I guess it's time for CNNI viewers to get ready for several more years of simulcasts, with the new Trump drama that CNN has wholeheartedly embraced, plus the election coming, the little what's left of CNNI programming will be mostly gone. It's like 2016 all over again...
By "Trump drama" you mean the first U.S. president (former or current) to ever be charged with a crime? Oh, and he's also CURRENTLY running for president again. Whatever your feelings on him, this is a huge deal.
Would you rather CNN ignore it? And all the other indictments that will surely follow (and for much more serious crimes).
Generally, I am NOT a fan of domestic simulcasts.... but for stuff like this, it makes sense.
But on another note -- I don't think Chris Licht has really set his sights on CNNI yet. Who knows what his plans are or will be for the network.
What have we gotten under him so far? A revamped 4am show hosted by Max and Bianca that is always simulcast on domestic and that on occasion has also overtaken Early Start's 5am hour. The return of an 8am show on CNNI. And the killing of the 5pm show.
What will come next? We'll have to wait and see.
