CNN doesn't really care that Trump got elected or that the Democratic party lost. Their bias clearly leans left but at the end of the day, it's all about money.
CNN doesn't really care to have fair and honest commentators/analysts/reporters. What will get more viewership/subscriptions and ad revenue is shock factor media spin.
All the left bias media news companies do this and so do the conservative ones.
If Hilliary had won, the left would be circlejerking right now about how the GOP is dying and better get their shit together. And conservatives media would be going on about how the end of the world is near and Putin is about to drop bombs on the US or that Hilliary is going to invade Russia.
But all that really matters is money. People choose a political side and then go shock factor insane for the money.
The people at the top care about ratings and will influence the coverage, but people like Don Lemon have a clear bias and this recent incident shows it. Fox News cares about ratings too, but clearly they have an ideological bent. During the election CNN did a pretty good job in the evenings as far as political coverage.
