Simple...no viewers. Viewers finally realized that CNN does not report news, it's a 24-hour editorial on their agenda. So, people have tuned out. Trust me, when the CNN contracts at airports runs out, CNN will be lucky if they have a night watchman.
CNN is on one of the channels at a place I go pretty regularly. I watch the crawl, and it’s just amazing - they really do live in their own sweet little world, oblivious to any facts or reality. No wonder they’re crashing, and not nearly soon enough.
