CNN is planning to cut up to 300 jobs

I just don't understand it. I mean they are on every tv I see at the airports.

See #8. They have long term contracts with airports who are required to run CNN. When those expire, the news network editorial show will implode.

If CNN doesn’t have the money to pay 300 employees - maybe soon they won’t have the money to pay airports off...

“CNN pays airports to leave the network on, and many travel hubs even have agreements in which CNN pays for their TVs and infrastructure. The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that airports also receive “up to six minutes each hour to promote the airport or local attractions” as part of the deal.”
