predicted, a “gut punch,” but the question for staffers — and viewers — is what will happen next.
An exit that got of social media buzz was that of political analyst Chris Cillizza, lured from the The Washington Post five years ago, as he has had authored the popular blog The Fix. He took that to CNN, in what then-CNN chief Jeff Zucker said was mean to add “more destination bylines to our digital properties,” per the Post back then. Cillizza took his signature quick spin to CNN with The Point, a newsletter and podcast.
In a staff memo, Licht said that the network would rely more on CNN’s own journalists rather than outside voices for the analysis. Those who remain as paid contributors will be “subject-matter experts that expand and diversify the viewpoints we bring our audience.” He recalled that when he was executive VP at CBS News 25 years ago, the network went through a round of layoffs, and the focus turned to what the network did best, including“Winning is what brings back morale,” Klein said. “When the hearty band of survivors believes they can still kick ass, it lifts spirits immensely. They can still kick ass and they will, and that will revive the fortunes of the company.
