Who is NEXT on the CNN chopping block? Here’s a list of likeliest losers from an inside source.

by Fred T

When people like Jon Nicosia said that Brian Stelter wouldn’t survive the shake-up at CNN, media and blue checks laughed. But they were wrong, and this Sunday is the fat, dumb and bald guy’s last at-bat for the network.

But the big question is who is NEXT? Names have been floating for days, with Don Lemon topping most lists and even trending on social media for the apparent nationwide consensus. If not that he IS going to go, at the least that he SHOULD.

But there are some other names on the list. No one on air right now covered themselves in glory during the last five years. In fact they’ve uniformly lost their minds and their ethics.

So most of the names won’t be a surprise on that score, although some will probably seem very unlikely targets for the housecleaning by Licht and the new owners who are, let’s face it, not conservatives or Republicans but interested in the bottom line for the failing network.

Jon Nicosia’s source – and remember he was right about Stelter – has a few of those names handy for us, which I will now list in order of most to least likely to go in MY opinion.

Jim Acosta
John King
Brianna Keilar
Don Lemon
Alisyn Camerota
John Berman
Jake Tapper.

Keep in mind that it’s not about who is the most ideological, necessarily, but the most or least likely to get the ax from Chris Licht and friends. That means ratings are a factor.

Here’s Nicosia’s reporting:

This reply speaks to me:

I may not watch the network, but I absolutely LOVE to watch it fall apart, ya know?

Let me hear your guesses below.
