So, the great Chris Licht experiment at CNN comes to an inglorious end as the 1-year CEO walks off into the sunset with a no doubt huge severance package and the undying gratitude of literally no one for his efforts to rid the fakest news platform on Planet Earth of its ingrained leftwing bias.

Well, hey, at least he managed to take a few bodies with him, with Brian Stelter, Chris Cuomo and Don Lemon the most notable among them. So, he can point to those firings as his signature achievements, but not much else.

The only other action of note Licht took during his year on the job was signing off on the Donald Trump townhall meeting several weeks back. That sh*t show hosted by child fake-reporter Kaitlan Collins attracted decent ratings, but it also ended up being the seminal event that got Licht fired due to the outrage it generated from within a CNN staff made up of Democrat party activists and Operation Mockingbird plants.
