CNN To Go MAGA, Just Like Practically Every Other Cable News Outlet
From Wonkette -
Many of us have held out hope that we would only have to get through the next three years of Trumpism — maybe even looking, desperately, at the the cracks in MAGA, the way some of the bro-y podcasters have started to turn on him over the way ICE behaved in Minnesota, the fights between Candace Owens and TPUSA, and so forth. Thinking of all the people now spending more than half their paychecks on health insurance they probably can’t even use. Scouring the LeopardsAteMyFace subreddit for signs of defectors.
But that hope is a little harder to cling to right now with the news that Netflix suddenly backed out of its bid to buy Warner Brothers Discovery networks, ceding the media conglomerate to MAGA billionaires Larry Ellison, his son David, and their Paramount Skydance network. Under the Netflix deal, the streamer would have just acquired HBOMax and the Discovery networks, while CNN would have been made independent. But the Ellison’s deal includes the whole shebang, giving them an incredible amount of control over United States media.
It’s not good. Netflix was expected to counter Paramount Skydance’s latest bid ($31-per-share, up from Netflix’s proposed $30-per-share) , but on Thursday night, they announced that they’d given up.
The mood at CNN right now is “not good.” Journalists are not looking forward to their new MAGA overlords, or to potentially being under the thumb of Bari Weiss, who has turned CBS News into a straight up disaster.

CNN will be bleeding even more viewers who don’t want to watch the 
new and improved fox like news! It will be the final nail in the coffin for CNN.
