Great career awaiting at CNN
Aside from CNN/ABC/CBS/NBC, there is actually a cottage industry developing for "local" news that is expressly designed to influence voters by selecting stories and narratives.

Their plan is to create these localized sites in battleground states, then push their stories onto Facebook feeds for people in those states.
Cool! Glad to hear it.
Yay! It's about time a publisher fires one of these fake news artists... rather than simply "recalling" (ie disappearing) a biased, inaccurate story (like the recent story that attributed mass family detentions to Trump when it was later found the stats used were from the Obama administration!).
