CNN CEO Speaks Up Against the Misinformed Left

Not the Beast; The Daily Beat

Left’s absurd amount of baseless vitriol leaves CNN chief stunned

"CNN’s newest CEO, Chris Licht, claims he’s been shocked by the amount of what he describes as “uninformed vitriol” the left-leaning crowd directed at him for trying to shift the network’s editorial direction. 

Licht has been the target of more than a dozen liberal rants ever since he took the company over in May this year.

"He’s made more than a few changes to the network’s staffing and programmatic measures, earning him a lot of buzz for taking on a centrist stance.

"Licht shook up the snowflakes from the very start.

"He decided to change CNN’s morning lineup, pushing Don Lemon, an avid Trump critic, out of his primetime slot and into the “CNN This Morning” show, alongside Kaitlyn Collins and Poppy Harlow.

"Any reasonable person will see that this is both due to the chemistry of the hosts, as well as the fact anti-Trump content has become so unoriginal that critics like Lemon and Colbert were recycling stories just to stay relevant.

"Aside from putting Lemon in a more fitting spot on the channel, Licht also let go of several other Trump critics from the network; those being Chris Cillizza and Brian Stelter, whose content never had any substance, to begin with.". . .
