I see what you mean now... CNN is paid by us via state support of airports? Good point.
The article says CNN pays airports.
Does money go both ways?
CNN pays the airports.
Here’s a link to some details about the deal with the Minneapolis airport:

So airports get money from state AND from CNN.
Your can buy a device that will shut off any tv in the area

Fun game to play at the airport
There are two ways for real Conservatives to handle this problem.

Faux conservatives will whine about CNN on 24/7 in airports and want congress to do something.
Sweet. I gotta get me one!
Several years ago my dad was in the hospital. I would come and visit every day. I spent a lot of time in the waiting room while he was undergoing treatment, sleeping, etc.
They had a boob-toob in the room and it was invariably turned to the commie news network. I asked for a different channel but staff declined. So I went to a Best Buy and bought a universal remote and then changed the channel myself. Eventually someone would notice and change it back. I would wait until there was no one in the room and flip the channel.
If they ever figured out who was the culprit they never confronted me!
CNN thugs not journalists could be without jobs if/when Trump cuts their funding from our worthless State Department.
Almost all of the corporate media are in financial trouble, except CNN!
Why is CNN, Certified Not News, not in potential financial trouble?
CNN apparently receives programming reimbursement from the U.S. State Department via The Bureau of International Information Programs; the same State Department program that pays Facebook for content. CNN is not as reliant on ad revenue because they get tens of millions from the U.S. State Department.
CNN rats know that if President Trump stops, this SOS funding, when he is president. That will create massive unemployment among CNN’s left wing thugs posing as journalists.
Another reason why the thugs at CNN hate President Trump 24/7.
Ask yourself why CNN doesn't broadcast any news about plane crashes (Except for Flight MH370, which wasn't an American Airline) on their programs ?
I can’t locate the email I sent to FNC. I have no name. I do remember them saying that they had no control because did not own the coaxial lines and paid rent to TWC.
Because nobody in an airport wants to hear about plane crashes?
And here I thought you were talking direct to Roger Ailes............What a let down!
In general, that is probably true. I really don't think it would bother most people as their curiosity would override their fear.
However, some would just go nuts.
I think that is why the AIRLINES don't want TV coverage of a crash displayed on TV's at the airports. Too many nuts.
Back to your question of money going both ways...
I think CNN offered to avoid broadcasting Airline crashes and Airports only allow CNN on TV’s in the airport.
A mutual (and monetarily profitable) agreement for both parties.
