☆ The PR pros at CNN just got fired along with CEO Chris Licht, even though that disastrous Atlantic profile was his passion project
  + stars: | 2023-06-07 | by ( Nicholas Carlson | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +2 min
CNN chair and CEO Chris Licht was ousted from the network on Wednesday. Insiders say Licht was responsible for pushing The Atlantic profile forward. I guess the lesson is: when your boss is about to do something really stupid, throw your body in the way. I say that because, last Friday, The Atlantic published a brutal 15,000+ word profile on CNN chair and CEO Chris Licht and today – well, today he got fired. But it was Licht who pushed the project forward over the summer of 2022, including over a long dinner with the writer.

☆ CNN's story on the ouster of its CEO is a giant middle finger
  + stars: | 2023-06-07 | by ( Hayley Peterson | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +2 min
CNN reporter Oliver Darcy described Licht's tenure as "stained by a series of severe missteps." Darcy wrote that Licht alienated employees at all levels of CNN and effectively "lost the room." He said the chairman and CEO alienated employees at all levels of the organization and effectively "lost the room." But he "quickly squandered much of that goodwill through a series of blunders, many of his own making," Darcy wrote. "In the final days, Licht seemed to understand that he had alienated staffers," Darcy wrote.

☆ CNN's CEO bragged to the Atlantic about shedding 48 pounds through diet and exercise. Reports say he had a little help from Ozempic.

CNN CEO Chris Licht claimed to lose nearly 50 pounds from diet and exercise. Now sources tell the Daily Mail and the Daily Beast's Confider that Licht boasted of using Ozempic. Licht told reporter Tim Alberta he dropped nearly 50 pounds over the last three years through a strict diet and grueling exercise regimen. In the Atlantic profile, Licht, 51, boasted about his ascetic eating habits and intense early-morning workouts with trainer Joe Maysonet. "I'm a fucking machine," Licht told The Atlantic, explaining why he was skipping a meal.

☆ Inside CNN's epic PR fail that made a mockery of CEO Chris Licht

The Atlantic published a really tough article about CNN CEO Chris Licht. The disaster I'm referring to is Tim Alberta's devastating profile of CNN chair and CEO Chris Licht published Friday. And maybe, the story suggests, that's because that big idea is not really Licht's plan at all but one foisted on him by his boss, Warner Bros. Through the summer, Alberta and Licht and CNN comms people talked about what the story might look like. A handful of sources tell me Kelly was skeptical of whether this was a good idea, Dornic was happy to do whatever, and Licht really, really wanted to do it.

☆ 'It's like watching a snuff film': Media elites shocked by The Atlantic's surgical dismantling of CNN boss Chris Licht

("I'm a fucking machine," Licht told me one day, when I asked why he was skipping a meal.) A clear-the-air town hall where he gets irritated with the CNN journalist interviewing him. Licht told Alberta. The big blunder Alberta returns to over and over in the story is the May 10 Trump town hall. Another media big wig, but one not at the conference, told me he thinks Licht is "done" at CNN.

☆ CNN CEO Chris Licht is facing an increasingly angry newsroom as more layoffs loom, plans are murky, and staff have lost confidence after 'horrible programming decisions'
  + stars: | 2022-11-04 | by ( Claire Atkinson | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +9 min
CNN CEO Chris Licht has been faulted by the newsroom for too many changes and not enough communication. Chris Licht needs a hit. "People are starting to believe there is no plan," said one executive familiar with the workings of CNN. "Is Chris Licht going to be there for them and push back on government officials? Many on the ad sales team that was formerly dedicated to CNN have either been pink-slipped or joined the broader ad sales group under WBD ad honcho Jon Steinlauf.
