Are you american? CNN would be extremely liberal on social issues pretty much everywhere in the world.

I’d like to see an end to this trope of “US liberalism would be conservative anywhere else.” In terms of social issues, it’s blatantly untrue, and US liberals are easily the furthest left of any foreign liberal group on most social issues. In terms of economic issues, it’s only true when comparing actual laws – the progressive wing of the US Democratic Party is at least as far left as any liberal political group holding similar power in any other country.

Debatable, but even if true, its corporate capitalist economic stance would have it somewhere between the center and center-right, definitely no further left, the economic axis being the main determinant of left-right position.

I'd agree on your last point but I'd be curious to hear any example of a more socially liberal mainstream channel in the west.

Are you serious? On social issues cnn is very hard left compared to any parts of the world.
