CNN's New Streaming Service, CNN Plus, Is Already Shutting Down
New parent company, Warner Bros. Discovery, decided to pull the plug on the streaming service after a slow first month.

Discovery has already decided to already shut down the service at the end of April, new CNN chief executive Chris Licht announced in a memo to employees on Thursday afternoon that was obtained by The Washington Post. However, the network found difficulty convincing enough customers to pay the $5.99 monthly cost for the service, which offers a mixture of live and on-demand programming, including a large library of old shows from hosts like the late Anthony Bourdain. The network has not released any data on the number of people who have subscribed, but early media reports suggested that the number was lower than to be expected for a service that has cost more than $100 million to create.Read more of this story at Slashdot.
