Supposedly, the new regime has high hopes of restoring some semblance of credibility with a less Trump-centrist, hard-left approach, as their new chairman and CEO Chris Licht takes the helm. He told staffers that he would "double down on what's working well and quickly eliminate what's not." This led both Acosta and Stelter to worry about their futures, but at least neither of them have been outed as sexual predators like Zucker, Cuomo, Lemon (allegedly), or as video masturbators like Jeffrey Toobin.
Axios reported on Tuesday that "three sources familiar with the matter" regarding future plans said that Licht is evaluating if staffers can adjust to the less polemic approach, and anyone who doesn’t fall in line "could be ousted" so they don’t continue to hurt CNN’s reputation of fake news.
"To conservative critics, some on-air personalities, like Jim Acosta and Brian Stelter, have become the face of the network's liberal shift," Axios’ Sara Fischer wrote, using Stelter as an example of the network's hosts who could be out on their butts. She had previously been a guest on his Sunday "Reliable Sources" political comedy show.
Stelter, who is an allegedly straight cis gender man, did not immediately respond to a request for comment by Fox News because they are conservative and do not go along with his far-left values except where he and capitalism are concerned.
A CNN leaker pointed out that Fischer merely noted that Stelter and Acosta are targeted by non-leftist media, and they aren’t identified as being targeted for termination at this time.

| Acosta's serious face |
A CNN leaker pointed out that Fischer merely noted that Stelter and Acosta are targeted by non-leftist media, and they aren’t identified as being targeted for termination at this time.
Acosta’s inclusion was unsurprising, as the staunchly liberal host has long been considered one of the more partisan, obnoxious and narcissistic personalities at the failing network.
Acosta became famous for shouting questions at Trump, strong-arming a young woman when she was instructed to take his microphone from him when he refused to allow Trump to answer a question, and for being a total bickering ass on the telly.
Acosta is the embodiment of fake news and he really isn't very bright.
And while Licht " doesn't want to necessarily shy away from personality programming, especially in prime time," Fischer wrote, he wants to see the numbers rise and doesn't want leftist views to dominate in ways that will cause intelligent viewers to change the channel to the "Cooking Show."

Licht said he would "reimagine" [a pretentious word that means 'imagine'] CNN's morning show where co-host Brianna Keilar would be obnoxious with conservatives and would speak over them. Whether or not she remains is still a mystery, but if she does, then there you go again.
