Viewers Flood FCC with Letters About CNN

The FCC has no control over cable, but that hasn't stopped viewers from writing letters the agency to complain about CNN. 

The FCC has more than 1,000 letters from viewers just since June that complain about CNN's coverage of Donald Trump. 

CNN has basically cast aside all news coverage to focus exclusively on the President. While Fox News coddles up to Trump, CNN is filled with non-stop bashing of the President. Good luck finding a cable news outlet that just covers Trump objectively. 

The NY Daily News writes that out of the complaints, about 750 call for CNN to be taken off the air or lose its broadcasting license, which the FCC cannot do. Nearly a dozen accuse CNN of broadcasting "illegal" content and committing "treason" or "crimes against America." One says the station should face a $100 million government fine.

In hundreds of other complaints, viewers call the news channel "disgusting," "fake," "bogus," "fictitious," "communistic," and a "danger" to the President.

Out of 1,161 initial complaints, more than 90% focus on CNN, and the term "CNN" appears more than 8,600 times. By comparison, complaints about NBC, ABC, CBS and Fox News total fewer than 100 combined.

This is CNN....
