After the announcement that CNN+ was shutting down I went on their Twitter account (@CNNplus) to get a feel for what sort of content they produced.
Maybe it's because I'm from a younger generation, but it all comes off as overproduced and inauthentic media-speak.
It's obvious that their demographic is old people, since all of their media personalities are old people.
Ben Stiller talking about making new friends in old-age thanks to Twitter. Discussing parenting tips with Anderson Cooper. A bunch of washed-up media personalities with nothing new or interesting to say.
The refusal to pass the torch onto a younger generation while clinging to their positions of power becomes a generational plague. CNN is a walking corpse which will pass away with its audience.
