CNN is Trump TV
/
The New Yorker media critic Ken Auletta said what everyone already knows.
CNN focuses almost entirely on Donald Trump.
On a panel at the Advertising Week New York conference Aluetta not only criticized CNN, but praised Fox News anchor Bret Baier, when comparing prime time news coverage on the two networks.
“CNN has for years claimed that its brand was ‘we cover the world’, and in fact you have more reporters around the world than any other television network, certainly in the U.S.,” he said, directing his comment toward CNN’s Romans. “Maybe the BBC exceeds you, but nevertheless it’s one of their strengths.”
“But yet if you watch CNN from four o’clock to eleven o’clock at night – it’s the all Trump network,” he said, evincing some exasperation. “And… what happened?”
“I mean I get more news about the Middle East on Bret Baier at six o’clock than I do at CNN,” he added as salt on the wound.
