'It will be a difficult time for everyone,' CNN EO Chris Licht told staff in an email Wednesday.

Cable news giant CNN will be hit by layoffs Wednesday and Thursday, part of continued cost-cutting by parent company Warner Bros. Discovery, which is trying to integrate the legacy WarnerMedia businesses and the Discovery businesses.

In a memo Wednesday morning, CNN CEO Chris Licht wrote that the channel will inform paid contributors Wednesday as part of a new reporting strategy, with full time employees being informed of their status on Thursday.

Karma baby!

I like the reassurance that they'll get the 2022 bonus - based on company performance. CNN sucks.

As is well known - Go woke = ?

Ho Ho Ho , Ha Ha Ha !!

Didn’t CNN just report Bidens economy is tops? Now this lay off due to bad economic outlook . Two tongued

Go woke, go broke!

go woke go broke,, cnn would not be missed

Please PLEASE tell me Lemmon head is on the out list.

Not FAKE NEWS

Please get rid of the LEMON!

They need to stop the Donald Trump obsession. Every time I put CNN on, it's something about Trump or Jan 6th and I change the channel. Find a new story to report on and lose some of the obnoxious 'analysts'.

I HOPE THATS NOT FAKE NEWS

oh yay, how not sad! finally some good news out of CNN

They should just play reruns of Mary Tyler Moore show as it's more real than their so called news.. might at least get 4- 5 people watching. Network is irrelevant

There’s openings at Drag Queen Story Hour

I don't see any problem. They can find new jobs. That's what Democrats said to Oilfield & Pipeline employees. The economy is great! 🤣

Good enough for those haters! Bye now

Best news of the week.

They made their bed… sucks to be stupid.

Hang out with coal and oil workers

Consumer confidence falls in November amid high inflation, layoffsAmerican consumers are entering the holiday season feeling gloomier about the economy amid ongoing high inflation and layoffs in the tech sector, depressing U.S. consumer confidence for the second straight month in November. Trumpty is responsible for all of it. If he hadn’t ignored Covid for over a year and acted irresponsibly in other ways, we would be better off now. Trumpty is the worst thing to happen to America. Oddly enough that is exactly what the stock market needs right now. Anything that will give the fed pause. Yet spending in amounts never seen before. Weird.

Closing arguments slated to begin in 2nd rape trial against Harvey Weinstein | CNNClosing arguments are expected Wednesday in the Los Angeles sexual assault trial against former movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, who faces two counts of forcible rape and five counts of sexual assault involving four women. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges. Remember when Harvey was the Democrats best friend? I wonder when Alec Baldwin will be arrested? Oh yeah, he's a Democrat. An entitled, rich, actor, who murdered one person and seriously injured another... and nothing happened to him. That is 'justice' under the Democrats. Amazing how these 'bullies' look in life now after being called out and prosecuted for their crimes.
