“CNN Chief Executive Chris Licht apologized to staff on a morning editorial call, saying news about his management of the network was overshadowing its journalistic achievements,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“Licht’s remarks came after an unflattering profile of him in the Atlantic was published on Friday.”
Vanity Fair: “The words are the first from Licht to be made public since the piece was unveiled. Thanks to a rich vein of unfettered access provided over months, the piece detailed the executive’s struggles — and some of his insecurities — during his first year on the job at the Warner Bros. Discovery-backed news outlet.”
