I would not be surprised if most Americans agree that CNN took a sharp left turn from a Breaking News Channel to Political Satire after Trumps victory in 2016. The once award winning news organization, now appears to be competing for relevance with The Onion and The Babylon Bee. Finding new life in lampooning President Donald Trump and his administration.
In the United States, the parodying of the nation's most powerful is generally considered protected speech under the First Amendment.
