Licht shared some thoughts on his vision for CNN in a conversation last week on a Zoom call from his office in New York. If we’re doing a broad-ranging interview, then of course you’re going to ask those questions. And I don’t want CNN to be a place where you’re going to have such a combative experience that you go fundraise off of it. It’s all about news on cable, not cable news, and trying to differentiate ourselves from our perceived-by-media-writers competition of MSNBC and Fox. There’s a major advertiser that pulled all of their advertising off of CNN who is now willing to come back.
