CNN Sees One of Its Lowest Ratings Ever as Massive Layoffs Loom​

CNN’s ratings woes reached a new low this year, plunging in in a key age group—all as the Warner Bros. Discovery network is set to lay off hundreds.

The network managed to score second place between Fox News and MSNBC in a year-end average of the advertiser-coveted 25-54 demographic, averaging 92,000 total-day viewers, according to Nielsen data obtained by Mediaite. While that beat MSNBC, which averaged 86,000 total-day viewers in the demo this year, it is still CNN’s lowest demo average ever—down 1 percent from last year’s previous low of 94,000. (All networks were up in primetime viewers this year, likely due to the election.)

The blow comes as Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav reportedly seeks to cut hundreds from CNN’s payroll, coinciding with its planned digital-first strategy and their vanishing viewership. Just last month, MSNBC beat CNN on election night, once CNN’s crown jewel of programing, for the first time ever.

One CNN staffer told the Daily Beast that staff has been kept in the dark on any layoff news, and all they’re learning about what’s coming is from public reports.

“Everyone’s just waiting,” they said.

The source also noted the specter of a sale, particularly as Zaslav siloed CNN and other cable networks as part of a “Linear Global Networks” division in a company restructure last week. The move has launched speculation that Zaslav could be open to selling off companies—and networks—should Donald Trump’s second presidency offer a better regulatory environment.

A CNN journalist blamed the flailing ratings to the Ankler on a poor job covering Trump. “When we were aggressively covering Trump, we did well,” they told the publication. “When we are flaccid covering him, the ratings tank.”

CNN declined to comment, instead pointing to its ratings release that touted it as “the top digital news outlet in the world” and a top five cable outlet. In the release, however, it noted how “media habits change and the industry evolves,” emphasizing how it’s publicly trying to posture ratings as less relevant—all while it’s sagging behind Fox News and MSNBC in viewership.

The network has already seen some high-profile exits. Chris Wallace, the esteemed newsman who abandoned Fox News after its rampant (and litigated) election denialism for CNN, chose to leave the network last month to make the leap into streaming. The space, he told the Daily Beast, is “where the action seems to be.”

Anchor Alisyn Camerota also announced last week that she’d leave the network after 10 years, and Gloria Borger, a longtime CNN analyst who became a fixture during the network’s seemingly unending political coverage, departed the company on Wednesday. “My first order of business is to spend time ungoverned by a TV schedule,” she told the Daily Beast in a statement. “I’ll always be watching and cheering for CNN.”

CNN also laid off 100 people in July as part of its first round of digital “expansion,” later instituting a paywall and promising moves into lifestyle coverage.

“Turning a great news organization toward the future is not a one-day affair,” Thompson wrote in a staff memo at the time, according to The New York Times.

It appears it may not be a one-year affair either.

Controversies have begun to emerge from President Joe Biden's decision to conduct the largest single-day act of clemency in modern history. Among those benefited by it are people who were widely condemned for their crimes, including Rita Crundwell, a former public official convicted of embezzling over $50 million from a city in Illinois.

Crundwell was the comptroller of Dixon, Illinois, and was sentenced in 2013 of embezzling $53 million in actions that went as far back as 1990. She pleaded guilty to the charges and was sentenced to 19 years in prison.

Crundwell was due to serve 85% of her sentence, meaning that she was set to remain behind bars until October 2029. However, she was released in August 2021 during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic along with several thousands of prisoners as the disease was rapidly spreading in facilities across the country.

"America was built on the promise of possibility and second chances. As President, I have the great privilege of extending mercy to people who have demonstrated remorse and rehabilitation, restoring opportunity for Americans to participate in daily life and contribute to their communities," Biden said in a statement when announcing the clemency.

Overall, he commuted the sentences of 1,500 people released from prison and placed under home confinement during the Covid-19 pandemic and pardoned 39 more who had been convicted of nonviolent crimes.

