Is something going on at CNN?

I have DirecTV and most of the time the CNN signal is down or something, lately. I haven't been motivated enough to call their service number.

But the content I saw didn't really surprise me either. Cable new IS a business and it's all about the ratings. The CNN producer is right about that.

I was wondering why CNN in particular this morning.

On edit: I found the aforementioned video after some digging around:




I immediately thought of the $3 billion in free media coverage that propelled trump to the WH last year.
