CNN’s new CEO is looking at the ratings (he must have an electron microscope), looking at the salaries of his overpaid anchors, and thinking it’s time to make some changes.
InTouch reports, “New CEO Mark Thompson is preparing ruthless cuts to remake the network as ratings plunge — leaving Anderson Cooper, Chris Wallace, Wolf Blitzer and Jake Tapper facing dates with the axman, a source says.”
This is what I found fascinating — replacing these liars and basement-rated losers with Megyn Kelly — someone who actually attracts a sizable audience:
Sources say [Thompson] has no use for the star system and the hefty salaries that come with it. He’s reportedly seeking to replace marquee names with talent who built their audiences on social media — including former FOX and NBC anchor Megyn Kelly, who has 1.72 million subscribers on YouTube.

Amen....I think that’s already happening!! They will HAVE to replace them with UGLY BLACKS to be equal to MSNBC!!! Ugliest pusses on TV! UGH! Ugly on the INSIDE EVEN MORE!!
I always thought that she was pretty good by modern journalistic standards.
Until for reasons unknown to me, she went off the rails and into an uncharted swamp over Trump.
I hope she’s found her way back to sanity.
When the ‘talent’ is not making you any money (low ratings), look for the talent that has proven to be higher-rated and money-makers.
But, isn’t that opposite to how democrat media works. Talent doesn’t matter, as long as they support and spout the democratic party line.
Oh, they mean “fired”? For a minute there I got my hopes up.
Now that is an interesting thought. CNN picking up Tucker Carlson.
Can i watch? Hope they use a dull ax.
He worked for them 20 years ago. Glenn Beck was on MSNBC. What a long, strange trip it's been.
They could hire catturd and Paul Joseph Watson.
Feel good story of the day.
Good bye is right and overdue, but CNN itself and cable in general are what’s really in the process of getting chopped, block and all.
I hope she doesn’t go to CNN and I don’t “think” she will because I think she likes her flexible schedule (i.e. kids) and because she is bound to be ok financially.
Mark Thompson, CNN CEO, is reportedly “thinking” about hiring her after he fires Tapper, Blitzer, Wallace and Cooper.
If CNN (or any other network) truly adopted fact based reporting, real investigative journalism, fair and truly balanced reporting of politics, and strict separation of editorial opinion from straight news reporting, it would dominate cable news within 6 months.
Imagine if it did all of the above and resurrected Senator William Proxmire’s “Golden Fleece” award for wasteful government spending. A daily “Golden Fleece” award would itself bring in millions of viewers if reported in a “just the facts” manner.
Well, bye CNN Hacks.
Ridding these three vermin is just a starting place. If CNN would report the truth without editorializing it with progressivism or ultraconservatism they could save the whole shebang. (Well I can dream about it.) The people want the truth.
You said it so much better than I did. Good post. I could not agree more.
It would be a happy day if Nicole Wallace was sent out to pasture. My goodness, that woman irritates me to no end and I don’t even watch CNN. All I see is short clips and that is enough.
Jake Tapper has been emasculated from spending so much time with liberal women at CNN.
Anderson is just a stupid drunk.
