So, this is the kind of think I was kind of hoping for - CNN is reorganizing and increasing funding for an investigative reporting unit:
"CNN needs to be an organization that breaks news, not just an organization that covers breaking news or talks about breaking news on television," Andrew Morse, the executive vice president of editorial for CNN/U.S. and general manager of CNN digital worldwide, told NPR. There's no better way to do that than to invest in investigative reporting. The legendary investigative reporters Carl Bernstein and James Steele, both Pulitzer Prize winners, will serve as contributing editors to advise the team on their work and executives on hiring." I am not expressing confidence in the quality of what CNN will do with this, just noting that, as with the Washington Post, there may be a growing judgement that a perceived increased commitment to actual journalism might also be good bussiness. http://www.npr.org/2017/01/30/512457231/cnn-beefs-up-investigative-reporting -- Sent from Gmail Mobile -- -- TV or Not TV ....
