What evidence do you have that the reason he fired those reporters was "for saying there was no evidence the 2020 election was stolen, and for pointing out that it had been proven that many people claiming it was were intentionally lying." He could have fired them for any number of reasons. > they said their business plan for the next few years was to pull in the Fox News demographic by running similar content. Who are "they" and where did "they" say this? Licht's background, based on the article, was as the producer for Morning Joe with Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski. My understanding is that show would be considered a left-leaning show. He is also known as the show-runner for the late-night Stephen Colbert show. I believe that is also a pretty left-leaning show. I am maybe more willing to give him the benefit of the doubt in the face of the clear smears against him from The Atlantic article, but it seems well within reason to see him as a left-leaning believer in journalistic integrity. I assume that he honestly believes that the remedy to the rise of right-wing populism is to engage the other side in open debate and encourage the truth to shine through. But it seems beyond reason for me to assume he was a covert right-wing operator masquerading for decades as a left-wing political show runner waiting for his chance to transform CNN into Fox News. Your response is totally in-line with the implied environment that The Atlantic is painting. The left is so ravenous for blood that they will paint anyone leaning towards the center as an enemy. The execs at CNN don't want moderate and unbiased voices (they "helicoptered" in). The reporters at CNN don't want moderate and unbiased leadership (they undermined Licht). And the public don't want moderate and unbiased media (they didn't tune in and ratings dropped). It doesn't matter if that is true or false, it is the narrative being implied.
