CNN Just Anounced Platform Change
Posted: Mon Mar 25, 2019 11:06 pm
It’s been a terrible start to the week for CNN, no one can argue that. But their “Breaking News Release” that they are changing their format to go with a COMPLETE COMEDY FORMAT.
They have spent all day trying to regain what little respect they ever had after the Mueller report.
They had their most exposed expert Avenatti arrested for fraud and extortion. Now we learn his co conspirator in his extortion attempt was Marc Geragos, another CNN legal analyst and atty for such great characters as Jussie and Michael!!! And shocking news today that CNN says he no longer works for the network!!!
But for those who like to day trade in stocks, I’ve been doing a great deal of analysis on the equity play here (having your own Bloomberg adds to expenses but I use the service a lot!). Here’s the skinny:
What makes this format change attractive is the underlying cost savings. Zucker is no dummy. He gets that as a credible news outlet he’s Toast. His ratings can get any lower. But with minimal marketing dollars spent on this format transition he saves a boat load on talent. He already figured out he’s got the best comics in cable news. They are the laughing stock second to none. And comedians get paid a whole lot less than dishonest journalists.
I mean think about it: Acosta as the “Great Carnac” and Blitzer as “Foster Brooks”?!?! Niether of them need to do anything different! Zucker is a genious!!!
Conservatively I see a 30% gain in less than a month for this trade!
