News network CNN continues to circle the drain, with tumbling ratings, scandals, and a struggling streaming service that’s off to a rough start. A former CNN producer says it’s a “sorry state of affairs.”
“A longtime media industry executive who previously worked as a producer for CNN told Fox News Digital that damage Zucker did to the brand is ‘deep and permanent’ after the former executive pushed the once-non-partisan network to the left,” Fox News reports.
“It’s a sorry state of affairs that when CNN should be shining for its Ukraine coverage, it instead is mired in the embarrassing launch of a suboptimal product like CNN+. Ratings are terrible despite the once-in-a-decade war news that CNN is supposedly made for. We’re now seeing the deep and permanent damage Jeff Zucker did to the once storied CNN brand when he pulled it far left and made it about himself vs Trump,” the media insider said. “Viewers don’t turn to CNN for serious news anymore.”
“In an attempt to restore CNN’s credibility, new boss Chris Licht is expected to attempt to pivot back to straight news after Zucker allowed the network to take on a partisan, liberal approach that has struggled to attract viewers during the Biden era,” Fox reports.
Let’s see how that works out for them.
