Uh-oh: If the latest reports are accurate, CNN is having major buyer's remorse over CNN+

Well, if this doesn’t just leave you absolutely gutted and weeping, we don’t know what will.

At the end of March, we learned the devastating news that CNN+ employees were already bracing for layoffs as early as May. Apparently the promise of extra CNN content that comes with a price tag just wasn’t exciting potential viewers the way the network had hoped it would.

You should probably sit down for this: evidently, the situation has only gotten more dire in recent weeks.

You hate to see it. Boy, do you hate to see it.

Talk about money well spent!

Better question: How did CNN+ ever think their gamble could work out any other possible way? Failure was inevitable. It was baked into the CNN+ pie. No one — and we mean no one — should be surprised by any of this. OK, maybe Brian Stelter is surprised.

It’s OK to be snarky! Be as snarky as you like! Sometimes snark is warranted. And when it comes to CNN, it’s always warranted.

Honestly, at this point, it doesn’t even really matter whose brilliant idea this was. We’re just glad that someone had the idea, because it has provided us with countless hours of endless entertainment. And Lord knows we can use as many laughs as we can get these days.

Perfect. Just beautiful.

Tough break, CNN.

Maybe journos get a discount and don’t actually have to pay for the service at all. Wouldn’t that be just … *chef’s kiss*?
