CNN - Confused News Network

Not sure if you've been following this story but Chez Pazienza has a new post about CNN, his former employer.

My only hope is that Ed Litvak's departure from American Morning will somehow be good for the show, although I'm inclined to think that until someone puts an arm around Jon Klein, writes something nice about him, then pushes him out the door, nothing is going to change. It'll just be more of the same nonsense.


Not much in the article but it is interesting how major media is still clueless about how to harness the internet and not have it blow up in their face, as this example exemplifies. The networks would be wise to create online communities around their shows. Certainly it releases control and causes many small fires but it's better than having big fires that cause severe damage.
