Bernie Sanders Wants Jeff Zucker’s Job as CNN Boss

If Bernie Sanders isn’t the Democratic presidential candidate by the time the general elections rolls around, it appears he has a fallback plan. Unfortunately for Sanders, the job is already occupied by CNN Worldwide president Jeff Zucker.

During Friday’s Democratic presidential forum on MSNBC, Rachel Maddow asked Sanders what his non-political dream job would be.

“President of CNN,” Sanders answered before elaborating. “If I was president of CNN, trust me, the way media deals with politics would radically change.”

Zucker responded with a simple question, “can he start Monday?”