Crundwell was in the former group, staying in home confinement since 2021. According to her plea deal, she opened in 1990 a bank account under the name of Dixon but used her for personal expenses, including a horse breeding business, credit card purchases and several properties. She also created fake invoices to make it seem like the funds were being used for legitimate expenses and justified shortfalls saying the state was late in payment of tax revenues to the city.

Then-Dixon Mayor Jim Burke reported Crundwell to authorities after an employee took over her duties while she was on extended vacation and found evidence of her crimes. Current Dixon City Manager Danny Langlossa criticized Biden's decision in a statement obtained by CBS News.

"The City of Dixon is shocked and outraged with the announcement that President Biden has given Rita Crundwell clemency for the largest municipal embezzlement in the history of our country. This is a complete travesty of justice and a slap in the face for our entire community," he said.

"While today's news in unimaginable, the City of Dixon is in an incredible place today. We will continue to focus on the future and work to capitalize on the momentum we have created."

Fed cut Fed Funds rate today and 10 Year Treasury went down in value and yields went up. If Federal Reserve has to start raising rates to stop inflation from getting worse and God forbid, cut the massive budget deficits by raising taxes and cutting spending, Trump will be in his worst nightmare.

I wonder if Trump's second term will be like the Carter years (1977-1981) with rising inflation. Carter ended up appointing Paul Volcker to be the Fed Chairman and he was great but he jacked up rates so we had a 20% Prime Rate which led to a severe recession.

Democrats are lobbying President Joe Biden to get as many illegal migrants into the United States as possible and ensure they stay indefinitely before he leaves office and President-elect Donald Trump enters the White House.

This week, Sens. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV), Ben Ray Luján (D-NM), and Alex Padilla (D-CA) sent a letter to Biden asking him to reward large groups of illegal aliens in the U.S. with immigration benefits before he exits office next month.

Yep, suppressing wages is great for the poor and middle class ... on no, I mean it's great for the elites who hate the aforementioned groups.

A few years ago the Biden admin dept of transportation etc put in rules to mandate car makers to notify the govt for data purposes to track auto crashes when cars are on auto-pilot driving.

There are a lot of these crashes, Teslas are involved in most of them. Now Trump people want to take away this reporting mandate.

And so many of you thought Musk was a nice guy.

And the funny thing reported last night was that on Thanksgiving evening of 2022 Musk put out a tweet congratulating Tesla owners because they could download the beta version or get it of the new auto-driving program. He congratulated his tech staff. That same night one of these tesla's on auto drive put on its full brakes for no reason and caused an 8 car pile up in a highway tunnell injuring many and totally screwing up policy.

I dont know about you but I have been involved with enough software rollouts to say BETA versions should never be rolled out to every one. Musk is an asshole who wants to buy trump and new laws

That. was. Awesome!

Here's a breakdown of the Tesla FSD V13 upgrades in simple terms:

1. **36 Hz, full-resolution AI4 video inputs** -
- **ELI5**: Imagine your car's eyes (cameras) can now see much faster and clearer than before. Instead of taking a picture every few seconds, they're now taking 36 pictures every second. This helps the car understand what's happening around it more quickly and accurately.

2. **Native AI4 inputs and neural network architectures** -
- **ELI5**: The car's brain (AI system) now speaks the same language as its new eyes (AI4 cameras). This means the brain can understand what it sees more naturally without needing translations, making the car's reactions smoother and more precise.

3. **3x model size scaling** -
- **ELI5**: Think of the car's brain as a library. This upgrade means we've added three times more books to this library. More books (data) mean the car can learn and remember more about how to drive safely and efficiently.

4. **3x model context length scaling** -
- **ELI5**: Now, not only does the car have more books, but each book is three times longer. This means when the car looks at something, it can remember what it saw much longer ago, helping it make better decisions based on more history.

5. **4.2x data scaling** -
- **ELI5**: The car has been given a lot more homework! It has four times more examples to learn from, making it smarter at handling different driving situations.

6. **5x training compute scaling (enabled by the Cortex training cluster)** -
- **ELI5**: Imagine the car's brain now has a supercomputer to teach it. This computer works five times faster than before, so the car learns its lessons much quicker.

