A new report claims that multiple big names at CNN could be let go as the network puts financial stability over famous faces.
The report in In Touch says that Anderson Cooper, Chris Wallace, Wolf Blitzer and Jake Tapper could all be axed as CEO Mark Thompson prepares a radical plan to cut costs.
“Anderson knows he’s on the chopping block because he makes a whopping $20 million a year. He’s already started looking for a new gig!” a source described as a “network insider” told In Touch.
“Chris Wallace takes $8 million and figures he’s a likely target, too!” the source said, noting with $15 million for Blitzer and $8 million for Tapper, the cuts could make a major dent in CNN’s costs.
“Everybody knows the focus is on cutting costs,” the source said. “No one is safe!”
The report said most contracts for major CNN hosts will not expire until after November’s election.
“CNN is trying to keep up with the news landscape and become a digital-first provider,” In Touch quoted another source as saying.
Go woke, go broke? or just psychotic ideological clowns getting what they deserve?
