The latter was on Newsroom with Kyra on the 30th. <br />Thanks though Anon 8:45pm.<br /><br />-What has began to bug me more and more about CNN, is their love for the salacious. I would expect Piers to dwell in it, but to my surprise Wolf engages in it quite a bit too. All the little tawdry tidbits are discussed to nauseum. <br /><br />When CNN realizes that viewers want news, then people just may tune in and stay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6540471114822045290.post-51524925064262747182012-01-31T20:45:34.309-05:002012-01-31T20:45:34.309-05:00Anon 1:02pm, I think you have good ideas and certa...Anon 1:02pm, I think you have good ideas and certainly would like to see Isha anchor a show. I never gave much thought to the music in a show but seeing how well Up w/ Chris Hayes and NOW with Alex (msnbc) utilize music, it does help make the show more lively. CNN certainly needs to try something different than it is doing now. They've got world class reporters and I would rather hear from them than some paid political hack (aka pundit).<br /><br />Anon 1:10am, I think you may be confusing Dana Loesh with Dana Bash. Loesch is a pundit, Bash is a reporter. I don't think Loesch has been on CNN since her comments in support of marines peeing on dead bodies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6540471114822045290.post-78583218438950139212012-01-31T01:10:27.820-05:002012-01-31T01:10:27.820-05:00Dana was on one of the Newsrooms today, so she has...Dana was on one of the Newsrooms today, so she hasn't been taken competely out of the picture.<br /><br />At this point, I think anyone is better than Suzanne, who is a complete bore.

I did notice that she hasn't been a part of the last few election coverage programs on CNN. Unfortunately, no Dana doesn't necessarily mean no Obama-bashing by the other contributors (and anchors).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6540471114822045290.post-2078370965117721212012-01-30T13:02:16.831-05:002012-01-30T13:02:16.831-05:00I think CNN should give Isha Sesay the 7 PM hour.
...I think CNN should give Isha Sesay the 7 PM hour.<br />She is filling in today for Suzanne. It would be a<br />different type of show. You would have Isha but<br />hire others like Angela Sun to talk sports. Yes,<br />some women watch sports. Hire Max & Jason as<br />well. They once hosted Still Up on Current. A<br />fast paced news show with news and interesting<br />topics an news oriented program. Isha is good<br />and with an ensemble cast she could still be<br />on 360. The news & music as will be essential<br />to the show. These are a group of young diverse<br />journalists who bring their unique different <br />styles to the table. I not trying to be The View<br />are The Talk. Women are news consumers.<br />No pundits permitted.<br /><br />The intro would go a little something like this.<br />Today's opening song. Isha and the others <br />would next take us through what is coming <br />up on the show. Once that is all down there<br />will be a signature phrase for the show.<br /><br />America _____________ cause ________________.<br />Believe the phrase gets your attention. Roll<br />the show open with a different song playing.<br /><br />Politics can be done this way : have Queen's<br />Under Pressure playing as a graphic runs<br />for the topic. Big FL primary coming up so<br />we asked our Wolf Blitzer, John King & Candy<br />Crowley what does it all mean. As 1 of them<br />are saying the names have al of their pics <br />full screen with their last names. Black & <br />White photos for the effect. It runs about<br />90 seconds.<br /><br />Isha or someone else could say Florida is<br />the biggest prize so far in the GOP primary<br />season. So we asked our Wolf Blitzer, John<br />King and Candy Crowley to give us the <br />Breakdown ( you could use Tom Petty too )<br />As you mention their names have black &<br />white photos with their last names on the<br />pictures. Have them each give their take.<br />Short, sweet and too the point. Viewers<br />have just sat through over analysis . Give<br />them a break. They are seasoned reporters.<br />They should be able to sum things all up<br />in 90 seconds. What they say is weaved <br />together to tell a story and of course video<br />and stills and infographics are a must.<br /><br />Pick a final song for everyone to have a<br />closing news item. For the premiere it <br />can be a song like Someday by the <br />Supremes.<br /><br />I pitched this show here before. I am serious,<br />I don't want a job at CNN. The news means<br />something to me .<br /><br />I say Isha Sesay because she has the news<br />credibility. She is good at having that <br />conversation with a viewer.

IMHO it does<br />not look like anyone is really gaining that much.<br />Unfortunately for CNN they are now considered <br />to be the Tea Party, Anti-Obama ,bigoted network<br />more interested in spreading lies and ignorance.<br />CNN has to fix it's political image.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