7. **Much improved reward predictions for collision avoidance, following traffic controls, navigation, etc.** -
- **ELI5**: The car now gets better at guessing what will make a good or bad outcome. It's like playing a game where you learn how to score points (good driving) and avoid penalties (accidents or traffic violations).

8. **Efficient representation of maps and navigation inputs** -
- **ELI5**: The car now understands maps like you understand your neighborhood. It can find its way and know what's coming up ahead much more efficiently.

9. **Audio inputs for better handling of emergency vehicles** -
- **ELI5**: Now, the car can hear sirens too. If there's an ambulance or fire truck coming, it knows to make way for them, just like you would.

10. **Redesigned controller for smoother, more accurate tracking** -
- **ELI5**: The car's steering, braking, and accelerating are now like having a very smooth, highly skilled driver. It can follow the road's path more accurately and comfortably.

11. **Integrated unpark, reverse, and park capabilities** -
- **ELI5**: The car can now do a three-point turn, back into a parking spot, or even park itself without your help, making parking much easier for you.

12. **Support for destination options including pulling over, parking in a spot, driveway, or garage** -
- **ELI5**: When you tell your car where to go, it can now decide how to get there in the best way possible, whether that means pulling over, finding a parking spot, or driving into your garage.

13. **Improved camera cleaning and handling of camera occlusions** -
- **ELI5**: If something like rain, mud, or a leaf covers the car's cameras, it now knows better how to clean them or work around the problem, keeping its vision clear.

These upgrades collectively make the car's AI system more capable, more aware, and more responsive to the driving environment, aiming to enhance safety and convenience for users.

As his former attorney Michael Cohen once explained, Donald Trump often doesn’t need to tell his loyalists precisely what he expects them to do. He hints at it, nudges them and expects that they understand what is intended.


In March, for example, he said that former congresswoman Liz Cheney (R-Wyoming) should “go to Jail along with the rest of the Unselect Committee” — a reference to the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. Cheney served as vice chair of the panel.

He was responding to a preliminary report compiled by the House Administration oversight subcommittee, which Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Georgia) leads. That report, a review of the Capitol riot investigation, suggested that the select committee had withheld evidence. This triggered Trump’s recommendation of criminal charges for its members.


Loudermilk is a Trump ally whose subsequent claims that the select committee had also failed to adequately preserve evidence evolved into a Trumpworld insistence that evidence had been destroyed. This has been debunked, but Trump nonetheless referred to that idea during an interview with NBC News this month in which he again suggested that Cheney should “go to jail.”

Follow Politics
“They deleted and destroyed a whole year and a half worth of testimony,” he falsely claimed, referring to the select committee. “I think those people committed a major crime.”
On Tuesday, the final report from Loudermilk’s subcommittee was made public. In it, the subcommittee does recommend criminal charges against Cheney, as Trump had repeatedly demanded. But — probably in recognition that the “destroyed evidence” claim was a canard — the recommendation centers on Cheney’s alleged “tampering” with one of the committee’s key witnesses.


The report’s conclusion summarizes the claim:

“Based on the evidence obtained by this Subcommittee, numerous federal laws were likely broken by Liz Cheney, the former Vice Chair of the January 6 Select Committee, and these violations should be investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Evidence uncovered by the Subcommittee revealed that former Congresswoman Liz Cheney tampered with at least one witness, Cassidy Hutchinson, by secretly communicating with Hutchinson without Hutchinson’s attorney’s knowledge. This secret communication with a witness is improper and likely violates 18 U.S.C. 1512. Such action is outside the due functioning of the legislative process and therefore not protected by the Speech and Debate clause.”
“The Federal Bureau of Investigation must also investigate Representative Cheney for violating 18 U.S.C. 1622, which prohibits any person from procuring another person to commit perjury.”

Click to expand...

