Ch-ch-ch-changes ... to the CNN schedule

Rick Sanchez tweeted this morning that starting in January he will now have two hours M-F, from 3-5pmET. Not to be outdone by that modern technology, Wolf Blitzer tweeted that TheSitRoom will air from 5-7pmET, giving them a tighter focus. "Less becomes more."

BTW, Ali Velshi is filling in for Rick's 3pm shift today, and will be interviewing Peter Bergen. (Gotta love the CNN TweetVerse!)

  1. You have got to be kidding me. MSNBC
    just won. Sanchez is in free fall on Twiiter.
    He is in the 700's.

  2. 2010 : RIP CNN. Jim Walton had better stop
    Klein before it is too late. People are betting
    right now on how soon Jon Klein will be fired
    for the move.FNC & MSNBC are still laughing.

  3. Everyone is complaining about Rick Sanchez, and what does CNN do for the New Year?
    Why they promote him. And now folks, he actually has not one, but two hours for you all to dislike him....and then you ask why are they fourth?
    With that kind of reasoning, let's see how many MORE hours we get of Campbell?

  4. I can say I certainly won't be watching.
    Maybe the suits at CNN have not been
    watching what he does on the air. The
    title of the show says it all : lame. Do
    you think the network brass know that
    anyone who uses Twitter can do this.
    We are protesting by getting Jack Gray
    to 2 million. Rick Sanchez is not on
    anyone's radar. At least with Blitzer on
    at 4 you have someone you trust with
    breaking news. Now it is a serious
    credibility issue.

  5. Anon 10:15 this defies logic and makes no
    sense. Can Ted Turner come back now. This
    is a disaster and will completely ruin CNN.
    Sanchez is not a good journalist at all,the
    facts don't matter. Game over.CNN must
    want to be 5th.It just seems like such a lack
    of respect for your viewers.CNN has some
    really good young anchors that deserve a
    shot not some 50-something guy going
    follow me on Twitter.
