I think Paramount is going to shut CNN down.
Shut CNN down?
Yeah.
There's no value in it.
I mean, Tom, you just spent five minutes talking about how CNN is valueless.
It has no value.
And the value is not going to suddenly rise in the future.
Everybody's moving away from cable television and cable news, so...
You milk what you can out of it.
You take whatever parts are good enough to move to other parts of the division.
And CNN as a brand, let's face it, completely tarnished, that's never coming back.
Certainly to people on the right.
Somebody on the right is never going to watch CNN again, other than maybe, you know.
So I think eventually what happens is Paramount says we're done with CNN.
Okay, so let me push back.
It's not really about CNN.
Except not in the old legacy media format.
You take somebody like Scott and make him do what you're doing.
You say, oh, we're going to build a social media new empire around it.
You take the talent and build up the infrastructure around it.
