CNN fake news was SLAIN BY THE MAGA-DON DJT.
True. Also you/we can include pols and dept heads like Fauci into the same basket.
Oh no! What will Chris Wallace do now!?!
*waves* at Lefty moronic WallaceIdiot......
My dog would pee on it.
These goofy morons will eventually learn that the entire world does NOT revolve around BS like Twitter....LMAO.
CNN-
“...CNN’s finance chief Brad Ferrer.”
While it’s probably true that he spent too much on the roll-out and the on-air readers got paid too much, it’s hard to blame that guy alone. Look at the product he was trying to sell. Shouldn’t all those responsible for that dog’s vomit get the ax also?
I have no idea what ANYONE was thinking with this CNN+ debacle...
I understand if you are a nobody taking a shot, in the long shot that it might work and help you advance your career... of if your career is fading and can’t get on a regular network or major market news team and hoping it will work....
But anyone else that is on air talent, well established in their career, thinking this was going to actually work????
All risk, no reward. If its successful, you’re no better off than before you got on CNN+ and odds are its not going to work....
You don’t have to wonder how people like that Thermos lady conned so many people... how anyone, let alone someone with enough actual authority to greenlight something like CNN+, believed that folks would honestly pay to watch CNN streaming in any major numbers, shows just how insanely foolish and stupid many folks in “leadership” roles are.
Merit based employment? Hardly....
Odd that the only person sacked so far is the CFO.... surely the CFO did not make the decision to launch this turd...
Exactly, it's basically for C listers or people who want small gigs, like those on FOX nation, Nancy Grace, Tomi Lahren, Lara Logan and for you prime timers to do some long form stuff. But frankly, Chriss Wallace was pretty poor, maybe he was about to be fired.
Feel good story of the day.
“Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace?”
looks like no one, pretty soon ...
“He [chris wallace] supposedly got a 9 million dollar contract.”
no wonder they fired CNN’s CFO ...
CNN+ did not even have CNN on it...!
It ought to be named “Who Is Chris Wallace?’’
“Would an appropriate response be: Go Woke, Go Broke !!”
++++
That would be a perfect response!
