I know! And CNN International is more liberal that the CNN in the US.
But there are only two major choices - CNN International and BBC World.
didn’t someone in the WH have to approve it.?
Hard to believe they would wiretap trumps place and Obama not be told.
Multi-year contracts with annual payments. $100k/yr is low for big airports.
Since most big airports are government owned, contracts are public, if one can figure out where to look.
My theory is CIA pays CNN who pays airports. Where does CIA get the $$$?
MORE “PreDictive Programming”!!!!!!!

sorry wrong thread
I believe Southwest Airlines plays Fox News.
“CNN is paying the airports approximately $100,000 each to pump propaganda into Americas airports, holding its hapless travelers hostage.”
Wow! A bribe to force passengers to listen to staccato blabbering nonsense? That is a Quid Quo Pro ! They should be completely removed from the airport premises PRONTO,.No games and no delay
If they do that, I will never fly again. I hate commercials of any type. They are designed to con weak minded fools into believing that they need what is being advertised. It is sick and shows how pathetic people are becoming. IMO.
Some Airports have switched over to TBS - Have not seen Fox at any major Airports.
Um- that would be like a person- business owner, paying $6,000,000 just to have people walk by their store front- Certainly this can’t be a lucrative business deal-
let’s say 200 people decide to shop as a result during the year- they purchase say 200 items for about $100 apiece- the store makes a profit of say 20% on each item- that’s a $8000 profit- (Ugg my math is probably wrong!)
anyways- the point is that spending $6,000,000 to get back several thousand doesn’t seem like a winning strategy
Are they really getting any propaganda benefit out of this?
Unless there’s actual breaking news like a mass shooting, EVERYBODY at the airport is on their phones or laptops.
I flew this month and couldn’t even tell you if there was a TV at the gate.
Money laundering from THE GREAT DEMOCRAT PARTY MONEY LAUNDERING OPERATION.
CIA gets its CNN $$$ from the drug business.
Right, dont understand issue here - pay for access is OK
Fox can pay 7M if they like (and I would like them to)
LOL, that’s sad. Have to pay to get anyone to watch.
An CNN gets $1 per month from every cable and satellite subscriber whether they watch it or not. That’s $12 a year timex 90 million subscribers or $1.08 BILLION before they take in any ad revenue.
So let me say it again in case someone here might wish to understand how CNN works: They get a billion dollars a year just for being carried on cable and satellite, regardless of how many people watch.
So what if they pay $5.8 million to airports? That’s pocket change for CNN.
From my own observations, everyone in airports are staring at their phones, not CNN.
