CNN management greatly concerned with defamation suit's outcome as trial heats up, insider says
Fox News
A CNN insider says the defamation suit embroiling the network is a major concern of upper management as staffers grapple with low ratings and morale.
Now, it's also in a public defamation trial about a 2021 segment that plaintiff Zach Young alleges smeared him by implying he illegally profited when helping people flee Afghanistan on the "black market" during the Biden administration's military withdrawal from the country.
"It's a big concern of upper management," a CNN insider told Fox News Digital. "All the damning stuff, text messages, etc., has already been published. So I don't think there's concern in terms of exposure. But I think there's definitely concern about the outcome. It seems very likely that CNN is going to have an enormous payout at the end of this."
