In which our media columnist, Michael Wolff, makes his view of CNN very clear:
CNN, the news network that nobody likes, or watches or can fix, is looking for a new CEO.
Even if you actually believed you could fix it, it’s far from clear that anybody would want you to. Although the network is an embarrassment to everybody who works there, as well as to the industry as a whole, it still, confoundedly, makes tons of money — in part because it is so unfocused and ineffectual.
It’s the dim and pointless yin to MSNBC and Fox, the sharp and pointed yang. CNN is every cable system’s beard. You couldn’t have the rancorous networks people really watch without the cover of the middle-of-the-road pallid one whose ratings sink ever further.
