My take on this was it was just a clone of the Fox News pay service. The CNN one would just be from a left-leaning perspective or some such. I bet if they market it better, it will do OK.
- downrightmike 5y agoThen they've missed the mark, because they aren't left, just center.
- sfblah 5y agoI don't know about the leanings of CNN+, since I don't pay for it. I do know that Don Lemon and (former host) Chris Cuomo are obviously slanted left. I don't know if there's an objective way to measure this, so I just look at my own reactions, as I know I'm a moderate (my most recent presidential votes were Biden, Clinton, Romney, Obama, Bush; and I support about half of each party's political platform -- I'm pro-choice, pro-nuclear, anti-gun, anti-woke).
- dbbk 5y agoIf you've seen anything from Chris Cillizza you wouldn't say CNN is left-leaning. Also, their major star of CNN+ is Chris Wallace who they poached from Fox News.
- sfblah 5y agoThat's interesting. I don't pay for CNN+, so I'm just familiar with their standard news coverage, which is definitely left-slanted.
