The firing of former CNN CEO Chris Licht has led to “an aura of divisiveness' and signaled a return to liberal opinion, according to media watchdogs.
Dem media obsesses over Trumps travels, but wont show his speech... Biden hosts Juneteenth celebration... Raymond Arroyo has it all on The Ingraham Angle Seen and Unseen.
Licht said he wanted to tamp down the liberal, anti-Trump approach that defined his predecessor Zucker. But he faced internal , which came to a head when he offered former President Trump a chance to appear in a CNN town hall last month. Licht was fired last week after a little more than a year on the job, having lost the faith of both the newsroom and Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav.
"The talent comes across as victorious in a TV version of ‘Mean Girls’ against this supposedly threatening bully in Licht," Houck continued, noting Licht had never run a newsroom before in his career. "If anything, Licht's tenure showed us how bitter and thin-skinned so many CNN employees are to views outside their bubble. They have more than an aversion to outside criticism. Rather, it's treated like a deadly allergy," Houck said.
Tapper told CNN audiences on Tuesday night that it would be"dangerous" to carry a Trump speech live. Those comments came roughly one month after Licht’s infamous Trump town hall, in which the GOP presidential frontrunner was given a chance to reach a non-conservative audience. But those days appear to be dwindling, as Tapper also rebuked CNN producers for showing Trump with supporters at a Miami restaurant.
"The move to not air Trump's remarks live notably represented a departure from how the network handled Trump's post-New York arraignment speech. In that case, under former boss Chris Licht, CNN aired most of Trump's remarks," Darcy wrote. "Unfortunately for CNN, the lunatics have reclaimed control of the asylum," Elliott told Fox News Digital."Having outlasted Licht, Darcy was only too happy to celebrate CNN returning to its 24/7 [Trump Derangement Syndrome] programming, bragging in his newsletter about Tapper forgoing news in favor of extended anti-Trump sermonizing from CNN talking heads."
