   As we watch CNN boost the idea that Kamala is not Black, it would be good if we all talked anoit how it was a bad idea to let a conservative pro-Trump media exec effectively buy and take over CNN, fire liberals, and hire conservative journalists and execs.

     The pro-Trump media exec is John C Malone, who played a big role in the WBD merger and now has large influence on the board. Malone got his protege David Zaslav - another pro-Trump conservative - hired in a top role.
     And Zaslav fired liberals and hired rightwingers.
