One more reason NOT to watch CNN


In case you really needed another...


CNN/US names new president
By Mark Jurkowitz, Globe Staff | November 23, 2004

In a move that appears aimed at energizing CNN's prime-time lineup, the cable news outlet announced yesterday that Jonathan Klein, a former executive vice president of CBS News, will become president of CNN/US beginning the middle of next month. He replaces Princell Hair, the former executive vice president of CNN/US, who was named senior vice president of program and talent development for the CNN News Group.

1. Please explain
How is this Klein dude bad? The article doesn't provide any hints. On the surface, CBS News is a whole lot better than CNN, so perhaps CNN is trying to learn something?

2. CNN has been in a downward spiral since Ted Turner sold it.


They are obsessed with FNN's audience, and have become FoxLite.

Journalism out the window with those clowns. 5 Chiefs in as many years is a very bad sign.
