David Ellison Outlines Plans for CNN Under Paramount
Original: I will NEVER watch CNN while the Ellisons own it. David Ellison’s Vision for CNN: Same C.E.O and No Bari Weiss, for Now.
Paramount chief David Ellison has laid out his vision for CNN, keeping the current chief executive in place and holding off on bringing in Bari Weiss for now. The news has sparked immediate backlash, with critics announcing boycotts of CNN, Paramount and Oracle, accusing the Ellison family of pushing the network in a rightward direction.
Why now: People fear the Ellison family's ownership will shift CNN's editorial direction to the right, prompting calls for a boycott.
