CNN is doing a new town hall for Niki Haley.

[Bev54]

I guess they thought there last one was such a success they will do another. I doubt they will get many viewers for this, might actually lose regular viewers, and they cannot afford to go much lower. This one will be moderated by Jake Tapper, oh yipee.

1. UGH............

I refuse to watch the current CNN. It sucks.

[barbaraann]

2. So, if the GOP runs hundreds of candidates in their Presidential primary,

they can have a "town hall" every night!!!

[pwb]

3. Isn't it Joes turn?

.

[Beautiful Disaster]

13. If Biden wanted to do a town hall, I'm sure CNN would be happy to host.

I doubt the reason is that they refuse to extend an offer to Biden. More likely, he isn't interested in a town hall - on CNN or MSNBC or whatever.

[Scrivener7]

23. Why are you sure of that?

[BlueCheeseAgain]

26. I think any reasonable news org (i.e. not Fox) would want the POTUS.

If you're in the business of reporting news, who could be more significant?

[Scrivener7]

27. It depends. Are you trying to become Fox 2?

In that case, the r candidates are more important because they give you credibility with the lunatics.

[Beautiful Disaster]

31. Even FOX would do it if Biden offered.

He won't - but they would if he did.

[BlueCheeseAgain]

33. I agree with you.

Every other network, 100%. Fox, probably 95%.

[Mad_Machine76]

34. Assumes reasonability

Is CNN still considered "reasonable"?

[BlueCheeseAgain]

36. Absolutely.

[Beautiful Disaster]

30. Because he's the president of the United States running for reelection lmao

[Raine]

35. Probably all he has to do is say YES and they'll

set it up for him to come in.

[Xavier Breath]

37. Yep. He knows (nearly) 18 months out from election day is an eternity

in politics, so he's probably content right now to just let the chimp party toss their feces at one another and he can have a town hall in '24.

[Beautiful Disaster]

38. He's also not fighting in a primary like these Republicans.

They're going to have debates and townhalls. He'll continue leading the country

Though, I do think he could have a primetime townhall on ABC or something and just shit all over McCarthy.

[Submariner]

4. Has CNN announced Biden's Town Hall

with exclusively tree hugging Liberals in the audience, and how about being moderated by a former NSA agent with top secret clearances, and sometimes Daily Show news reporter, Wanda Sykes.

[madinmaryland]

39. Don't forget that George Soros will be sponsoring Biden's Town Hall.

[zipplewrath]

5. Bet they have a different audience.

The over all conclusion apparently at CNN is that the problem with the 1 hour + free advertising for Trump was the audience.

[FSogol]

6. Good. That town hall is needed. The one thing America hasn't decided about Nikki Haley is

will she come in 5th place or 6th place in the Republican Primaries?

[Johonny]

7. Can't wait to not watch it

[LoisB]

9. +1000

[EYESORE 9001]

8. I've added it to my list

of things to avoid like the frickin’ plague.

[JuJuChen]

10. 100% MSNBC now, I left after CNN after that town hall

[Vinca]

11. I haven't been this excited since Tim Scott announced his run for POTUS.

[GoCubsGo]

12. I guess they're looking for even lower ratings than they have now?

It's like they're purposely trying to kill the network.

[BlueCheeseAgain]

14. It's completely reasonable for a news network to have a town hall for a presidential candidate.

[JenniferJuniper]

15. How do they plan on finding enough supporters

to fill the first row?

[Bev54]

16. Maybe do want Trump does, pay them and have your entire campaign team as part of the

audience. I don't know if she has support in Iowa but I guess she thinks she does.

[NotVeryImportant]

17. When will we get a Marrianne Williamson or even a RFK town hall?

They're both polling higher than Nimrada.

[Bev54]

20. Hard to say, she has just lost her two top people on her campaign, so who will book it?

[NotVeryImportant]

22. Who lost their two top people?

[Bev54]

40. Marianne Williamson

[lark]

18. Fuck CNN, they are totally off the list of watchable news programs.

They are dead to me!

[senseandsensibility]

19. Disgusting

Repug only audience again I assume?

[Cha]

21. Filled only with Nikki Haley fans?

TY

[lame54]

42. Being held at a Photohut

[ecstatic]

24. Nope. They should use Kaitlan again

trump clearly didn't want to be questioned by Tapper so nobody else should be either.

28. First 2 question should be

Do you accept the results of the 2020 Presidential election and that President Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump in a free and fair election?

If Haley waivers and starts saying, "their were irregularities in 2020" or will only say "I accept Joe Biden is the President" end the interview immediately.

[Bev54]

29. It is CNN remember.

[liberalmediaaddict]

32. CNN doesn't get it

By having on MAGA Republicans who are election deniers and Trump sycophants they are turning off viewers who are Democrats and Never Trumpers. That's why their ratings continue to nosedive.

[Thrill]

41. They'll probably be tough on her

Anything to help their lovable Trump

[gulliver]

43. CNN may see a news niche they can try to occupy here: trusted broker

Fox "News" is in turmoil right now, so CNN may see a chance to engage all sides and let the listeners decide. They need to burnish their brand for the coming demise of cable TV. Their "C" will need to be changed to stand for something else.
