CNN+: A BOMB OF EPIC PROPORTIONS
POSTED ON APRIL 12, 2022 BY JOHN HINDERAKER IN CNN

CNN+ launched last month, but has been in the works for a while. Wikipedia says:

CNN+ is a video streaming service that launched on March 29, 2022. It is an offshoot of the CNN cable television news network. The new digital streaming service was announced on July 19, 2021, as “the evolution of video news and the start of a new era for the company.”
​

The new streaming service got some publicity when Chris Wallace left Fox News to join it. However, the numbers so far are grim:

The embattled CNN cable network looks to have another situation on its hands: the underwhelming launch of its new streaming service, CNN+.

The service’s total number of daily viewers has yet to surpass 10,000, according to reports — fueling speculation that the network’s new parent company, Discovery WarnerMedia, could be pushed into slashing costs even as CNN+ tries to get off the ground.
​

Fewer than 10,000 viewers a day? For perspective, that is a small fraction of what we get here on Power Line, and we have no costs other than $600 a month for web hosting. The red ink at CNN must be knee-deep.

Generally, I hate to see businesses fail. But in this case, it couldn’t happen to a more deserving network.​

 

people who sit at home watching Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, etc all day are just weird to me



I understand Fox News maintaining ratings, they have a dedicated cult

CNN is literal sleep-aid…visual melatonin

haven’t seen 1 second of CNN since the 5 minutes I had them on during election night, and I have never in my life flipped the channel to Fox News…if people weren’t posting what is being said on there, I would have absolutely no clue

 

maybe Elon Musk will buy CNN+ next

 

a blue check has confirmed

 

Cable News is dead. Print Media is dead. All that remains are podcasts and tweets.

 

Not surprising. More honest, relevant and nerd girls.

 

More like CNN minus...am i right..
