- Fox New star Tucker Carlson made his bones at CNN, but he has a dim view of the struggling network’s fate.
- Carlson said that Chris Licht, who took over as CNN’s CEO in May, is facing an uphill battle as he tries to salvage the network amid budget and staff cuts.
- “I don’t think it gets fixed, I think it dies,” Carlson told former Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard on her podcast. “I worked at CNN for maybe nine years, and so I knew CNN well, I hosted a show there for a long time. CNN has changed a lot, now they’re trying to change again and become more what it was like when I worked there.”
