Former Fox Anchor ‘Second Guessing’ Move to CNN After Zucker Ouster
The unprofessional, interpersonal drama may drive away CNN’s prized new possession.


If there is one thing that we’ve learned about CNN in the past week, it’s that the cable news network has a great deal of interpersonal drama, and that these shenanigans go all the way to the top.
The most poignant example of this so far has come in the wake of CNN chief Jeff Zucker’s departure from the company, after it was revealed that he was having an undisclosed relationship with a former communications staffer for the disgraced ex-Governor of New York Andrew Cuomo. Cuomo, you may remember, was found to have received undue and unethical media and PR help from his CNN host brother, Chris Cuomo, who himself was subsequently terminated from the network on account of his own poor behavior.
Now it has been reported that talent at the network is under the impression that Chris Cuomo revealed Zucker’s relationship in retaliation for circumstances surrounding his firing.
This messy, unprofessional situation has Chris Wallace allegedly second guessing his decision to move from Fox News to CNN.
“Chris is the type of person who makes it known if he doesn’t like something,” a source told Radar. “He went over there for Zucker and now Zucker is gone.
“Wallace feels that he has been stiffed. He’s got no staff, no Executive Producer and the guy he gave up a prized gig for has just walked out the door.”
Despite reportedly making between $8-$10 million, Wallace is now “second guessing his decision” after Zucker’s resignation over a consensual relationship with a fellow CNN employee Allison Gollust.
And then there are other bits of drama to be sorted out.
“It’s no secret in D.C. that Wallace hates Jake Tapper and despises Sam Feist,” the source continued about two other top CNN figures, the latter the senior vice president.
“Zucker spun his magic to allay Chris’ concern about the pair, promising that his status as a ‘premiere journalist’ would not be compromised while working out of the D.C. bureau.”
With their reputation in tatters, this latest reporting regarding Wallace’s intimations could send CNN into yet another downward spiral, and just as the entire cable news industry looks to rebound from an abysmal ratings slump.

Musk Steps Back from Twitter Purchase After ‘Fake Users’ Concern
Or is Musk a better negotiator than we give him credit for?


Free speech advocates around the world have been rejoicing in recent days, as Tesla CEO Elon Musk appeared to be on the verge of purchasing social media giant Twitter.
The site, which has grown restrictive for conservative viewpoints in recent years, was going to be “unlocked” by Musk, who firmly believed that a more open, inclusive Twitter would be a much more powerful tool than previously imagined.
But now, as his team uncovers concerns about the site’s real user number, Musk is taking a step back.
Tesla billionaire Elon Musk has put his plan to buy Twitter on what he called a temporary “hold,” raising fresh doubts about whether he’ll proceed with the $44 billion acquisition.
Musk tweeted early Friday that he wanted to pinpoint the number of spam and fake accounts on the social media platform. He has been vocal about his desire to clean up Twitter’s problem with “spam bots” that mimic real people, and he appeared to question whether Twitter was underreporting them.
But the company has disclosed in regulatory filings that its bot estimates might be low for at least two years, leading some analysts to believe that Musk could be raising the issue as a reason to back out of the purchase.
Musk wasn’t shy about his issue.
“Twitter deal temporarily on hold pending details supporting calculation that spam/fake accounts do indeed represent less than 5% of users,” Musk tweeted Friday morning, indicating he’s skeptical that the number of inauthentic accounts is that low.
The eccentric billionaire would go on to insist that he still fully intends to purchase the site, leading some to speculate as to whether or not this might be a simple negotiating tactic.

Sony Bucks Beijing By Refusing to Censor Spiderman Movie
At least someone is refusing to capitulate to China.


China has long been exploiting their citizenry, thanks to their commitment to the cruel tenets of authoritarian communism and their unwavering disregard for even the most basic of human rights. This has allowed the CCP to treat Chinese citizens like cattle, working low-paying jobs to produce goods that can then flood the international market, essentially milking them for money.
In order to keep the people of China happy in this arrangement, the government has had to severely limit the sorts of ideas that can be viewed in art or books, lest their human livestock were to get some strange ideas about freedom.
In order to do this, China has leveraged their enormous consumer base against some of the west’s most powerful entertainment companies, demanding that they tamp down certain references in books, films, television, and music.
A recent attempt to manipulate one Marvel’s biggest blockbusters has not gone Beijing’s way, however.
Sony reportedly refused the Chinese government’s demand to scrub the Statue of Liberty from Spider-Man: No Way Home.
According to Puck on Sunday, citing “multiple sources,” the Chinese government requested the Statue of Liberty be digitally removed from the film, despite its inclusion in a pivotal scene. Sony rejected the request.
The Chinese government then asked if the Statue of Liberty could be, according to Puck, “minimized in the sequence: if Sony could cut a few of the more patriotic shots of [Tom] Holland standing atop the crown, or dull the lighting so that Lady Liberty’s visage wasn’t so front-and-center.” Sony considered the request, but declined.
China has demanded several changes to major movies throughout the years, including a massive adjustment to the end of Fight Club, in which the protagonists’ plot to destroy the credit banking system was removed and replaced with an epilogue stating that all of the characters involved were arrested by police…even the character that was a figment of someone’s imagination the whole time.
