Chris Licht out at CNN

Maybe the racist strategy against white cons wasn’t as profitable as they hoped.

 

The strategy they tried was actually trying to appeal to Republicans lol

 

Long read, but this is pretty comprehensive:

Yea, crazy

 

Now that is a funny ass joke.
On paper perhaps.

 

“I have known and admired Chris for more than 15 years and strongly believe he is the best person to lead CNN Global as part of Warner Bros. Discovery,” David Zaslav, incoming CEO of Warner Bros.

Licht wasn't doing what he was doing on his own. He was doing what his bosses wanted.

 

Thank God. He made so many stupid moves to appeal to conservatives who think Fox is too liberal. Out with the bad ideas.

Bring back solid news reporting that isn’t afraid to be attacked by the right for being truthful. I’ll start watching again maybe.

 

Nothing says out of touch with reality more than this post.

 

Be partisan and attack, ridicule the pubs and I’ll watch.
Great take.

 

Out of touch with libbie news. Yeah, ya got me.

 

I think wgb is saying has merit. Licht’s strategy appears to have been to change CNN’s reputation by appealing to conservatives. It appears not to have gone well.

 

ETTDD

 

That's literally what they thought they were doing though, because these morons think its about liberals vs conservatives. They were just like CNN is viewed as too liberal, need more conservatives. That's their thought process on "bias! "

 

Very telling that your statement says solid news reporting and to not be afraid to be attacked by the right. If it is solid truthful, they shouldn't be afraid to be attacked by either side and should expect it!!

 

Zazlav sucks too. He came over from Discovery Channel in that Warner/ATT spinoff/merger with Discovery. He’s the one i think most responsible for ruining HBO (excuse me… the streaming is called MAX now ).

 

Not remotely true. The mainstream media reported Biden won. That was attacked by right wingers. Nice try.

 

Licht might be most remembered for his Lemon drop.
