Sources told Page Six on Friday that CNN’s “facing a near internal revolt” over Jeff Zucker’s hiring of Lewandowski as an exclusive commentator for the news network days after he was fired as Donald Trump’s campaign manager.

“CNN is facing a near internal revolt over the Corey hiring,” said a TV insider, who described many in the newsroom as “livid.” “Female reporters and producers especially .?.?. They are organizing and considering publicly demanding” that Lewandowski be let go.

1. I can imagine they would revolt.

What is CNN thinking? I'm turning CNN off if he is on. I don't watch much TV except occasional news ( never FOX), and sure won't watch him. Maybe they want Trump fans to watch their channel.

5. He's legally enjoined from criticizing Trump, right? What else is he worth listening to about?

buyer's remorse for Zucker should set in quickly

6. it's revolting to the consumers who watch too.

this should remind viewers that the 'news' organizations of today are not news organizations. they are reality shows.
