Discussion:
Tim Alberta / @timalberta: I spent stretches of the past year shadowing Chris Licht, the new boss at CNN, who harbored ambitions of rehabilitating the journalism industry. This is an account — based on interviews with nearly 100 of his own reporters — of what went wrong. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Dylan Byers / Puck: Zaz Brings in the Pain Sponge
Morgan Stephens / @morganstephensa: I love CNN, still. And I still believe it is one of the best in news. That is because of the dedicated journalists and staff working there. It will survive this. But my heart can't help but to break a little seeing the spiral.
@jbouie: licht seems like a caricature of a rich guy centrist whose deepest belief is that nothing he believes could be unreasonable https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Mehdi Hasan / @mehdirhasan: As a colleague just noted to me, a lot of Tom Wambsgans energy from this piece https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: The consensus, among people who knew @TimAlberta's piece was coming, is that it's much “worse” than they expected. Licht confided in Alberta the way a client confides in a therapist. Some CNN staffers are shocked.
Tara Setmayer / @tarasetmayer: Excellent reporting on CNN @TimAlberta Brutal. Worth the read. https://twitter.com/...
Edward Wong / @ewong: For those who miss Succession, there are these details like this in the Atlantic story on Chris Licht and the power struggle at CNN. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ... [image]
Michael Weiss / @michaeldweiss: The CEO of CNN comes across in this profile as a weird mix of Kendall and Tom and the corporate dividend is pretty much as you'd expect: https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
@ijbailey: You best believe there were serious journalists inside @CNN telling them it was a horrific idea for obvious reasons. But those voices were likely ignored, if not belittled, as just being “woke” journalists who are “liberal” and don't want standards. 7/
Rick Wilson / @therickwilson: Sitting in the Air France Lounge at DeGaulle reading this absolutely riveting piece by one of the greatest observers of the current moment. Read it. Then read it again. https://twitter.com/...
@ijbailey: The only logical reason to do so would be to appease extremist Republicans who wanted to downplay such an important event - including a rightwing billionaire major shareholder who said CNN should be more like Fox News. 3/
@jeradwalker: If someone tells you they're going to “save journalism” run as far away as possible. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Kasim Reed / @kasimreed: I see what you did there, @mehdirhasan. Nicely done! https://twitter.com/...
@edmundlee: The most surprising thing wasn't this: “Everyone at CNN had long ago come to realize that Licht was playing for an audience of one. It didn't matter what they thought, or what other journalists thought, or even what viewers thought. What mattered was what David Zaslav thought.”
David Darmofal / @david_darmofal: Quite the article. Chris Licht comes across as an incredibly small person (calling Robert Reich bc he's upset at a critical Reich Substack post, threatening to “destroy” @kurtbardella) & his & Zaslav's epic failure seems borne from white male privilege. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Jason Colavito / @jasoncolavito: The Atlantic's massive feature on Chris Licht and CNN has a lot to unpack, but most striking is what it leaves out: In all the discussion of personality and politics, no one ever talks about news beyond commenting on politics. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
@vanityfair: In case it wasn't clear, CNN purposely stocked the Trump town hall audience with MAGA diehards. https://vntyfr.com/UmBBFPZ
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: The transition, if one can call it that, from Zucker to Licht was...bumpy. Unnecessarily so. Licht candidly admits he should have handled it differently: “I should have just sort of slowly come in, without making these grand pronouncements of how different I was going to be.” [image]
@darth: chris licht is looking to create a social forum for truth a “Truth Social” if u will https://twitter.com/...
Jake Nelson / @jakenelsonmn: Really well-written piece. Kind of makes Licht out to be the kind of character in a tragedy who can't see what's coming when it's really obvious to the audience. and Zaslav is just an amazingly omnipresent blight on humanity, huh https://twitter.com/...
Wesley / @wesleylowery: in which Don Lemon's white colleagues condescendingly explain to him that he should have been less angry and emotional about the president of the United States spending years trying to get him and his colleagues killed and overthrowing democracy https://www.theatlantic.com/ ... [image]
Ariel Zilber / New York Post: CNN boss Chris Licht's days could be numbered after Warner Bros. Discovery names COO
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: What now? Well, tonight Puck's @dylanbyers reported that “in the last 48 hours, it has become clear, based on conversations with well-placed sources, that Zaslav's once steadfast support” for Licht “has wavered considerably.” https://puck.news/...
