Johannesburg, South Africa –  The 2016 U.S. Presidential Election is over.  At 10:12 p.m, eastern time last night, the most respected and credible cable news network in the world called the election and declared Hillary Clinton the winner.

Republicans and the red states are just now just waking up to the news that they had lost yet another election without even trying.

Soon after calling the election, CNN reported that President Hillary Clinton has arrived in Johannesburg, South Africa, to join President Barack Obama and former Presidents George W. Bush and Jimmy Carter at ceremonies honoring the late Nelson Mandela.

The Adobo Chronicles has learned that elaborate plans for Clinton’s inauguration in January 2017 are now being put together. No less than future First Man Bill Clinton is heading up the inaugural committee.

CNN HIRES KIM KARDASHIAN FOR PRIME TIME

Atlanta, Georgia –  After almost a year of tinkering, CNN Worldwide President Jeff Zucker has concluded that a news channel cannot subsist on news alone. So he is planning much broader changes for the network—including a prime-time shakeup that’s likely to make CNN traditionalists cringe.

In the first of what was expected to be a series of announcements on new programming, Zucker – who admits his name sounds like “hooker,”  revealed that CNN has signed a 3-year contract with reality TV personality Kim Kardashian to anchor a prime time hour-long show titled “KKG 24/7.” Kardasian will discuss with invited pundits the latest gossip in politics, entertainment and world events.” “KKG” is the acronym for Kim Kardashian Gossip.

“KKG 24/7” will reportedly replace Anderson Cooper’s “AC 360.” It isn’t known whether “AC 360” will go off the air.

Last month, The Adobo Chronicles reported that Cooper has been nominated by President Obama to be the next U.S. ambassador to the Philippines, after his outstanding live coverage of the aftermath of Typhoon Haiyan. Now that Cooper has been bumped off CNN, will he finally become Ambassador Cooper?
