CNN's Zucker: Trump has made American journalism great again
By Avery Anapol - 11/30/17 10:30 AM EST


CNN president Jeff Zucker said Thursday that President Trump has “made American journalism great again.”

Speaking at Business Insider’s Ignition conference, Zucker said that he is proud of the quality of journalism coming out of news outlets like CNN, the New York Times and the Washington Post during the Trump presidency.

“The one thing I know for sure is that Donald Trump has made American journalism great again,” he said.

Zucker said that since Trump was elected, the network has seen an unprecedented “bump” in television and digital audience levels.

“CNN’s been around for 37 years, this is the most watched year in the history of CNN on television,” he said. “We’d be at the top if there were global rankings.”

“We could never have anticipated the audience level that we’re seeing now and the interest in both our television and digital properties,” Zucker added.
