CNN reviews

The parent company, TimeWarner, is swinging the wrecking ball at the fourth estate while it cherry-picks profits out of the rubble of responsibility and moral conscience. CNN's newsrooms have fun house floors, especially if you're in the U.S. Sure, the benefits and vacation will be great, but then a trap door will open, you'll whisk down a chute, and they'll be snapped from your grasp as you sail to the pavement. Yes, yes, the corporate world, but really the way to run a news institution? When profits are high? When you have the power and finances to turn it into a beacon of journalistic hope for your nation, and others? Go to CNN, and your colleagues there will be unforgetable and the vast majority lovely. But management will promote their own, less deserving friends ahead of them and dismiss good, hard working people. The inanimate gaze of the chopping block in the room will taint your days with angst. And then there's Trump. The American monster CNN midwifed. Much of the U.S. media have prostituted themselves to King Bigot for clicks and ratings, but CNN has held court the most, and helped him gel a fascist movement in the United States that will delight the world for years to come. (Yes, Russell Brand, Bill Maher and John Oliver, you may have this as a gift.)

Expect to work weekends, holidays, overnights throughout your career especially if you work in production.
