Fox News anchor Chris Wallace, one of the few high-profile news personalities who retained a reputation of integrity as the channel he worked for leaned hard into right-wing and conspiratorial programming, announced Sunday that he is departing the network and joining CNN+ to host a weekday show. [snip] Shortly after his announcement, CNN announced that Wallace will join CNN+, the news organization's streaming product launching in early 2022, to host a show featuring interviews with newsmakers "across politics, business, sports and culture."

This is guaranteed to be one of the worst decisions in history. No one watches CNN for free, why would they pay for it? They won’t, of course. CNN likely thinks that they’re getting some moderate with gravitas to burnish their image, but all they’re getting is a smug, self-important elitist who will do nothing to change what everyone knows that they are. He deserves this black hole that he signed on to fly into.

And another thing, given CNN's low viewership, Wallace will finally get the audience he deserves.

If this is CNN's attempt to move to 'hard news' I don't give them much hope. Chris Wallace is an old liberal white guy.

No doubt the viewership on his Fox Sunday morning show was starting to reach CNN levels.
For many years Wallace was obviously a CNN mole in the Fox den.
May he help the CNN ship sink below the waves that much quicker.

It's a win-win situation for FOX and CNN. His move to CNN raises the average IQ at both FOX and CNN.

Here's what happened. The Murdoch's and Susan Whatever, the head of Fox News. called Chris in and sat him down in front of their table. Maybe Chris had his agent with him. "Chris, your contract is up and we have decided to take the Sunday News in a different direction, therefore your contract is not being renewed. Ratings, you know? We thank you for your long and and distinguished service here at Fox and wish you the very best in whatever you pursue. By the way, at this moment, Security is in your office loading your belongings in Hefty bags. Our VP of HR will escort you to the Sixth Avenue door with them as soon as they are done with the packing. Good Luck and Goodbye. Have a nice life!"

Until the media ends its gaslighting campaign to hide the truth of the Wuhan virus origin, CCP hundred-year marathon, stealing of the 2020 election, and use of FBI agent-provocateurs on Jan 6 it is irrelevant who reads the teleprompters on which network. Then next great journalist will come from the ranks of new media like Revolver.news, TheNationalPulse.com, CitizenFreePress.com, PopulistPress.com, and JustTheNews.com. Cable news is a dinosaur waiting to go extinct and anyone who still relies on it for honest information is either a clueless sucker or a leftist cult member.

#1 Oh you'll see him again...all the other networks will have clips of him either screwing up or sucking. This kowpie has been at CNN all along he just didn't know it. He will always attract flies. And he's so excited he keeps having to change his panyliners.

This never works out for those who crave legacy media (left-wing) approval. Chris should talk to Megyn Kelly and seel what leaving Fox did for her career.

Perfect fit......Oh, wait, is Wallace a sexual predator? If not he'll have to pick up a new "skill" to fit in at CNN.

Makes sense. Shep Wallace's political leanings line up perfectly with CNN, and his lack of seriousness on the issues of the day fits well also.

As Johnny Weissmuller used to say, "Ungawa," which is Tarzanese for "get lost, right now!" Wallace is a good Democrat. He made that abundantly clear weekly, and during his disgraceful performance at the pResidential "debate." (Howie Kurtz loved Chris's performance there. He, too, is an obedient Democrat feigning to the center.)

I wish I could unsee his ugly mug but like the little lip gloss gal that left Fox then went to Good Morning America and bombed I wish the same to Mr. Acne face Wallace. It will not be with Wallace at CNN there's a butch, green haired, tattooed, fat girl in the viewing audience that will enjoy Chris's 'fresh face'.

Changed the channel every time I saw him on FOX News...now I won't have to - he'll be joining assless-chaps-Shep at CNN. The 14 people that still watch CNN will love this self-aggrandizing, repulsive, back-stabbing lib snot. Good ridddence.
