Warner Bros. Discovery, the parent company of CNN, will soon lay off over 1,000 employees before year's end, according to anonymous sources telling CNBC. The company currently has 40,000 employees but profits are set to decrease below $1 billion for the first time since 2016, aka: 'Orange Man Bad Era. [Fun Fact: UK's former Prime Minister Liz Truss lasted longer than CNN+.]
Licht's job, assigned to him by Discovery CEO David Zaslav, was to trim the fat from CNN and the fat was quickly trimmed (in more ways than one) with the firing of Brian Stelter.
In a memo to employees, Licht stated, “There is widespread concern over the global economic outlook, and we must factor that risk into our long-term planning.” In other words, learn to code, peons.
“All this together will mean noticeable change to this organization. That, by definition, is unsettling. These changes will not be easy because they will affect people, budgets, and projects.”

Due to the fact that people are generally fed up with wokeism and constant attacks against half the nation, Licht is attempting to make the network less biased in its reporting and less “obsessive” about politics, according to CNBC.
The shakeup also included a demotion for Don Lemon, who lost his primetime position and was moved to CNN’s new morning show debuting on Tuesday. He swears that it isn't a downgrade, but that's fake news and coming from him, should not surprise us.
Once Trump was out of office, CNN began to circle the bowl as its ratings collapsed by nearly 70 percent.
Now it looks as if Licht is going to "do a Musk" and clean house.
