A few years back, CNN's Brian Stelter invited Glenn Beck onto his show to talk about why Americans have been losing trust in the media, but just minutes into the segment, Glenn was infuriated by Stelter's gleeful "gotcha" question about the future of Blaze Media.
Fast forward to today, and we see Stelter desperately trying to defend his company's $300 million disaster as the cable network's streaming service, CNN+, plans to shut down less than a month after it launched. Meanwhile, Blaze Media has become the largest right-of-center streaming service in the world. So, can you really blame Glenn for enjoying "a little glee" after hearing about CNN+'s colossal failure?
