CNN's Kaitlan Collins named primetime anchor after Trump town hall
Axios ^ | 05-17-2023 | Erin Doherty

Posted on 05/17/2023 9:38:35 AM PDT by Responsibility2nd

NN announced Wednesday that Kaitlan Collins will serve as the network's anchor of a new 9pm show.

The big picture: Collins, 31, who moderated the recent contentious town hall with former President Trump, has ascended quickly at CNN. She previously served as the network's chief White House correspondent, the youngest person to hold the role, and most recently co-hosted "CNN This Morning."

Driving the news: Collins will begin anchoring the 9pm hour in June, CNN chairman Chris Licht wrote in a memo to staff Wednesday. The new program is set to officially launch later this summer.

Zoom out: Collins will depart from CNN This Morning, which will be led by Poppy Harlow and a rotation of CNN guest anchors, Licht wrote.

“In a hierarchy every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence.”

Was on site years ago at a Napa warehouse listening to the manager tell about promoting a worker just to get rid of the problem and pass it up to someone else...

And her supposed “partner/husband” was reportedly born in “Red River, USA”. Which approximates to a few hundred locations.

To me she appears to be KGB with a what looks like a Syrian or Egyptian handler.

CNN doubling down on failure. She failed at the Townhall so she gets a promotion. Who wants to watch whiny ass females and faggots? CNN has some real winners.

“What a laugh! Just mere days after Trump pwned her and CNN; they give this gal a prime time slot!”

The primary answer is the rise of environmental, social, and corporate governance, ESG, a term coined during a 2004 United Nations initiative (“ Who Cares Wins ”) that grades companies on social performance.

ESG was born from the idea that traditional capitalism needs to be replaced with a more caring, socially conscious capitalism that serves other “stakeholders.” And what started as “guidelines and recommendations” have become explicit standards set by ESG rating agencies that impose steep costs on publicly traded companies, especially those that don’t comply.

The thing is, companies are not jazzed about having to dance to the tune of a small cabal of central bankers and asset managers. A 2022 CNBC survey showed that while executives support ESG publicly, privately, they harbor serious concerns. Yet not playing ball is not an option.

“If a company has to do disclosures, and it has some executives who are ‘not into ESG,’ it should be thinking about the cost of not becoming more concerned,” Eileen Murray, a former executive of Bridgewater Associates, the largest hedge fund in the world, told CNBC .

F up, move up. That’s at least how we in the AF saw it. I personally know of two officers, who through their own neglect, crashed their respective helicopters and went on to be General Officers. One of them ruined two others lives by harming them mentally and physically.

Well I will say something nice. She’s an airhead but she’s HOT. That makes her a great improvement over the rest of the CNN staff winches. She dumb as a rock but not barf inducing.

I’m supervised CNN’s HR staff let her get this high on the latter, their standards up to now have only favored brain impaired ugly spinsters.

[she had half her facts wrong at DJT town hall.]

At CNN, that’s known as “truth” - works on their regular viewers

See “Russia, Russia, Russia” / Steele “Dossier”

My best friend who’s an attorney and I have a theory about this whole CNN townhall thing.

As we were watching the town hall at some point we both had a fleeting thought that it all just seemed contrived. Almost rehearsed. We were just discussing it on the phone this morning. Remember how it got so contentious and at one point Trump said Kaitlin Collins was a nasty person. Then at the end Trump shook her hand and said “you did a good job” And the way he said it was like he was talking to an employee.

Does anybody know who Kaitlin Collins is? Suddenly out of nowhere CNN hires a 28 year old nobody to do a hit job on Trump at a townhall? Seriously? OK here’s who Kaitlin Collins is. She was a writer for Tucker Carlson at Fox Snooze. Surprise, surprise, surprise. One of Donald Trump’s friends/donor buys CNN and starts getting rid of the worst of the worst. Then hires one of Tucker’s people to create a dustup for the public’s consumption. Its just too perfect.

Did you notice the constant panning of the Trump loving audience as they clapped and laughed while Trump basically ate her lunch? Just too perfect.

It looks to me like they are using CNN to bring down Fox. The game’s afoot Watson.
