Dylan Byers

Wednesday’s dispatch from Puck’s Dylan Byers fetched some comical bits about the fallout from ABC anchor and former Clinton official George Stephanopoulos’s hidden camera admission he doesn’t believe President Biden is fit to (or can) serve another four years, calling him a “consummate professional” who’s not only “ever-disciplined” and “often soft-spoken”, but an “institutionalist” disturbed…

Puck senior partner Dylan Byers had a story out Wednesday night filled with some juicy details on supposed infighting amongst the Biden White House press corps. As he explained it in the subhead for his story, the post-debate fallout consists of the journalists who cover the cognitively failing Biden “pissed—furious at the White House, annoyed at each other—and ready to take the gloves off.”…

Posted late Wednesday, Puck founding partner Dylan Byers wrote that, based on multiple anonymous conversations, chicken-hearted members of the Biden White House press corps have purposefully been refusing to make President Biden’s mental decline an issue and instead kept it from the American public so as not to lose access to Biden officials and/or incur their wrath.

Publicly revealed on Wednesday, WarnerBros. Discovery tapped former BBC Director-General and former CEO/president of The New York Times Company to lead CNN as it continues to struggle not only with ratings, but improving its image from the days of the Jeffrey Zucker-led circus that lived for spewing venom at Donald Trump and the GOP writ large.

Having published a piece in April detailing Don Lemon’s decades of insufferable behavior inside CNN, Variety’s Tatiana Siegel blew the lid Monday night off Jeff Zucker, the former CNN boss and puppetmaster whose allies engaged in a blatant smear campaign against his replacement, Chris Licht. Siegel explained how Zucker and a team of allies undermined Licht and Warner Bros. Discovery…

Puck’s Dylan Byers ended last week with some scuttlebutt on his ex-employer following the axing of CNN boss Chris Licht that, as we’ve repeatedly documented (see here and here), came down to a Mean Girls-like disgust and smear campaign by the litany of CNN employees Licht and Warner Bros. Discovery head honcho David Zaslav not only failed to jettison for loyalty to former puppetmaster…

In news first broken Wednesday morning by former CNN media reporter Dylan Byers of Puck, embattled CNN chief executive Chris Licht is stepping down from the network and parent company Warner Bros. Discovery after a tumultuous tenure marked by his inability to have buy in from a far-left employee base still loyal to their former puppetmaster, Jeff Zucker.

A former CNN media reporter, Puck News’s Dylan Byers wrote Wednesday night that CNN is currently “a seismic mess” and in a state of “depleted morale” and “overwhelming sense of frustration and resentment” with employees enraged by boss Chris Licht in general and, specifically, his decision to host a town hall with former President Trump.  The employees remain hellbent on running the asylum as…

Puck’s Dylan Byers had a new dispatch Wednesday night on the drama inside Chris Licht’s CNN and his failing project, CNN This Morning, triggered by co-host Don Lemon’s squabbles with co-hosts and controversial comments. At the end of his nearly-2,300-word article, Byers dropped ominous news for the longtime CNN personality: one more screw-up like last week’s sexist smear of 2024 GOP…

Chris Licht’s CNN tenure has been nothing short of a disappointment. Having promised to tone down the laser focus on only a few stories a day, partisan sensationalism, and snark that dominated Jeffrey Zucker’s reign of terror, Licht implied wholesale changes were in order. Not only has he failed thus far, but the inmates remain in charge of the asylum (despite layoffs and the ushering out of…

According to Puck News’s Dylan Byers on Wednesday, a real Psaki Show could soon become a reality as CNN and MSNBC have been jockeying to hire the current White House press secretary as a full-time host (and not as a commentator, like she did from 2017 to 2020 at CNN). Byers — formerly of NBCNews.com and the CNN Media team — wrote that, “earlier this month,” Psaki had respective lunch meetings…

Puck News reporter Dylan Byers had another nauseating piece Monday about the post-Jeff Zucker fallout at CNN and, after a clownish meeting with the D.C. bureau that warned his ouster was dangerous for democracy and left CNNers brainless without Zucker’s edicts, it was New York City’s turn. And, apparently, Zucker’s sudden resignation has been, according to Alisyn Camerota, “a huge shockwave to…

Through a series of stories this week, it was evident CNN’s current staff have no interest in being salvaged as a serious news organization and anything other than a far-left propaganda outlet worthy of being some combination of mocked and ignored. Instead of seeking to move on from disgraced former boss Jeff Zucker, they’ve tried to canonize him as a tent pole of American democracy.

On Friday, desperate to deflect blame from his administration's failure to increase vaccination rates across the country, President Biden recklessly accused Facebook of “killing people” due to the spread of misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines on various social media platforms. On Monday, MSNBC's Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski rushed to agree with the President's attempted…
