CNN was counting on 2million + suckers - only got 10,000

CNN executives, with help from consulting firm McKinsey, originally expected to bring in around 2 million subscribers in the U.S.

Fewer than 10,000 people are using CNN+ on a daily basis two weeks into its existence, sources tell CNBC, casting doubt on the future of the app following the combination of Discovery & WarnerMedia.

The paltry audience casts doubt on the future of the application following the recently completed combination of Discovery and WarnerMedia into Warner Bros. Discovery.

Dramatic cuts are expected for CNN+ in response to the subscription service's low adoption rate, two sources tell Axios.

Glenn Greenwald: Even with a major war ongoing, the continued disappearance of MSNBC and CNN's audience is extreme and rapid. The number of viewers under 55 watching MSBNC's prime-time shows is barely 100k or less. These are mid-level YouTube numbers.



which corporate geniuses decided the way to save CNN from the fact that nobody wants to watch their hosts for free is to make people pay to watch those same hosts spout the same trite, partisan, superficial bullshit?

It's even worse for CNN than Axios suggested:

"Fewer than 10,000 people are using CNN+ on a daily basis....the paltry number casts doubt on the future of the application."

CNN's disinformation is bad for the country and its failure is therefore good.

Karma !!!

SOURCE: Chris Wallace is "having daily breakdowns" over the "miserable launch" of @CNNplus. Wants a "CNN show or is threatening to walk" they go on. "He is having staffers count how many times a day his promo is playing"
... Crikey! ... so sorry to hear that.

Couldn't happen to a better fellow! ...

And the hits keep coming for CNN

CNN managed to keep a lid on the worst of the Cuomo scandal…until now. Watch:

AXIOS - SCOOP: CNN+ looks doomed.

Warner Bros. Discovery has suspended all external marketing spend for CNN+ and has laid off CNN's longtime CFO as it weighs what to do with it moving forward.

Chris Wallace can suck my Libertarian dick, fucker showed his true colors in his Trump interviews and in the debate.

CNN in all forms is on life support, so is MSNBC, without their primetime "Wanna be a guy" host not working.

Fuckem all.
... Maybe TRUMP will perchase one o' those flailing networks
and then create "Trump-News"

... I'd surely watch it all the day... Prolly be a Top 10 show
- like "The Apprentice" when it was on.
