Billionaire Trump Donor Is Taking Over CNN, Says It Needs ‘Actual Journalists’
CNN's left-wing lickspittle may become a thing of the past when it is spun off to Discovery later this year.
Cable TV pioneer John Malone, a billionaire Trump donor and Discovery's largest shareholder, has said he’s eager to restore the network to impartiality. Malone retains a 25 percent voting share in Discovery, which will take control of WarnerMedia and its assets - including CNN - later this year.
“I would like to see CNN evolve back to the kind of journalism that it started with, and actually have journalists, which would be unique and refreshing,” said Malone. “I do believe good journalism could have a role in this future portfolio that Discovery-TimeWarner’s going to represent.”
