CNN+ was doomed for other reasons. They actually cut their impending losses. Nobody is going to subscribe to a pay news streaming channel. Netflix is hemorrhaging subscribers as well. Too greedy with subscription cost and now they are talking about cracking down on password sharing. Amazon Prime charging $139/yr? I won't renew next year and I'm not alone. If the South African Emerald Mine Apartheid Heir thinks he's going to win with a subscription based pay Twitter, that's a losing proposition as well.
