CNN+ is being shut down after barely getting started. Ratings were an absolute disaster for the entire lineup. What a shock

I wonder if he will be asked back to the March Madness panel next year? He brought great insight......like when he said "RIP Pete Gillen"(who is very much alive).

Maybe he and Chris Wallace can start a gig together. They deserve each other.

Good. We need lees 24 hour news. Have no idea why on earth anyone would pay for a 24-hour streaming news service anyways. What can they possibly cover that's not covered on the myriad of 24-hour news TV channels and the endless amount of news websites?

I could never figure out how he got those jobs to begin with.

He’s hugely disliked even amongst the fan base at UK …where he played …so what made the networks think the rest of America would be into him?

What a terrible business venture. You're trying to charge your demographic, communists and freeloaders, money to watch your service? And you think they'll pay? That sounds damn near capitalist. Hmmmmmm
How is Truth Social doing?

1.2 million Twitter followers is impressive. The reviews for his show seemed tame, not exciting. Maybe a YouTube show would work?

This is what some people don't get. Just because someone follows you on Twitter doesn't mean they will pay for your content. I think it was CBS that started a show called "S%&$ my dad says" which was just a popular twitter profile. It failed miserably. I like Rex posting videos of dogs and random "block or charge?" videos but there is no chance in hell I'd ever pay for it.

Yep, this is an inconvenient little fact that conservatives try to ignore. The biggest net leeches of federal handouts and welfare money are mostly red states, and the biggest net contributors to our revenue base are mostly blue states.

The reality of how it works is precisely the opposite of how they imagine it in their head.
