RFC on CNN

 * (rfc tag here)

Inspired by the closure of our recent RFC as to the reliability of Fox News, and after some preliminary discussion (here), this RFC seeks to assess community consensus as to the reliability of CNN in the following specific areas:
 * 1) news excluding politics and science
 * 2) politics and science
 * 3) talk/opinion shows

Survey (CNN news excluding politics and science)

 * I think that, similar to Fox, CNN is generally reliable for news coverage on topics other than politics and science. Blueboar (talk) 17:11, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

Survey (CNN politics and science)

 * Similar to Fox, I think we should use CNN with caution to verify contentious claims. I think CNN is biased and opinionated for politics; use in-text attribution for opinions. Blueboar (talk) 17:11, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

Survey (CNN talk/opinion shows)

 * CNN talk/optinion shows, including (but not limited to) Reliable Sources (Brian Stelter, Anderson Cooper 360, Cuomo Prime Time, and CNN Tonight, should not be used for statements of fact but can sometimes be used for attributed opinions. Blueboar (talk) 17:11, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
