CNN is expected to lay off hundreds of its roughly 3,500 employees on Thursday, according to a report citing sources familiar with the matter. The reported personnel changes are intended to help the cable news outlet focus on a more “global digital audience” as the media landscape changes, insiders told CNBC, speaking on the condition of anonymity. CNN CEO Mark Thompson recently claimed parent company Warner Bros. Discovery had committed at least $70 million to enhance digital operations. A representative for CNN declined to comment and recommended outlets reporting on the layoffs “wait for facts” before reaching any conclusions. While the rumored job cuts won’t impact CNN’s most recognizable names, changes could mean more shows being produced out of Atlanta — where CNN began and where production can be done at a lower cost — as opposed to Washington, D.C. or New York City, CNBC reported. Changes could also be coming to the schedule. Former CNN media reporter Oliver Darcy said last week there’d been buzz about moving CNN stalwart Wolf Blitzer from early evenings to mornings. He also said the network was considered moving chief domestic correspondent and former White House reporter Jim Acosta to the graveyard shift. Though his ratings are relatively good, Acosta has frequently clashed with surrogates for President Trump, who returned to the White House on Monday. Cable TV ratings leader Fox News — a MAGA alternative to CNN and NBC News — received a big boost from Trump’s return to power. That outlet has aired television’s 500 most-watched news shows since Trump was reelected Nov. 5, according to Mediaite. CNBC said layoffs could also be coming later this week to its parent network, NBC News, though to a much lesser degree.
