Business in Front
Here’s a revealing behind the scenes look at CNN that was hidden in a movie review at Ain’t It Cool News :
I worked for CNN for 10 years, and there’s a line in there by Streep’s character about how her network was bought by a giant corporation in a merger back in 1991, and how the focus of the organization shifted from “reporting news” to “selling advertising time.” Well, I attended a meeting at CNN earlier this year in which the president of the entire news division actually said, while boasting about their steady increase in profits over the past several years, that ” Good journalism is good business.” Think about that.
Good journalism! That must be why they dumped Aaron Brown and hired Glen Beck and Nancy Grace.
