Aaron Brown: News is a Business
According to Contact Music, former CNN anchor Aaron Brown complained that the news in this country is a business.
Well, no kidding.
We live in a capitalist society. People have jobs to make money. Business owners have those businesses to make money. And yes, Aaron, television stations are businesses too. I don't know of too many television anchors (or any other reporters, etc.) who work for free because they are more passionate about getting information to the public than paying the rent.
Sounds more like sour grapes over why he left CNN than any concern about how television news is run.

Overall, I can't stand CNN, but between Brown and AC, I would go with Brown.
