Jeff Zucker’s meteoric rise in the media industry may not be over yet.
Zucker, the president of CNN, is now the leading — if not the only — internal candidate being considered to become chief executive of WarnerMedia, the new conglomeration owned by AT&T that includes Warner Bros., HBO and Turner Broadcasting, according to five high-level WarnerMedia sources................................

Good question! Zucker should be ridden out of CNN on a rail by now.
He ought to be retired.
The answer to that question is very simple.
Zucker is the Left’s hero for steadfastly maintaining the Liberal’s dogma shield. Liberals care not about losing money. They care about maintaining the last line of defense in the liberal echo chamber, for without it, the liberal house of cards falls apart.
That’s the reason why Zucker keeps his spot or is promoted.
Failing upwards. Sorry, this game is only for liberals.
He’s done such a great job at CNN improving business, ratings and their reputation, obviously he should get promoted to a bigger job. (sarc)
In fact this is proof that in corporate America, the idea of a business being a meritocracy, especially one run by progressive socialist democrats, is DOA. Politics, double standards and ideological purity rule the day. Where I work it happens too, managers are afraid to hire really competent people for fear they’ll take their managerial job sometime in the future. There are also the double standards; no political messages on shirts or clothing; of course that rule is enforced ruthlessly against Trump supporters and Conservatives, yet Bernie Bro’s and gals can happily wear their “Feel the Bern” shirts et al; then of course there was the Qanon follower that changed his email signature to have WWG1WGA under his name, of course a snowflake progressive claimed to not feel comfortable working with this person and when HR found out what it meant, “Where We Go One, We Go All”, and where it was from, Q posts, he was promptly fired. But of course progressive dems can happily put their little pro abortion, pro socialism/communism personal messages under their signature and that’s no problem.
Gotta be true, but it stinks!
Let him do for time warner what he did for CNN.

Jeff Zucker brings a winning record to the table.
/mega-sarc
He should have been fired years ago.
“Failing upwards” describes the left completely. The sick thing is that 60 million plus Americans admire failure.
You’re so right! I know Jeff and he has ruined everything he has touched!
He’s a hack.
Funny thing is, his oldest son is a Republican!

Is that from a fake news source? Is it from Zucker’s publicist? But to call CNN “one of the leading new brands” is a joke, and it makes the rest of the information in it questionable to say the least. This stuff is from CNN and the LA Times, its all propaganda, wouldn’t believe a word of it. Just Sayin.
The more Fatboy Zucker fails, the more he moves upward. These big corps sure know how to waste shareholder money.
“Zucker” rhymes with “hooker.” Explains it all.
Warner Media interview with Jeff Zucker:
So how is CNN doing since you been running the network?
Jeff Zucker: The ratings have been dropping like a rock.
Warner Media: How is it that CNN is still on the air?
Jeff Zucker: It is the cable companies being forced to bundle CNN with all the other low rated networks that keeps CNN going.
Warner Media: So why do you want to be ceo of Warner Media?
Jeff Zucker: A new challenge to see how I can repeat the same success.
Warner Media: ok, we will get back to you.
