John Harwood got fired by CNN today. They’re going right. How they think this is good for their business model is beyond me.

Apparently Harwood was told a month ago that today would be his last day, so he made a pointed statement on air in his last opportunity.

Yeah, CNN is caught up in all of this HBO/Discovery mess, and the new bosses haven't been shy about wanting to make CNN more about "both sides" reporting, and we all know what that horsefeathering means. There was little point in watching it for a while now, and there's zero reason to watch or support it going forward.

I posted upthread about an allusion to CNN shifting rightwards, but it wasn't specific. This has some detail.

Yeah, CNN is caught up in all of this HBO/Discovery mess

I'm curious whether Bill Maher will be another eventual casualty.

The good news is, local journalism, you know, the kind that exposes things like local corruption, has collapsed in the vast expanses of this country.
