The “Hillary Beats Cheney” item below was the first item in last night’s Brit Hume “Grapevine” segment as found online. This one is the last item from that same segment:
In a memo to employees last week, CEO Jim Clifton praised the past relationship with CNN, but said “it is not the right alignment for our future,“ adding, “CNN has far fewer viewers than it did in the past, and we feel that our brand was getting lost and diluted.“
But CNN is calling the memo “unprofessional” and “in every respect untrue,“ saying Clifton told CNN he was ending the partnership because “the CNN brand was so dominant that Gallup wasn’t getting the attention for the polls that they wanted.“ » Brit Hume: Breaking Up Is Hard To Do
