You decided to announce your resignation just on a day of Olympics Opening  in London, so the CNN can be let lose and to finally report truth… truth that need no numbers of views to justify its existence… Truth need no profits to give to all… Truth is already so valuable, just being there for all to see and hear, that Truth need no contract with $ signs and multiple zeros behind…

You will, as one who was longing for so long time to expose all these hidden agendas, hidden acts of control over others… You finally reach your day or redemption to self and to God within you…

You finally realized that your shoes were quite big to fill… not because of moneys and riches that were around you… but with a courage to stay on the top till last moment, and to be part of Total Disclosure for all to see… for all to hear, not only from 99% but from 1% as well…

You realize that You are this ONE percent that will show that we are all ONE, anyway… Yes, you walked in 2000$ shoes, while other 2 million have no shoes… And this was a challenge too…

CNN President Jim Walton revealed on Friday that he will leave the network after three decades effective the end of this year, an unexpected departure that follows an announcement that the station is seeing its worst ratings since the early 90s.
Walton will walk away from CNN after spending 30 years building the business up. He’s overseen their operations as president for the last decade, but announced in an email to his staff this week that both CNN and himself need to start working towards something new.
`I’ve been doing this job I’m in now for 10 years and I’m ready for a change,” Walton writes. “CNN needs new thinking. That starts with a new leader who brings a different perspective, different experiences and a new plan, one who will build on our great foundation and will commit to seeing it through. And I’m ready for a change. I have interests to explore and I want to give myself time to do it.”
Walton’s announcement made headlines immediately after he broke the news, but although his decision was unexpected, isn’t an unusual maneuver given the network’s waning ratings. CNN’s US channel experienced its worst ratings ever for a second quarter recently, with some of its shows seeing viewership drop by as much as 41 percent. The network was extensively revamped their shows during the last year, installing Piers Morgan as a prime-time host and shuffling two of its hallmark anchors, Anderson Cooper and Wolf Blitzer, into new time slots and shows, and recruiting CNBC TV personality Erin Burnett after more than five years at one of CNN’s top competitors.
In a statement responding to the negative polling, CNN issued a press release last month saying, “As a news organization our ratings reflect the news environment much more so than the other networks. That said, we always want higher ratings but not at the expense of nonpartisan, quality journalism.”
On his decision to leave, Walton says that “There’s always pressure” and acknowledges the network’s failures as of late.
“I’ve been doing this a long time and CNN has had its ups and downs, like all companies have had ups and downs. I feel really strongly about a number of parts of this company. We’re having a really strong year internationally and in mobile. It’s clear there’s a lot of spotlight on CNN’s U.S. performance and it’s reasonable that there is that spotlight.”
