Episode description

The ousting of the CNN CEO Chris Licht on the heels of a damning magazine profile is just the latest symptom of an old order’s waning adroitness across legacy media, digital media, and social media. This week on Inside the Hive, Delia Cai and Hive staff writer Charlotte Klein discuss the prescient Licht profile and what it reveals about media’s larger state of crisis—one where Tucker Carlson has turned to Twitter, once promising players like BuzzFeed News and VICE have failed, and everything just kind of feels like the depressing Succession finale.
