or MSNBC?
