When I was a publisher of CNN, I took responsibility for the actions of the network.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I have to take responsibility for anything that happened within its businesses.
CNN canceled all the shows I was on. They're going in a different direction, but that's their privilege. They own the business.
CNN, a part of the Time Warner company, lives for news about everything and anyone. In the office, the bosses openly discuss the need for a diverse staff and diverse stories, and each time we draw new viewers, the effort intensifies.
The responsibility that I feel is to do as good a job as a journalist as I can possibly do.
My mother was married to one of the greatest newsmen of all times. CNN was built out of his idealism and his recognition that, in a global age, we needed greater understanding of the world around us.
The most important responsibility we have as journalists is to question those who are in power. I honestly believe that.
My role at NBC was president of 'NBC News.' I had that role for eight years.
I love CNN. I love the Cartoon Network. I mean, I thought these things up.
A news organization has a much different responsibility. I might not be telling you the whole story. I might not be telling you a story in a manner that is properly sophisticated.
When I started 'CNN,' I made the decision to stay out of endorsing candidates, and let the doers make up their own minds about politics, that it wasn't going to come from me.
