Desk Jobs

CNN goes broke going woke:

Three reporters are leaving the now-canceled beat. One was fired, while the other two were reassigned; it’s not clear who they may have been. This is part of a larger 100-person lay-off at the network. Unsurprisingly, the “Race and Equality” desk was set up in the religious fervor surrounding the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis in 2020. You remember—the U.S. went nuts, leftists and Black Lives Matter members burned cities and government buildings. And best of all, CNN itself birthed a meme when its on-camera reporter stood live in front of burning buildings in Kenosha, Wisconsin in the background while describing the protests as “mostly peaceful.” Mainstream media has been left-wing media for decades, of course. But the hard turn to insane left really kicked off with the death of George Floyd, and was further entrenched by the delirium that gripped America over the Covid-19 virus. Reporting became all-race, all the time, with white people and conservatives blamed for, well, everything, all the time. Though it’s not like their non-DEI news desks are much better – don’t forget their coverage of the attempted Donald Trump assassination only days ago, which they attempted to portray Trump being rushed off stage after falling at a rally. It looks like CNN is belatedly learning what Bud Light learned when its value tanked after teaming up with a drag queen pretending to be woman. And just last month, rural farm supply chain Tractor Supply reversed course and vowed to stop donating to and working with leftist social justice organizations after customers complained.

The customer is still always right...
