CNN closing offices as COVID-19 cases rise

CNN is closing its offices to employees who do not need to work in person.

In an internal memo to employees on Saturday and obtained by The Hill, President Jeff Zucker said the move was being made "out of an abundance of caution," and is tied to a new wave of coronavirus infections sweeping the nation.

The decision to scale back in-person work "will also protect those who will be in the office by minimizing the number of people who are there," the network said.

I have seen this story posted all over the place lately.

Left wing company closes its offices due to covid during the holidays when most employees wouldn’t be coming in anyway.

Why is this news?

That would mean everyone.

They can make it all up from home instead.

In the interest of the public and the nation and the world I request the CCP “News” Network (CNN) to consider closing all their broadcasting for the next few months so that the world is saved from fake news and distortion and pro-corporate propaganda for a while during these difficult uncertain times.

Part 2 of the memo has not been distributed yet, but I have an advanced copy:

“Thanks for working for CNN. We will mail you your personal belongings. You are fired.

Best Wishes and Happy Holidays from the New Owners.”

Do not go to CNN if you are under indictment for a sexual predator or harassment case, if you are in trouble intimidating for witnesses for a disgraced former governor, if you didn’t get full vax jabs, or if your ratings are in the tank the past year.

Hello. Hello. Is there anybody in this building? Hello.

better just take the network off air until the pandemic subsides, for public safety sake...

Good point. It doesn't even matter if it is a left wing company. A lot of places that I have worked over the years, basically shutdown operations over Christmas, particularly manufacturing companies, because they had a lot of people taking vacation days before they lose them on Jan 1.

Offices not really closing, they are just moving to a new location.
