New yorker for decades, the author of many books including one about ted turner the creator of cnn. ken, great to see you this morning. thanks, brian. what can you tell us about zucker and zsalov and what zucker was thinking about his future. my understanding is there was a world where zucker may not have been at cnn much longer anyway? well, remember, as you know better than i jeff zucker was planning to step down at the end of last year, chose not to after the merger announcement. he and zsalov are close friends. not polite friends, they re close friends and they talk and golf regularly. but when i interviewed zsalov in late november at a public forum at the paly center i asked him about cnn, i asked him about fox. he described fox news as an advocacy network and he talked about the importance of facts and suggested there was too much commentary, right wing commentary on fox.