Ray Pride / @raypride: CNN's strategic brain: Licht on Licht https://www.theatlantic.com/ ... [image]
Jon Allsop / @jon_allsop: After Licht took over, I wrote for @CJR that I liked his plan to tone down performative bombast but thought he risked throwing the baby out with the bathwater—also dialing down sharp coverage of the right because some *perceive* it as bombast... https://www.cjr.org/...
David Simon / @aodespair: Have read all and at this moment, I am confounded by a vague sense of sympathy for this man. Then I remember that astounding Trumpfest that was this mook's CNN town hall and, no, no, I am back to a fixed, generalized contempt for him and his work. https://twitter.com/...
Keith Olbermann / @keitholbermann: 3/♾️ From the start (BTW forgive me - link: https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...) Licht doesn't understand what the American journalism he professes to cherish, MUST do: It MUST advocate. It MUST advocate for democracy And ADVOCATING is not partisanship🤦🏼 ♂️ The shit HAS hit the fan, Dummy [image]
Jay Rosen / @jayrosen_nyu: Monster profile of CNN's CEO, Chris Licht, in @TheAtlantic. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ... More than anything else, this right here seems to be the heart of it. By “it” I mean Chris Licht's belief system, and the conclusions that have led him to his current course in steering CNN. [image]
@ijbailey: This profile reveals something I wrote about recently, the growing tendency of top news execs and editors to take on an anti-woke mindset while deluding themselves that they are the ones being “objective”. It's clear that applies to Licht. 1/ https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Peter Kafka / @pkafka: CNN gave the Atlantic enormous access for this story. Not what they were expecting in return. https://twitter.com/...
Sarah Gray / Insider: CNN apparently removed the words ‘sexual abuse’ from a chyron ahead of Trump town hall, The Atlantic reports in bombshell profile of network head Chris Licht
Edmund Heaphy / @edmundheaphy: The most obvious conclusion from this profile of the CNN boss is that he kind of has the right idea, but he is woefully inexperienced and totally unprepared to lead a major news organisation https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Gary Baum / The Hollywood Reporter: CNN CEO Chris Licht Exposed: Five Takeaways From Bombshell Profile
@ijbailey: My bottom line: Licht has taken the Bill Maher/Joe Rogan road while deluding himself into believing he and those who think like them are the true “objective” journalists, and those who think differently must be countered and resisted at all costs. END
Steve Schmidt / @steveschmidtses: The most “trusted” name in news has a “Titanic” Captain Queeg problem. Holy moly! https://twitter.com/...
Clay Travis / @claytravis: This profile of CNN head Chris Licht is an incredibly interesting read. It's super long, but I have a few thoughts. 1. I agree with a ton of Licht quotes. I didn't expect that. 2. The crafting of the story, the author perspective that is, is devastating. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Jennifer Bowers Bahney / Mediaite: 5 Biggest Revelations From The Atlantic's Bombshell Profile of Chris Licht's CNN
Richard Deitsch / @richarddeitsch: The definitive piece about today's CNN, how its U.S. programming gets shaped, and how the PR apparatus works for very wealthy people. https://twitter.com/...
Will Sommer / @willsommer: There are some lol moments in the new @TimAlberta profile of CNN boss Chris Licht, including Licht reading about himself in Puck, Licht getting ripped at his personal trainer, and Licht unhappy with Don Lemon's menswear decisions. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ... [image]
@froomkin: Helluva lede, on Chris Licht being totally outplayed by Trump: https://www.theatlantic.com/ ... [image]
Julia Alexander / @loudmouthjulia: It feels disingenuous at best to have a conversation about the state of news and not talk about what happens as the cable bundle erodes faster than analysts expected, Google Search growth completely stalls, text-based social media decreases, and news consumption habits change.
Jon Allsop / @jon_allsop: Boy oh boy, this did not disappoint. Kudos to @TimAlberta. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
David Gura / @davidgura: CNN's mission, according to the network's CEO, from @TimAlberta's profile in @TheAtlantic (https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...): [image]
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: David Zaslav declined to speak with @TimAlberta on the record, but he did send a statement. @TheAtlantic didn't include it, so I asked WBD PR for it, and here it is: “CNN is a very important business for us, and, in fact, we believe that nothing we do is more important...” (1/3)
@ijbailey: The author said this: “The media had every obligation to scrutinize him, interview him, and, yes, platform him.” That's a dodge. The question wasn't to cover Trump or not, but how. I dealt with that for @niemanfdn 5/ https://niemanreports.org/...
