Discovery <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/warner-bros-discovery-is-shutting-down-cnn-after-new-streaming-service-struggled-to-attract-viewers-report\">announced<\/a> last week that subscription streaming service CNN+ would be scrapped \u2014 leaving Wallace, who exited an 18-year career at Fox News for CNN, in a particularly bad spot.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, I have to ask a question,\u201d Wallace <a href=\"https:\/\/newsbusters.org\/blogs\/nb\/nicholas-fondacaro\/2022\/04\/28\/chris-wallace-embarrassingly-begs-movie-about-his-trump\">asked<\/a> his guest, Hollywood producer Brian Grazer. \u201cWhen we got to know each other a little better, you said to me one time that you thought there was a possible project in Trump\/Wallace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Grazer appeared to be stunned by Wallace bringing up the subject during the CNN+ show.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI did. I didn\u2019t know you\u2019d bring that up. Umm\u2014,\u201d the producer responded.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDid you really believe that,\u201d\u00a0Wallace pressed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour interviews with him were perfect,\u201d\u00a0Grazer answered Wallace in the affirmative.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, okay. Thank you,\u201d the former Fox News host gushed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause you were able to, without any chip on your shoulder, you were able to talk directly and get direct answers like a little version of that,\u201d\u00a0Grazer continued.<\/p>\n<p>Wallace then seemed to try to pin down Grazer to make the project about his interviews happen, <a href=\"https:\/\/newsbusters.org\/blogs\/nb\/nicholas-fondacaro\/2022\/04\/28\/chris-wallace-embarrassingly-begs-movie-about-his-trump\">according<\/a> to transcript from NewsBusters:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>WALLACE: So, maybe we\u2019ll talk after the\u2014<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>GRAZER: Yeah.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>WALLACE: \u2014 the thing about going to do it.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cJust to do it live in a stadium would be amazing,\u201d Grazer suggested, an option Wallace seemed to like.<\/p>\n<p>CNN+\u2019s short-lived run hit Wallace hard. In an interview this week, the host called himself a \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/ive-been-a-victim-chris-wallace-says-hes-in-good-shape-despite-cnn-implosion\">victim<\/a>\u201d of the debacle.<\/p>\n<p id=\"AV608bfd1f328b2f32b531a418\">\u201cIt\u2019s an interesting thing and I\u2019ve been a victim of all of this in the last week,\u201d Wallace said, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/ive-been-a-victim-chris-wallace-says-hes-in-good-shape-despite-cnn-implosion\">The Daily Wire<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe idea was you\u2019ve got to get a foothold in the streaming world because that\u2019s where the future of news off the mainstream networks is going to be,\u201d the 74-year-old continued. \u201cNow you have some equally smart people that have come in with a diametrically opposed view, these are the new bosses at CNN+ because of [the Warner Bros. Discovery merger] who have come to the conclusion that to have a narrow niche product like a news streaming service doesn\u2019t work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have absolutely no idea which is right and wrong, but the Discovery people are in charge and so they made the decision,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/ive-been-a-victim-chris-wallace-says-hes-in-good-shape-despite-cnn-implosion\">\u2018I\u2019ve Been A Victim\u2019: Chris Wallace Says He\u2019s \u2018In Good Shape\u2019 Despite CNN+\u00a0Implosion<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Related:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/warner-bros-discovery-is-shutting-down-cnn-after-new-streaming-service-struggled-to-attract-viewers-report\">Warner Bros.
