The Babylon Bee Stands In Solidarity With Its Fellow Cancelled Satire Site CNN+
The Babylon Bee ^ | April 22nd, 2022 | BabylonBee.com

Posted on 04/22/2022 2:05:20 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

After investing hundreds of millions of dollars CNN finally unveiled its new satire site CNN+. Unfortunately, only 3 weeks later CNN+ has been canceled—prematurely ending what was certain to be one of the funniest sites ever made. This sort of cancel culture censorship has been targeting comedians for too long, and it must stop.

This is why The Babylon Bee has decided to formally take a stand beside our fellow satire site, CNN+. We too know exactly what it feels like to be suddenly canceled for the simple crime of bringing laughter to the world. When we heard CNN+ wasn’t being canceled for another sex scandal we were shocked, but once we heard that comedy was blatantly being censored again we were outraged.

“Satire writers have to stick together,” said The Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon. “That’s why we are calling for CNN+ to be reinstated immediately. We hereby announce that CNN+ has our full support and we are willing to do whatever is necessary to restore their comedy streaming service. It just goes to show—no matter how wacky and unbelievable your fake news articles are, there are always people who want to shut that down.”

Sources claim that only 10,000 people were willing to watch CNN+, but we believe those 10,000 deserve to be able to continue to laugh at CNN’s delightful brand of comedy.

So we invite you to stand with us and refuse to let comedy be silenced. If you ever want to see hilarious skits or articles about how good of a job Biden is doing, or how competent and relatable Kamala is—then subscribe to The Babylon Bee and help us fight for CNN+ today!

The Bee staff is brilliant. No other description is adequate. Contrast them with the weak, wimpy, and gassy fumes coming from our formerly respected (a very long time ago) major newspapers and networks.

This is the only parody site left with the creativity to keep up with the left. Well done.

CNN business model for CNN+ was brilliant. Not really. They had a network with a massive declining viewership because the viewers did not want to watch this crap. So they came up with this great idea. Let us make the viewers pay for the crap they do not want to watch and can watch the same crap on CNN for free. It is like opening up a whore house with old ugly whores (Mike Wallace) and expecting many patrons. It does not happen.