Sarah Scire / @sarahscire: anyway, highly recommend this profile by @TimAlberta — easily the best thing I've read on Licht and CNN https://www.theatlantic.com/ ... [image]
Jennifer Rubin / @jrubinblogger: YIKES: Lemon was a disaster on the morning show. (Licht finally fired him in April.) Collins wasn't better co-anchoring in New York ...Licht had been fixated on the negative press about him. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
@rafat: The *least* interesting story in media, according to...well, just me: whatever the fuck is happening at CNN. No desire to read anything about it, same as no desire ever watch CNN.
@danieljbatt: “Everyone at CNN had long ago come to realize that Licht was playing for an audience of one. It didn't matter what they thought, or what other journalists thought, or even what viewers thought. What mattered was what David Zaslav thought.” https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Ilya Lozovsky / @ichbinilya: this is pretty fascinating, and a frustrating read. the amount of work we do, how hard we try to do really great journalism in the public interest, and the resources we do it with ... and this is what the money gets thrown at. https://twitter.com/...
Diane Ravitch / @dianeravitch: Terrific article about CNN's identity crisis https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
@ijbailey: One of many gems: “A few weeks into his tenure, Licht instructed his producers to downplay the first hearing of the January 6 committee...” Why would he tell a news outfit to downplay a committee looking into why there was a violent attempted insurrection in our capital? 2/
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: Some insiders are cheering Don Lemon's comments bemoaning “people” (Licht) “Monday-morning-quarterbacking” CNN's coverage of the Trump presidency. “You have to remember the time that we were in.” [image]
Joan Esposito / @joanespositochi: Can't imagine that Licht can survive an evisceration like this. Wow. https://twitter.com/...
Chris Parker / @crs_1ne: this is a terrific piece by @TimAlberta that essentially reinforces everything you probably deduced about @CNN what a garbage fire. Betting it's sold for parts shortly after the election, 18 months of so from now, it's ratings utter trash. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
@ijbailey: Maybe the most powerful evidence of his anti-woke journalism mindset is that he's a favorite of Frank Luntz, the man who taught Republicans how to lie to America better and more effectively. 28/
@ijbailey: The goal should not be to attract more Republican viewers, but to ensure that you are doing top-notch journalism without fear or favor. In this era, sometimes that means you will have to do one or the other, a truth news execs don't want to grapple with. 9/
@froomkin: .@TimAlberta sees massive failures in execution. I think that's letting Licht off easy. https://twitter.com/...
Julia Alexander / @loudmouthjulia: This feels purposely obtuse. Far more concerning is lack of foresight or conversation about what news consumption is in a post-linear, post-cable, post-social media world, & how do you position CNN ~now~ for what that may be so you're not chasing whatever it's forced to become. [image]
Mehdi Hasan / @mehdirhasan: Inside the Meltdown at CNN - The Atlantic Wow. Your #mustread of the day https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: Yesterday, @TimAlberta notes, WBD “announced the installation of CNN's new chief operating officer, David Leavy, a Zaslav confidant whose hiring fueled talk of an imminent power struggle—and potentially, the beginning of the end for Licht.” https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Sarah Scire / @sarahscire: out loud? in front of a journalist?! [image]
John Rogers / @jonrog1: This is not just a really nice piece of writing, but its fascinating in revealing that Licht has this idea of “truth” that seems virtuous but is, in fact, childlike. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Mark Harris / @markharrisnyc: This profile of CNN's Chris Licht is brutal—a relentlessly observant eye-level portrait of the wrong man for the job struggling to come off as the right man for the job, convincing absolutely nobody except a boss who himself seems allergic to criticism. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Nicolle Wallace / @nicolledwallace: Wow re Licht: “Every move he made, big programming decisions and small tactical maneuvers alike, seemed to backfire. By most metrics, the network under Licht's leadership had reached its historic nadir.” Inside the Meltdown at CNN - The Atlantic https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Jeff Pearce / @jeffpropulsion: I realize many of you Americans think the world revolves around you (it doesn't), but while you're at last questioning how awful CNN's domestic coverage is, maybe it's time for you to reflect how they've been fucking lying to you about Africa FOR YEARS. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
@ijbailey: How do you end up with a “townhall” filled with rabid Trump supporters who were told they could cheer but not boo Trump in a scene that was more like a Trump rally than a journalistic endeavor? Through an anti-woke journalism mindset, that's how. 6/
Sarah Scire / @sarahscire: 🚩 “Licht had accepted the position with ambitions to rehabilitate the entire news industry, telling his peers that Trump had broken the mainstream media and that his goal was to do nothing less than ‘save journalism.’” https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: Zaslav: “We set a high bar for ourselves and while we know that it will take time to complete the important work that's underway, we have great confidence in the progress that Chris and the team are making and share their conviction in the strategy.” (3/3)
Sharon Waxman / @sharonwaxman: The tone-deaf response to the Trump town hall is a fatal mistake. Licht has to listen, not live in a bunker mentality. Zaslav is not helping, as he urges Licht on with the supposed vision of the “long-term.” But a lot of loss can & is happening b4 any long term can be delivered.
