CNN Will Reportedly Offer Kaitlan Collins the 9 p.m. Slot and a New Contract
Media Ite ^ | 5/10/23 | Michael Luciano

CNN CEO Chris Licht plans to offer Kaitlan Collins a new contract and the 9 p.m. time slot at the network, Puck News reported on Wednesday.

Dylan Byers reported the news just hours before Collins is set to host a 90-minute town hall in New Hampshire with former President Donald Trump. It is Trump’s first town hall of the 2024 presidential campaign and his first appearance on the network in years.

“Kaitlan’s offer is not contingent on her performance at tonight’s town hall, but, given the Trump X-factor, those 90 minutes have the potential to modify, accelerate, or stifle the arc of her career,” Byers said. “At the very least, her performance tonight will set the tone for a new Collins era at CNN, which, barring any f***-ups, will run at least through the 2024 presidential election.”

So she was basically at a job interview last night.

Successfully interrogate a Republican, you get your own show.

We'll see what happens.

I believe that is what is called “failing up” in the corporate world and in government.

The reviews are in:

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

CNN should be ashamed of themselves.

They have lost total control of this “town hall” to again be manipulated into platforming election disinformation, defenses of Jan 6th, and a public attack on a sexual abuse victim.

The audience is cheering him on and laughing at the host.

Yea, she didn’t really interrogate, she was a propagandist.

She spouted the media narrative, not the truth... which is all they really want from a “journalist”.

No 60 court cases didn’t rule against Trump.. 50 cases refused to hear the cases..

Pelosi is indeed in charge of capital security, and Trump did encourage peace, repeatedly.

Even in the focus group CNN had a propagandist “ask” the audience, when in fact he was just spewing propaganda.

CNN is a JOKE, ALL BROADCAST CABLE “NEWS” is a joke.

True NEWS is actually boring

X happened at y last night... Its not exciting or entertaining but that’s what NEWS is... We haven’t had anything remotely close to “NEWS” on TV in my lifetime and I’m more than 5 decades old now.

Did anyone else notice, that the town hall didn’t run the full 90 minutes scheduled? They ended it at ten minutes after the hour, a full 20 minutes ahead of schedule, then went to Jake Tapper and his panel to pick apart what was said.