Trump, predictably, celebrated this determination, paraphrasing the vaguest snippet of that allegation on social media: “Numerous federal laws were likely broken by Liz Cheney, and these violations should be investigated by the FBI.”
It’s an endorsement of a fishing expedition, a demand from Loudermilk and Trump that the FBI use this pretext to find something to pin to Cheney. But it sits alongside two actual allegations — both of them flimsy to the point of transparency.
At issue is the testimony of Hutchinson, a former aide to Trump’s last chief of staff when he previously served as president, Mark Meadows. Hutchinson, you will probably recall, offered shocking testimony at a June 28, 2022, hearing about Trump’s behavior on the day of the riot, including allegations about his dismissiveness about the threat posed by the crowd at his speech outside the White House that morning, Trump’s insistence on driving to the Capitol after the speech and how he responded to reports about the threat posed to Vice President Mike Pence.


That testimony, though, came about only after Hutchinson went through an internal struggle described in her 2023 book “Enough.” Hutchinson was a loyal Trump supporter and, as such, was provided by Trump’s team with an attorney, Stefan Passantino, when the select committee first subpoenaed her in January 2022.
She sat for two depositions with committee staffers in February and March of that year. Following Passantino’s advice, she didn’t volunteer information that would cast Trump in a negative light. But she began to have qualms about this approach, later reaching out to her former colleague Alyssa Farah for advice on how to proceed. Farah helped orchestrate a third deposition, in May 2022, during which Hutchinson was able to speak more freely. Her attorney was not pleased, and neither was Trumpworld.
In early June, Passantino recommended that Hutchinson stop complying with the committee’s efforts, including an anticipated fourth interview. In her book, she writes that she expected but “dreaded” Passantino forcing the issue, worried that she would be putting herself at risk of contempt charges. So, soon after, she contacted Cheney directly. Two months ago, Loudermilk’s subcommittee released some information about this communication, framing it in ethical, not legal, terms.


In a phone conversation with Cheney recounted in Hutchinson’s book, Hutchinson indicated that she intended to represent herself moving forward. Cheney recommended against doing so. When Hutchinson indicated that she’d previously had trouble identifying and affording counsel, Cheney said she would consult with her colleagues and get back to her. The next day she did, offering “contact information for multiple attorneys.” Hutchinson spoke with a number of them, ultimately deciding on attorneys Jody Hunt and Bill Jordan.
Later that month, she sat for another deposition. Freed from the constraints Passantino had encouraged, she offered much more detail on what she’d seen and, more explosively, what she’d been told about Jan. 6, 2021. The select committee quickly scheduled the aforementioned public hearing for June 28. Hutchinson would sit for recorded interviews twice more in September 2022.
The report from Loudermilk’s subcommittee twists Cheney’s role into criminal activity in two ways. The first is that her interactions with Hutchinson are described as “tampering,” citing federal witness-tampering statutes. But those are focused on inhibiting testimony (particularly through force), not on enabling it. What’s more, the report’s important claim that Hutchinson retained Hunt and Jordan “at the recommendation of Representative Cheney” ignores the nuances of the interactions both women describe in their respective books.


Much of Loudermilk’s report centers on discrepancies between Hutchinson’s testimony and the testimony of others, discrepancies that are often in part because (as Hutchinson always represented) her testimony included secondhand information. But because the subcommittee presents Hutchinson’s testimony as intentionally false, the second recommended charge against Cheney proposes that she intentionally orchestrated Hutchinson’s testimony so that the witness could provide that false information.
In a statement offered in response to the Loudermilk report, Cheney wrote that “[n]o reputable lawyer, legislator or judge would take [the allegations] seriously.” And that’s probably true. But the report’s recommendation for an FBI probe will most probably be taken seriously by the incoming head of the FBI — if not Trump first choice, fervent loyalist Kash Patel, then whoever ends up being confirmed by the Senate.
Trump sent his Capitol Hill allies an unsubtle signal: Cheney must pay, even beyond her Trump-orchestrated ouster from the House. Loudermilk and his subcommittee were no doubt cognizant of that signal when they upgraded their allegations against Cheney from ethical to legal ones. And now Trump’s incoming FBI director has a trivial predicate, in case he even sought one, to start the fishing expedition that Loudermilk and Trump endorse.

