Catched up on the development today on Licht resigning, I can't say I am surprised. At least when you had Zucker in charge, whatever you thought of him under his leadership, it felt quite united within CNN themselves, where as everyone seems to have lost confidence in Licht under his leadership.
I suppose it started out quite promising with him making some swift decisions about CNN+, less partisan way of presenting the news and a more reporting based approach but I think the Trump Town Hall, Don Lemon on breakfast and lack of direction and vision on Prime Time is what has killed his chances for him. The biggest success he will have is News Central, that has been an excellent and innovative way of doing the news and that really should be a feature as to whoever takes controls of CNN next.
