CNN staffers ‘deeply frustrated’ as looming budget cuts, layoffs set to impact struggling network [Video]

CNN staffers are bracing for impact in the new year as significant budget cuts and layoffs are likely to rock the entire network. 

“I am overall very sad and deeply frustrated,” one longtime CNN staffer told Fox News Digital. “Feelings which are pervasive throughout the organization among those who have been here a long time and feel a deep personal connection to having helped build the organization.”

The CNN source indicated that the layoffs would be implemented “by March” and that they’ll be “very meaningful” to the rank and file at the network. 

“It’s a time of a complete and utter business model overhaul and chaos. Extremely difficult even under the best circumstances,” the CNN staffer said.