"It's unusual for judges to do this sort of thing under any circumstances. But I suppose if this was ‘Romeo and Juliet,’ if this was some recognized, established classic or something, it might be different. But this is obviously an advocacy production, so for a Supreme Court justice to participate in advocacy on an issue that is currently in the courts, and at least broadly speaking, before her, I think it's a huge mistake," he said.

The musical, called "& Juliet," features prominent LGBTQ+ themes and nonbinary characters. The musical begins where Shakespeare's original ends. Instead of dying by suicide for love, Juliet chooses to forge her own path, challenging traditional gender roles. On its website, "& Juliet" is described as a "hilarious new musical" that "flips the script on the greatest love story ever told."

Here is Cavill and Adams' successors:

WILTON, Iowa (AP) — Every year the U.S. egg industry kills about 350 million male chicks because, while the fuzzy little animals are incredibly cute, they will never lay eggs, so have little monetary value.

That longtime practice is changing, thanks to new technology that enables hatcheries to quickly peer into millions of fertilized eggs and spot male embryos, then grind them up for other uses before they mature into chicks. The system began operating this month in Iowa at the nation’s largest chick hatchery, which handles about 387,000 eggs each day.

“We now have ethically produced eggs we can really feel good about,” said Jörg Hurlin, managing director of Agri Advanced Technologies, the German company that spent more than a decade developing the SUV-sized machine that can separate eggs by sex.

Even Americans who are careful to buy cage free or free range eggs typically aren’t aware that hundreds of millions of male chicks are killed each year, usually when they are only a day old. Most of the animals are culled through a process called maceration that uses whirling blades to nearly instantly kill the baby birds — something that seems horrifying but that the industry has long claimed is the most humane alternative.


“Does the animal suffer? No because it’s instantaneous death. But it’s not pretty because it’s a series of rotating blades,” said Suzanne Millman, a professor at Iowa State University who focuses on animal welfare.

Chick culling is an outgrowth of a poultry industry that for decades has raised one kind of chicken for eggs and another for meat. Egg-laying chickens are too scrawny to profitably be sold for meat, so the male chicks are ground up and used as additives for other products.

It wasn’t until European governments began passing laws that outlawed maceration that companies started puzzling out how to determine chicken sex before the chicks can hatch. Several companies can now do that, but unlike most competitors, AAT’s machine doesn’t need to pierce the shell and instead uses a bright light and sensitive cameras to detect an embryo’s sex by noting feather shading. Males are white, and females are dark.

The machine, called Cheggy, can process up to 25,000 eggs an hour, a pace that can accommodate the massive volume seen at hatcheries in the U.S. Besides the Cheggy machine in the small eastern Iowa city of Wilton, an identical system has been installed in Texas, both at hatcheries owned by Hy-Line North America.


The process has one key limitation: It works only on brown eggs because male and female chicks in white eggs have similar-colored feathers.

That’s not a huge hindrance in Europe, where most eggs sold at groceries are brown. But in the U.S., white shell eggs make up about 81% of sales, according to the American Egg Board. Brown shell eggs are especially sought by people who buy cage-free, free-range and organic varieties.

Hurlin said he thinks his company will develop a system to tell the sex of embryos in white eggs within five years, and other companies also are working to meet what’s expected to be a growing demand.

Eggs from hens that were screened through the new system will supply NestFresh Eggs, a Southern California-based business that distributes organic eggs produced by small operations across the country. The eggs will begin showing up on store shelves in mid-July and NestFresh executive vice president Jasen Urena said his company will begin touting the new chick-friendly process on cartons and with a larger marketing effort.


“It’s a huge jump in animal welfare,” Urena said. “We’ve done so much work over the years on the farms. How do we make the lives of these chickens better? Now we’re able to step back and go into the hatching phase.”

