So Licht is out at CNN.

But does it actually matter in practical terms?

He didn't come up with the Fox Lite approach on his own. Zaslav and the corporate owners wanted that - they still seem to think it can woo over Fox viewers.

If the owners think "coddling MAGA = objectivity" is the way to go and that Licht just sold it badly, CNN's collapsing trajectory won't shift.
