If people could have trusted CNN as an unbiased and accurate news source, without an agenda, and willing to call out anyone irrespective of party, they’d still be doing well. Instead, they put their ideology and arrogance above all else, and stopped doing their job. They are paying a big price for that.

It has happened to a lot of us.

Past time for the Ministry of Propaganda to have layoffs.

CNN deserves to die. I’m worried about FOX hiring any of those 300 a$$h*les. Then FOX will deserve to die also. Too bad CNN has no code of honor, by having those 300 slit their abdomen with a knife so they can’t spread their “brain drain” to other networks.

It should be pointed out that CNN Headline News, which was also one of the major news channels has essentially ceased to exist.

As Obama would say, it is a good thing, they have been freed up to seek new opportunities.

“Why aren’t turds like Don Lemon and Chris Cuomo taking pay cuts to help their co-workers?”

That’s a good question

I don’t think CNN could have a brain drain.

They have long term contracts with airports who are required to run CNN. When those expire, the news network editorial show will implode.

Something to look forward to!

” Headline News”

You know I’ve thought for many years that it should go back to what it originally was....headline news, no editorials, no chit chat, just straight news.

What is most amusing at an airport is to see CNN on multiple screens and the passengers using their phones to watch what they want. CNN is ignored by most.

No. People have no idea how CNN makes it’s money.

Nearly half of it’s revenue comes from carriage fees, which is currently about $1 per month or $12 per year from eveyr cable and satellite subscriber. Of which there are 90 million...so do the math...that’s $1.092 billion in revenue every year for just showing up.

Ratings aren’t a factor, they get this money regardless. It’s quite a nice gig considering fewer than 1 million watch CNN yet 90 million pay for it.

Cut the cord? Sure, about 1 million did last year. So that’s $12 million they didn’t get, vs the 1 billion they did.

I get tired of explaining this over and over and over...
