Zucker is dismissing charges that his network has gone low brow with its focus on the George Zimmerman murder trial in Florida. He called the criticism “bunk” on Friday, July 12. Zucker, who is marking his sixth month at the helm of the cable news network and its affiliates, said he believed his network struck the right balance in its coverage last week between the Florida neighborhood watch volunteer on trial for murder and the coup in Egypt.
