In Defense of Chris Licht

To say that Chris Licht’s reign at CNN has been a bit choppy might be an understatement.

But, one FTVLive reader that watches the struggling cable news network, says Licht has done some good.

Here is his take:

“Chris Licht's time at CNN has been frought with hardship, to be sure.  However, I think it's worth taking a look at some of the POSITIVE things that have emerged since his time in power.  First, I do believe that CNN is becoming much more hard news focused.  Their program, CNN News Central, feels much more like a newscast and it feels like they have pivoted away from endless hours of having political analysts on. 

And, while it took much longer than it should have, the sheer fact that Don Lemon is gone has done wonders for the organization.”
