Wow.

CNN *pays* to have the airports run their channel.

In Miami $150K a year!

Another example of media not concerned about a profit, but are concerned with pushing their agenda!

I would suggest that eight years ago....most passengers sitting there...would have been casually watching CNN (maybe 80-percent).

Today? I’d take a guess that more than fifty-percent have zero interest in CNN’s video feed at the airport, and likely to be using the free wi-fi to watch shows off their tab, laptop or smart-phone.

Sure they are concerned about the profit. They can charge their advertisers much more because many more people are watching their channel.
