Part 2/8:
A striking metaphor has emerged to describe CNN's current predicament: it seems to be on the verge of submerging into a metaphorical "woke sea." The network's leadership, particularly Mark Thompson, has put forth solutions that seem less than adequate given the gravity of the situation. Critics have drawn parallels between the suggested fixes and absurd comparisons, stating that using a dolly to transport a whale is no way to address a sinking ship. The frustration echoed in commentary is palpable, with many asking whether CNN can truly salvage its reputation and relevance in the contemporary news environment.
