OPINION | A growing narrative suggests the “old CNN” was unmitigatedly courageous and financially healthy, and that Chris Licht destroyed all that. It wasn’t, and he didn’t.
has been a problem for decades, but Trump complicated it. Mainstream media outlets could treat him like a normal politician, which enabled his lies and alienated progressives. Or they could resist him, which only expedited a middle America mass exodus from the MSM.In fact, data suggested moving to the center was a shrewd business move.
. The report showed that “CNN’s coverage of COVID-19 was the third leading cause of distrust in the network behind liberal bias and ‘the Chris Cuomo situation.’”...it seems increasingly likely that Licht’s fall from power will teach everyone in the MSM the wrong lessons.But bad ratings shouldn’t justify Licht’s firing—based on the criteria established by the very people who hired him in the first place.
I’m left thinking that it didn’t have to be this way—that there is still a way to create a cable news network that is trusted by serious people across the political spectrum.First, Licht has been criticized by some for firing a few prominent personalities. While there are many decent and highly qualified professionals at CNN, any attempt to seriously rebrand would demand more sweeping changes, both in terms of personnel and aesthetics.
