Jon Nicosia, who correctly reported Brian Stelter was to be sacked before it was announced, says that the next person on the chopping block is slimy, dishonest, trump-hating liar Jim Acosta.
Nicosia first reported three days ago that another “big name” at CNN is to be let go as Discovery continues to clean house. He quoted an executive at the company saying the mystery person “does not have a place in the new CNN. He reminds us of the Zucker period we are looking to move far from. The only reason he is still on air was not to look like we were ‘cleaning house’ for political reasons right after the closing.”
Today Nicosia revealed the “big name” to which he was referring is loudmouth Jim Acosta.
“The person this Discovery exec was talking about is Jim Acosta. CNN (like they did when I reported about Stelter being let go) will be to defend the person. That’s what network PR people do. Keep in mind many of the recent people let go had big support within the network /more”
“Since Acosta was the main Trump lightning rod between the “old” CNN and the new owners future vision he will either go quick, or with a lot of internal pushback. Stay tuned.” he said.
CNN is nowhere near done cleaning house.
“Acosta won’t be the last of the “old guard” to go, but this “takes time” and “they’re getting an incredible amount of internal push back from people who want to stay a resistance network”
