An unpopular opinion. Licht is doing a fine job, CNN US has become more watchable, objective, non-partisan and open for discussion and different topics. Zucker's worst talking heads are gone but sadly it seems like his ghost is still haunting the place. Changing the culture of this place will take more time but hopefully Chris & Zaslav can do it.
There's been some missteps with some parts like either he or someone thought it made sense to have Don Lemon as a breakfast host, and the network overlooking Robin Meade again before ridding of her, but then some good things have happened: News Central's format works since they are doing more than just politics and politics babble all day. The Sunday program thing was a good idea, need more reporting in news and less "what do you think about what happened today? or what this person said?" Overall, I do agree with you though.
