which is why CBS/Paramount is trying so hard to buy it as part of its bundle with Warner.

Their "pilot test" was what was learned when Sinclair bought a pile of TV stations and then forced a set RW script/narrative on all the local anchors of the stations they owned.

And it's not like CNN hasn't already been bending backwards to be RW so much that their heads are looking forward between their knees...
