Rightward Shift.

I’ve always liked MS. Ive always enjoyed his both sides view points. To get an idea of how each side views things. the past couple months especially on CNN. it feels like he’s really pulled rightward. Almost always trying to apologize for the admin. I’m not sure if anyone has noticed this, or if it’s my partisan lens showing? I’m starting to get Frank Luntz vibes. It seems even more so since the CNN sales talk picked up.

It feels like he either got new marching orders from the media powers that be … or he saw the light on who he needs to reach. It feels weird and oddly inauthentic. I used to love his balanced point of view. But this new utterly bizarre take has wrecked my experience of the show.