Urena said the new system was more expensive but any price increase on store shelves would be minimal.

The animal welfare group Mercy for Animals has tried to draw attention to chick culling for more than a decade in hopes of ending the practice.

Walter Sanchez-Suarez, the group’s animal behavior and welfare scientist, said laws in Europe outlawing chick culling and new efforts to change the practice in the U.S. are wonderful developments. However, Sanchez-Suarez sees them as a small step toward a larger goal of ending large-scale animal agriculture and offering alternatives to meat, eggs and dairy.

“Mercy for Animals thinks this is an important step, but poultry producers shouldn’t stop there and should try to see all the additional problems that are associated to this type of practice in egg production,” he said. “Look for alternatives that are better for animals themselves and human consumers.”

JUCO national title game.

Very impressive.

I hope he gets a shot at the next level.

The Des Moines Register ran another article on him earlier this week. It was paywall though.

Well, here’s to hoping materials used to build Summit Carbon Solutions’ carbon pipeline are much thicker than its executives’ skin.



Summit sent out at least eight letters in recent weeks warning critics of the pipeline project to retract statements it contends are false and damaging. Otherwise, they will face legal action for compensatory or punitive damages.


This is a very strange strategy, given the timing.




Iowa’s Utilities Commission has granted Summit a permit to build 700 miles of pipeline in Iowa, which would transport carbon from ethanol plants for storage underground in North Dakota. The commission also allowed Summit to use eminent domain authority to grab land for its right of way from reluctant landowners.


Summit is craving billions of dollars in tax credits for carbon sequestration. It hopes to prop up the ethanol industry by making corn gas a more marketable low-carbon fuel. Raising the corn needed to meet demand will continue fouling Iowa waterways.


North Dakota recently approved Summit’s permit and gave permission for carbon storage in the state. Minnesota gave its OK. Nebraska? No problem.


All that’s left is South Dakota, where to company is making a second try for a permit. Iowa’s permit is contingent on a South Dakota permit. All the marbles are at stake.





ADVERTISING


And yet, Summit can’t resist smiting a handful critics.


One letter went to Sierra Club Iowa Chapter Conservation Program Associate Jessica Mazour. She was quoted in a news article arguing Summit is “in collusion” with the utilities commission to “take away democracy and people’s rights.”


Mazour has closely followed this saga since the beginning. Her perspective is informed and credible.


So they don’t like collusion? Let’s go with really cozy.


Among the leaders of Summit is General Counsel Jess Vilsack, son of the U.S. Sec. of Agriculture and former Iowa governor Tom Vilsack. Another former governor, Terry Branstad, is also on board. Summit’s VP of government affairs is Jake Ketzner, who was chief of staff for Gov. Kim Reynolds and as a longtime aide to Branstad.


The guy who spearheaded the whole deal is Bruce Rastetter, an agri-magnate who has given a pile of money to Republicans. Since 2015, Rastetter has donated more than $175,000 to Reynolds in direct and in-kind contributions.


All three Utilities Commission members were appointed by Reynolds.


Another letter, according to The Gazette’s Jared Strong, went to Robert Nazario of the Free Soil Foundation. He’s quoted about the possibility a plume of CO2 from a leak could kill people. But Summit contends no one has ever been killed.


That’s a relief. Here’s a report by NPR on a pipeline break in Satartia, Miss.


“As the carbon dioxide moved through the rural community, more than 200 people evacuated and at least 45 people were hospitalized. Cars stopped working, hobbling emergency response. People lay on the ground, shaking and unable to breathe. First responders didn't know what was going on.


“’It looked like you were going through the zombie apocalypse," says Jack Willingham, emergency director for Yazoo County.’”


But, hey, no one died.


Summit has even threatened to sue former U.S. Rep. Steve King.


"These are just simply threats that say, 'Shut up or we'll sue you because we don't like the truth and what it does to damage our business model,'" King said during a recent interview on Eastern Iowa KXEL radio.


King is right. This is using fear to demand silence. Don’t listen to them.
