CNN's annual profits haven't sunk below $1 billion since 2016, the year Donald Trump beat Hilary Clinton in the presidential election and subsequently became a prominent figure in their commentary. "Ratings are down from their Trump-era heights across cable news, but declines at CNN are particularly pronounced," the Times noted.
They could act as the periscope for how China looks from the outside world's perspective. Beijing could use that. But Beijing would require CCP ideologues behind the mic. And no live feeds from outside.
Do you mean to say that Brian Stilted, Lemon and the others are not CCP ideologues? I find that a shocking revelation.
@FuzzyMarineVet they would do, so long as they are in China. Beijing is as paranoid as they come. Remember a political player they defend just angered Beijing with a visit to Taiwan.
By the way, does Brian really sound like that?
@eschatologyguy I heard him being interviewed by another host, CNN of course since no other network would have him, and yes, Brainless Stilted really does sound like that. IMHO none of the crew at CNN would survive a week in China. Chinese won't put up with their whiny games.
CNN has been shilling for the CCP for years. Let them beg Daddy Xi.
