Big cuts are reportedly expected to be coming down the pipes for CNN’s new subscription streaming service, CNN+, after the service failed to garner even 10,000 daily users.“Fewer than 10,000 people are using CNN+ on a daily basis two weeks into its existence,” CNBC reported. “To put that daily user number in perspective, CNN’s cable network suffered a sharp decline in viewership last year but still rang up an average of 773,000 total viewers a day.”The report noted that there is widespread skepticism over whether there is enough demand to even sustain the service moving forward.

It's one thing to count people sitting in an airport not paying attention to the TV screen as "viewers." It's quite another thing to expect them to pay for it.

CNN+ is Jeff Zucker’s ego programming…and like Zucker, it stinks.

I still want to know who thought there was an audience willing to pay for more CNN! Talk about wishful thinking. If the parent CNN wasn't included in all cable deals, in waiting room and airports, it would have died decades ago. No one is watching the free version, so who would pay to watch this?

Stupid idea from stupid people. i hope they all lose much of their wealth. Let me put to them bluntly.
Nobody likes you. Nobody will ever like you. You're nothing but propaganda for the DNC and the vegetable-in-chief, King Poopy-Pants.

What you mean millions of people across the globe aren’t waking up every day just to hear what interests Chris Wallace?

What happened to the uncounted attempts to launch a Talk Radio service competing with Rush Limbaugh? Same result, same reason.

CNN: Lies built on lies, constructed by professional liars, to lead astray the sheep and fools who assiduously watched.
YEAH, they’re the ones who were happy to trade “mean tweets” for Joe Biden’s CLOWARD-PIVEN scheme.
Can you hear me NOW, nitwits?
Buh Bye CNN.
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out of our lives.

CNN has been massively hemorrhaging viewers on their free cable site since Lyin' Joe bidet stole his office.
What type of "logic" told them that anyone would pay for their horrible, biased, BS reporting?!?!?!?!? Oops, how silly of me. They are uber-lie-berals. They are incapable of understanding or applying logic, reason, or facts to any subject. They just understand feelings, and it just felt like this was somehow a good idea!!! Yeah, that explains it!!!

I really don’t understand why somebody in marketing at CNN couldn’t see that their audience is so low for their free propaganda why anybody would pay for the same sh....stuff. Ignore the bias...do they not have any exec that realizes that this is a loser. Apparently they are so blinded by their attempts to protect the radical leftist agenda that they are heading for bankruptcy. What are they teaching in business school these days? Wait, it’s not business. Keep it up. My stock portfolio will never buy any of your woke companies.

Wonder if Chris Wallace's last report will be about him standing in an unemployment line?

What I read in the past was this launch was on shaky ground from the beginning. One reason given was , the high salaries for talent ate into the ability to financially support a large scale adverting campaign and media push. The things I also read made it feel like that CNN needed CNN + to be successful in order to save the company. Chris Wallace should have been smarter.
