That Atlantic piece by Tim Alberta was damning. The article and interviews really painted a picture that Licht was out of his element and was a disaster. Amy Entelis, who is going to be temp CEO, has been running the CNN Originals division (Parts Unknown w/ Bordain, Stanley Tucci Italy, The Sixties, The Seventies, The Eighties, etc.) but I have no idea how she'll handle the news division and total operation of the company .

Hopefully this corrects the odd path they've been moving down. That being said, CNN has been kind of trash for long time now.

yeah i have no real sympathy for them. it's nice if they change--having one less right-wing rag out there is always good in my book--but i can't say that i care if they do, and i hope they continue to be irrelevant after the turn they've made.

Yeah, I'm big on the 24/7 news cycle being more detrimental than anything else. Hard agree
