A National Review Online and Forbes contributor, Carrie Lukas wrote on Twitter that her daughter is forced to watch CNN every day in school. She wrote in response to another mother whose son had to remove his Trump hat in school.
My daughter is being forced by a teacher to watch @CNN every day. I’m pretty sure I have a child abuse claim. https://t.co/aWh7TjnwGb

Another Twitter user wrote, “In my son’s middle school in California they have a lesson called CNN 10. I found out about it two years ago and I immediately requested he be excused from participating. The school had know [sic] problem with the request but would not get credit. Now he does extra credit to make it up”
Others, many others said the same thing:
“Agreed!! My kid’s school does this too. We tell them not to listen to everything you hear.”
“Last year a public school teacher mentioned to me that they watch CNN at certain times of the day. Hard to believe, but it’s true.”
“My daughter told me the same thing. They have to watch CNN10 in the morning. We will be discussing whatever the topic is, daily. This is ridiculous.”
“Same here. Solved it.”
“My son is as well, I am not happy!”
“The only material my grandkids schools use is from CNN. It makes me sick”
“Yep. My son has brought up progressive talking points from CNN 10 that I’ve had to correct. The Scholastic Jr. publications he brings home are just as bad.”
Progressives are brainwashing your child in school. Know what they are teaching. Check their work. Don’t be afraid to complain and bring other parents with you.
You can comment on the article after the ads and subscribe to the Daily Newsletter here if you would like a quick view of the articles of the day and any late news:
Don’t forget doctor’s office waiting rooms and do forget about anyone changing the channel.
Nurse Ratchett gets testy with anyone playing musiks on their sailfawn (cellphone).
If you do have to be exposed to the brain cell destroying rot that is the Communist News Network just imagine Benny Hill’s yakety yak theme playing or picture the comrades in clown wigs and pointy noses.
If you laugh out loud with great gusto then they might change the channel.
Prior to this there was Channel One which included its own controversy.
It has been said TV is the best baby sitter of all for parents. Plant the little darlings in front of the TV and they’re entertained for hours so the parent can go about doing what they want to do. Same here for the teachers, turn on the TV and go to coffee. But CNN is not geared for children and too bad that for critical thinking what they’re watching is biased opinion. Schools used to subscribe to Channel 1 to enable the students to learn about world events and discuss them in social studies classes. I can see that as a valuable tool but also saw that as a danger if opinions were injected in the news. Now their watching CNN? That is nothing but leftist spinning of the truth and biased opinions stated as fact.
CNN is the FICTION CHANNEL!!! FAKE news, every time, all the time!!! If you are not watching Fox News or NewsMax, you are watching GARBAGE!!!
I’m liking Fox News less and less each day. I watch only at certain times. I hardly ever miss Tucker Carlson as I consider him to be near genius level. I watch Hannity until he repeats himself too many times. (I especially like when he has Leo Terrell 2.0 as a guest.)
I watch Mark Levin without fail as I consider him a genius AND a polite interviewer. (He asks his guest a question, then shuts up as we hear the response.)
I watch Laura Ingraham until she has two fighting guests who insist upon talking over each other. Oftentimes, Laura makes it a three way competition for airtime.
