John Krasinski sells 'Some Good News' web series to CBS; some fans aren't happy https://www.usatoday.com/story...-sellout/5247315002/ "Do you want to hear the good news or bad news first? John Krasinski has sold his feel-good web series "Some Good News" to ViacomCBS following a massive bidding war. "Wow who can believe when we started this thing together we all just wanted good news to be more fully represented in our everyday lives," Krasinski tweeted following the announcement. "And now? You quite literally ARE the good news! Thanks to you, SGN lives on, joining the ranks of this historic news network! See you all soon!" In a statement posted to Twitter, CBS said: "On @johnkrasinski’s very first episode of @somegoodnews, he asked why has there never been a news show dedicated entirely to good news. Well, we at CBS agree and we are proud to welcome SGN to @CBS and the @CBSNews family." . . . That news didn't sit well with some fans. . . Twitter user @lindseyweber wrote, "Remember when he created this free feel good YouTube show to “make people feel good” and now he is................selling it for $$$? really cool, 100% honorable." "So he made 8 YouTube videos comprised largely of unpaid contributions from fans, sold the brand to a major conglomerate, and isn't even going to make it anymore? Just cashed out? Does this rub anyone else the wrong way, kinda?" tweeted @Lons. @Leah_rants added: "Finding out Some Good News #SGN has been sold to be put behind a paywall on #CBSAllaccess is so disheartening. 'Yeah, you can have your good news, if you pay us 5.99 a month for it.' Way to completely lose the integrity behind it." . . . [snip] "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

I’m as capitalist as the next guy, if not more so, but Krasinski is a sellout. This asshat has the nerve to complain about Trump’s overriding capitalist tendencies? He obviously doesn’t understand pretext; under no circumstances did Krasinski indicate that he was doing the channel for anything other than as kind, benevolent act. I stopped watching after episode 2 and made my wife mad as I thought something was up and even half-jokingly stated that he would manage to profit off it beyond his public image. Sure enough my This Liberal is Another Self-Centered Asshole Radar was right on target. | |||

It is almost like cbs hired him to create a channel for a few months to prove there was a viable show. Once that was confirmed it was moved to cbs | |||