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: Where I'm coming from: I have known Chris Licht and David Zaslav for 15+ years. Jeff Zucker for 10+ years. I have reported on, interviewed, lunched with all three. I was at CNN for nearly nine years. Licht fired me last August - but so graciously that we've joked about it since.
Josie Duffy Rice / @jduffyrice: this article is incredible https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Evan DeSimone / @mediaevan: This feels like the exact type of thinking that Musk had around Twitter moderation. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ... [image]
Anna Peele / @bananapeele: This is an unbelievable portrait of a man who doesn't understand or at least can't acknowledge) the position he's in or his own role in being there https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Kara Swisher / @karaswisher: While some are calling this a hit piece, it's not. @TimAlberta has pulled off a real classic by simply observing with intelligent questions and appropriate pushback and incisive yet unfussy writing. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Sharon Waxman / @sharonwaxman: But the whole pieces makes me wonder if this was why Zaslav top lieutenant David Leavy was just moved to run CNN global. This suggests that he's nervous about the heat Chris Licht is taking, and he needs a trusted hand in there day to day. ## @thewrap #CNN
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: “We have the best journalists in the world at CNN reporting the news wherever it happens,” Zaslav continued, “and we aspire to be the news organization most trusted by viewers globally.” And then, at the end of the statement, he expressed support for Licht and the team... (2/3)
Reed F. Richardson / @reedfrich: Hard to see how journalists at CNN can feel confident about their network's news principles when its CEO has so willingly violated his own espoused commitment to standing up for facts and the truth. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ... [image]
Peter Kafka / @pkafka: Three in-bound texts from pr pals, all with the same question: Why did the CNN PR people agree to the disastrous Atlantic Chris Licht piece? Answer: The PR people are always a reflection of their boss.
Isaac Chotiner / @ichotiner: It's almost impossible to explain how crazy this story is, and how many absolutely bonkers scenes there are. Incredible stuff. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Dan Diamond / @ddiamond: Tim is such a master at setting scene, crafting a narrative and (clearly) getting people to open up to him. An incredible read, from the morning gym workouts and the Trump town hall to the exquisite kicker. https://twitter.com/...
@ijbailey: Licht said this to Don Lemon after a morning segment on slavery: “I don't want to be preachy in the morning, but I do want to hold people accountable,” he said. I can't tell you how many times I've heard don't be “preachy” from white editors when I've written about race. 16/
Gady Epstein / @gadyepstein: The part of this story where Licht's personal trainer becomes his last credible advocate lol https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
@deggans: Wow. This profile in the Atlantic of CNN CEO Chris Licht is compelling, and not just for the details it has on how the cable newschannel's town hall with Trump turned out so one-sided. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...
Brian Stelter / @brianstelter: One of the biggest surprises in the story is that Zaslav declined, repeatedly, for months, to sit for an on-the-record interview with @TimAlberta to talk about CNN. “This was Zaslav's last chance to make the case for Licht's leadership—and his own... Zaslav refused.”
Sharon Waxman / @sharonwaxman: Re CNN: So many interesting inside nuggets in this @TheAtlantic piece on Chris Licht, and it tracks fully with what I've know and observed up to now. Licht has a strong sense of journalistic mission, but his mistakes are being propped up by the need to please Zaslav and Malone
Farhad Manjoo / @fmanjoo: Lol [image]
Peter Kafka / @pkafka: Ps CNN/Licht did try an access profile before - with NYT last fall - that worked well for them: https://www.nytimes.com/...
Steve Lichtman / @stevel3000: Epic. Paints picture of Chris Licht as Tom Wambsgans-like pain sponge for David Zaslav. https://www.theatlantic.com/ ...

Dominick Mastrangelo / The Hill: CNN CEO Chris Licht says boss David Zaslav ‘has my back’
Kayla Cobb / The Wrap: CNN Head Chris Licht Knew Trump Town Hall Crowd Was Filled With MAGA Supporters, Told Trump to ‘Have Fun’
Ann Lipton / @annmlipton@esq.social: I'm just a law professor, not a media critic or a business strategist, but if you ask me, the fundamental problem here is that billionaires - like John Malone - haven't the faintest clue what most of America wants or needs. Even if they act in good faith, their judgment is fatally skewed. …
