I have no idea whether you are a Fox or Newsmax viewer so this post, although prompted by your remarks, is not directed at you personally.
Criticism of CNN, if this is true, is perfectly valid but the display of righteous indignation by some is beyond hypocritical. Fox put no end of effort into denigrating Biden, lying about his health and connections to China and activities in Ukraine, while at the same time shamelessly promoting Trump in the hopes of getting him reelected. To suggest the left enjoys being lied to is rich given the lies and conspiracy theories constantly pumped out by RW media and gleefully consumed by a non-thinking, willing audience.
I doubt this is a fully truthful report, that is not how Veritas operates, but no doubt there is some "there there". The difference between the left and right, as best I can see, is that the left approaches news sources with a grain of skepticism and doesn't buy into whatever the talking heads are saying especially when they show a definite bias as Acosta or Lemon does. The right on the other hand buys it all hook line and sinker and regurgitates it word for word daily. They actually believe the likes of Tucker et al without ever considering that he may be deliberately agitating them for ratings.
