Brian Craig, co-host of the Steve Kane Radio radio show, said something quite SHOCKING on the morning of August 20, 2024. Brian stated that he thinks that CNN wants Trump to win an election!!! At first glance that seems like an absurd idea. I know I was quite shook up when I heard that. However, watch as Brian elaborates on that idea and the very weird thing is it actually makes a lot of sense when you analyze what CNN has been doing recently.
You can watch that entire show with Brian Craig at this LINK.
PING!
A second Trump term is probably the only thing that could turn around their dismal ratings.
I think you are on-track.
If Harris wins, CNN and PMSNBC can hang it up.
That’s right.
It would certainly be better for them to get four years of ratings from the libtards. Purely as a business decision, CNN would be much better with Trump winning. And then of course, as individuals, I’m sure they have savings accounts, IRAs, buy groceries, buy gasoline. So yeah, it would make sense they would want Trump.
With friends like CNN, who needs enemies?
Ratings wise, Trump brings CNN and MSNBC huge ratings, because they would do exactly what they did to Trump during his presidency and that is go after him constantly and get into verbal shouting matches with him which equals ratings, so yeah I can see how they want him to win behind the scenes..besides, they all know that Trump is no threat to “Democracy” heck even the commies know that but they need a talking point
CNN realizes if they go with the over-the-top 24/7 TDS they will just continue to lose share to MSNBC. They are trying to carve out a middle ground.
I caught a portion of a CNN interview a few days ago with a black lady who ran a Trump memorabilia store. What part that I saw was very surprisingly pro-Trump. Even the CNN person was definitely not anti-Trump in their comments.
A second Trump term is probably the only thing that could turn around their dismal ratings.

That was my first thought too, but it defies recent left-leaning media models that are typically owned by billionaires (WaPo for ex.) who don’t care about profit as much as ideology.
The old conventional ideology would be that any organization has an inherent desire for self preservation, but that’s not the way left-leaning organizations operate. Perhaps CNN has reached the precipice and decided self sacrifice is too far?
Yeah. Huge ratings of hundreds of thousands of viewers.
Well … it would mean better ratings for them if Trump won. 🤣
Elite Stream Media may be happy the Dems dumped Joey, but are the elites happy with Kammy, I think NOT.
As USUAL everyone thought Trump was talking crazy when he initially said that he didn’t think Kammy would be the eventual nominee.
There’s still time to replace her, and for Maureen Dowd to ask, “What another coup?”
Kammy just a candidate on consignment.
She can be replaced and chances are she will be.
CNN isn’t favoring Trump, it is just expressing its displeasure with Kammy and her boy Walzy.
Global billionaires make their money being crony capitalists. So yes it does defy recent left-leaning media models, that they would want to make money in a free Trump market.
Perhaps CNN now thinks Trump will likely win, so they are switching their model. Wishful thinking on my part, perhaps.
Audience shocks Colbert, CNN host with unexpected laughs: ‘Was that a laugh line?

(watch the first 20 seconds)
Getting pretty late to replace Kammy and the open windows guy. Did you see the first day of the convention. It looks like a coronation.
How and when would she/they be replaced?
That was funny. Even Colbert had to go along with it.
Authoritarian regimes can do whatever they please, whenever they please.
How is a question not even on the table.
You are right it was staged as a coronation, but the point of this thread was that it seems to be a coronation that the elites are not buying into, hence CNN’s less than enthusiastic response.
Maybe CNN doesn’t approve of the Kamala Coup??
