This being CNN and a member of the mainstream media, we fully expect them to miss the ‘why’ of its success (or perhaps begrudgingly know why and not speak of it). Never fear, Twitter is here to help.

We’re beginning to detect a pattern here. But we could use one more clue.

Two words: Scott and Jennings

It’s fun to watch both sides.

You interrupt Scott et al., way too much.

Stay quiet for even better ratings 🤫
