Brian Stelter, hosting his final Reliable Sources on Sunday. He will depart from the network after working for the company for over 15 years. He is still under contract for three more years and is entitled to $5 million for his work.

Stelter a critic of Fox, OANN, Breitbart and Washed Up 45's propaganda was axed by Warner Bros Discovery and its far-right investors John Malone and David Zaslav. 

They were responsible for Stelter being fired out the cannon. Did Stelter do anything wrong?

No.

It was pure politics and shady backroom antics of Washed Up 45 and his allies.

Stelter was holding the junk food media accountable. But of course, the far-right saw this an attack on "free speech" and felt that Stelter was attacking conservatives too much. 

Malone, a prominent shareholder of CNN’s parent company Warner Bros. Discovery, during a discussion about the future of the network. Malone denied being directly involved in the cancellation of host Brian Stelter’s show, but has been open about his desire to see CNN become more centrist.

“I would like to see CNN evolve back to the kind of journalism that it started with, and actually have journalists, which would be unique and refreshing,” said the cable TV pioneer and longtime chairman of Liberty Media, which is a major shareholder in Discovery. “I do believe good journalism could have a role in this future portfolio that Discovery-TimeWarner’s going to represent.”

Current and former CNN workers say Malone is a jerk. He barely watches the network and all the crap he knows about the network is through Fox.
