It seems CNN liftest liberals are in panic mode as MAJOR changes are about to happen in their network. Their clown shows will soon be over as their new guy wants actual news that focuses on the real stories – not some garbage fake twisted news.
Wayne Dupree added that (unconfirmed) reports allege MANY current talent and staff will probably get the boot. I have a feeling Stelter, Lemon, Acosta, and Cuomo are anxious right now.
David Zaslav, the president and chief executive officer of Discovery Inc said in a statement via Deadline, “I’m going to be very hands-on, as, for me, this deal is kind of a dream, surreal opportunity. These are brands that I have admired and loved, built by people I have admired and loved over the past 30 years.”
It was also reported that Discovery and WarnerMedia parent AT&T expects the $43 billion mergers to close by mid-2022. Zaslav declined to reveal specific organizational plans when asked by Auletta whether he planned to install a deputy to look after the company’s vast studio and network operations.
This means serious handling and accuracy as he sees Fox as an advocate network instead of network news.
“I think Fox News is much more of an advocacy network than a news network, and that’s the business I’m in, with Food Network and HGTV. Those are advocacy networks,” he added.
This only sparks many scoops on the internet and here are a few:
Scoop: CNN is going back to a 100% news channel. A “good number” of the “talent/staff” will be let go to align to that new mission. David Zaslav Vows To Be “Very Hands-On” And LA-Based In Running Warner Bros Discovery.
He has to do something dramatic. If merged today ‘Shark Week’ would eclipse every show on @cnn by a mile.
Another option being floated is replacing poorly performing shows with documentaries. One of the bright spots of Zucker’s reign has been Docs.
Also. Like a cruise liner sinking, watch the ‘current’ CNN comms dept and mgmt deny this right until the end.
