That’s the answer I was looking for. Even worse than I imagined.

Chris Wallace ‘Having Daily Breakdowns’ over CNN+ Failure

Former Fox News anchor Chris Wallace has reportedly been breaking down in front of his crew over the “miserable failure” of the new streaming platform CNN+.

News of this disaster has not been well-received by Chris Wallace, who left Fox News in late-2021 to join CNN+, and he has reportedly voiced this frustration to his staffers, according to reporter Jon Nicosia.

“SOURCE: Chris Wallace is ‘having daily breakdowns’ over the ‘miserable launch’ of [CNN+],” Nicosia announced. “Wants a ‘CNN show or is threatening to walk’ they go on. ‘He is having staffers count how many times a day his promo is playing.'”

The source also reportedly told Nicosia that Wallace is “telling anyone that will listen he wants” Chris Cuomo’s old time slot.


Most likely manufactured drama to get people paying attention to CNN or CNN+.

Who here watches news, not reads, but actually watches news video through an app, Fox, CNN, or other news source, doesn't matter the source.

I know I don't, wife uses the Fox News app to read. If everyone did it would be like having a room full of contractors with Nextel phones going off on 2-way, rude and irritating if people were playing the news through speakers, you'd want a headset for sure.

Still CNN sucks.

CNN has been hemorrhaging audience for a couple years or more, have they not? I can't imagine what in blazes made them think launching a streaming service was going to be a winner.

Investment divided by total yearly viewers at 10K a day comes out to $27 and change per view for the first year (assuming they can make it a full year).

I wonder who the supposed 10,000 daily viewers are assuming they actually exist. Maybe Disney employees

After spending around a half-billion — with a “B” — dollars, CNN, a far-left propaganda outlet that spreads political violence and conspiracy theories, launched CNN+ on March 29.

The result? Well, because they couldn’t get enough of CNN’s smug assholes on regular old CNN, tens of people signed on for the CNN+ streaming channel. Apparently, there are a few people in America desperate to be deceived by Kate Bolduan, Wolf Blitzer, Jake Tapper, Brian Stelter, and Fareed Zakaria at such a level that the deception on CNN wasn’t enough.

Additionally, Kasie Hunt was brought over from MSNBC.

Chris Wallace, the only Fox News anchor with failing ratings, was also a CNN+ hire, and now he says his future is uncertain, which is exactly the future he deserves.

Best of all, toxic narcissist Jemele Hill has failed at yet another fake news outlet desperate to force her racism on the rest of us.

The result of all this money and “talent?” According to one report, only 4,000 viewers were tuning in to CNN+ at any given time.

CNN released a statement explaining how the tens of people who paid that $2.99 subscriptions fee will be refunded:

CNN+ streaming will come to an end on April 28, 2022. If you purchased your subscription directly from us, we will be providing a full refund for your subscription fee back to your original CNN+ payment method by May 28, 2022. If you purchased your subscription via a third party, such as Apple, Google, Roku, or Amazon, that third party will process a full refund of your subscription fee in accordance with their respective refund policies and timelines. You can confirm the details of those refunds directly with the applicable third-party app store provider.
