CNN supposedly decided to cut down on its partisan lunacy after QT forced media to pay more attention to PROFIT. /// Update: And CNN fired Don Lemon today after leaving him in purgatory for a while. Nice symmetry!
Now Fox is moving in the same direction, forced by a lawsuit about the lunatic “election” crap. They’ve eliminated Tucker Carlson, leader of the Trump gang.
I haven’t watched TV since 2011, and rarely check the websites of the partisans, so I don’t know if the changes are real. I still haven’t seen any serious Machiavellian reporting from big media.
Still, it’s interesting to see the Fairness Doctrine being enforced by the CUSTOMERS and CORPORATIONS instead of the previous government enforcement. This is a real change in customer and corporate taste.
Most interesting take: Berenson, who claims to know Carlson well, thinks Carlson is getting ready to run for President. So it’s more of a quit than a fire.
