(9,984 posts)... read the article... maybe Jake will be good in prime time - I'm not sure. They don't have a lot of resources. One name I recall I did like watching - Brianna Keilar. But they gave her a co-host and it doesn't work... I'd give her the solo prime time shot. I think CNN needs a replacement up top - in who decides this stuff!

Apparently any mention of CNN now sets off a strange and evidence free knee jerk response in more than a few.
CNN is great, watch all the time!

(68,788 posts)bended knee to offer to MAGA help with its destruction.. Did you see the leaked GOP plans if they win Congress? Those would be hugely unpopular. Thus, it appears to me, that they think future elections can be rigged and they won't have to worry about voter's opinions. CNN has chosen to be a part of that effort IMHO. Thus, they are dead to me.

(68,788 posts)CNN doesn't value us clearly. Why would i watch what is essentially propoganda?

Funny thing is, Yoo's opinion on the Mar a Lago docs has been virtually identical to Conway's.

(27,460 posts)I watched his commentary during the hearings. He was good then.
I havent watched him since the switch, so I dont have an opinion on how right hes gone. IIRC he used to be with Salon years ago, hardly a RW rag.
