Until they fire Jeff Zucker, they will never get it straightened out.

Discovery is gonna clean house after the deal closes, just watch and see. Not political - they’ve got to pay for it and CNN is a big steaming otful of “synergies” writing to be had. Return to a true news format, hire newsreaders for a small fraction of what they’re paying this so-called “talent” and change the culture overnight. This integration is a no-brainer. And none of the above jeopardizes the billion $ plus in carriage fees they get before selling ad #1.

At first I misread the title as “Steaming Launch” instead of “Streaming Launch.” Oddly accurate.

I still remember Don Farmer and Chris Curl at the beginning of CNN. They were excellent.

CNN was great until Jane Fonda married Ted Turner.

As I think of it, CNN’s airport TV business probably died for a couple reasons: 1) Covid, which clearly the airports for passengers, and 2) Streaming to mobile phones which meant CNN no longer had a captive audience.

John Malone, the billionaire whose backing the new owner as much as said they will be bringing journalism back to CNN.

So there’s hope out there.
