How toxic is Scott Jennings inside CNN? @status.news has learned some producers are giving on-air talent a heads-up when he is scheduled to appear on shows, quietly offering them the option to preemptively excuse themselves rather than appear alongside him.
CNN's Scott Jennings pushed a dubious White House talking point on the Iran war to millions that was later knocked down by the network's own journalists.
Frustration over Jennings has now made its way to CNN's senior leaders. More in @status.news www.status.news/p/scott-jenn...

While the move all but guarantees brutal layoffs across the company, it landed like a meteor at Hudson Yards. Inside CNN, alarm bells went off as staffers began to panic over the suddenly very real prospect that they could be working for Bari Weiss before the end of the year. Within minutes of the news crossing the wire, my phone lit up with messages from anxious employees fretting about the future. “We are doomed,” one staffer candidly said. “We are f**ked,” said another. “Everybody is reeling about the obvious things,” said a third.
I've seen a lot of grim sentences about the media business over the last couple of decades, but none is grimmer than this one. ⤵️
