  1. When you'd rather hear Lou Dobbs in the 8PM hour, you know your program is in deep trouble.
    Campbell Brown was no good, Paula Zahn was no good, but this is better???
    Klein, sorry, you have to "eat" this one.

  2. Love Jon Stewart. The man spoke to truth
    to CNN on CNN. The suits need to hire him
    as a news consultant.CNN is not doing any
    actual reporting and is letting the ideology
    soundbites be used as facts, in reality we
    all know this is not true and CNN has to
    end this and go with analysts who have to
    use facts. It says a lot when the studio crew
    is laughing about what Jon Stewart is saying
    about CNN. Boy was he ever telling the truth
    because right after LKL 360 had the pundits
    right at the top of the show.360 also did
    editing with words that were suspect.
    Anderson Cooper showed video edited together
    of the words take our country back.. It was
    done completely out of context. You don't
    show clips like that without out showing the
    beginning and end of the full statement.
    Stewart busts FNC for doing this all of the time.
    Jimmy Kimmel can make it seem like
    people are saying anything with editing.
    It is about how it is used.

    Also this morning, no joke, on Bloomberg
    Elliot Spitzer might have a show on CNN
    but the Harvard Club does not want him.
    No matter how CNN will try to dress him
    up it won't work. Stewart was also right
    about Piers Morgan. You don't replace
    Larry King with a guy that most Americans
    don't even know. That is exactly why CNN
    is a burning building. Only ideologues are
    hired to do the news and they are running
    CNN.Spitzer is not even a journalist yet
    somehow he got a prime time gig on CNN.
    You look at the decisions CNN are making
    and you just shake your head. How many
    matches will they suits keep adding to
    the fire.If you don't put out the fire ,
    eventually the building will burn down,

  3. Larry King & CNN will likely get a boost From
    Jon Stewart and the Soledad O'brien special
    tonight. There is only 1 week left in the Oct
    ratings. Pretty much by Thanksgiving the
    2010 ratings are drawing to a close and it
    is on to 2011. The problem for CNN is they
    are much weaker heading into 2011. CNN
    waited too long to fire Jon Klein and now
    they are sticking with his plans. Can't they
    see he destroyed the network. Someone
    will have to answer why Parker Spitzer &
    Piers Morgan were given shows on CNN.
    Somebody should not have let it happen
    at all. Have they ever heard of do no harm.
    It is no doubt changes will be made and
    sooner rather than later.

  4. CNN is in really big trouble. Judging from
    the numbers for American Morning the
    past 2 days,it's safe to say people are
    turned off by what CNN is doing. CNN
    decided to go with misinformation and
    keep the facts away from viewers,bigotry,
    hate and anger. From Lou Dobbs to hiring
    birthers, morphing into FNC,hiring Rick
    Sanchez,etc. CNN dissed it's viewers and
    showed an arrogance that is baffling.CNN
    had zero room for error. CNN must fix
    the morning show and the 7 & 8 pm
    hours.CNN should never have abandoned
    the news. Can you ever take CNN seriously
    again ? That answer right now is no. It's
    like people are telling CNN they have had
    it.

  5. CNN could learn a lot from Bloomberg.
    Bloomberg is changing and going for
    younger viewers. They are doing sports,
    international news,Google searches,even
    on Friday the top 5 Billboard songs. We
    are talking about Bloomberg. If they can
    change why can't CNN. CNN really needs
    to lighten up in the mornings. When you
    are heading out the door, you want to be
    in a good mood. CNN does not communicate
    the way people talk and interact with each
    other. It is amazing that since CNN is
    going real heavy on politics and talking
    heads their numbers are tanking. Besides
    talking head journalism is boring and
    shines the lights on how lazy CNN is
    being and not even using it's resources
    or experimenting with new and interesting
    things. Bloomberg is modernizing and
    beefing up its news while CNN thinks
    it is still the 90's.

  6. CNN must realize that content is the universe.
    CNN is suppose to be providing viewers with
    news and vital information.CNN needs to decide
    like yesterday what to do. Right now they don't
    have a clue and it is playing out over the airwaves.
    CNN has to get out of talk/opinion. Turn the
    network over to you own journalists and hire
    people who are innovators in how to make the
    news interesting. Two people I really wish CNN
    would take a look at are David Neuman & Laura
    Ling. When Current TV originally launched they
    were leading a different breed and hoping to
    change journalism. Current ran into some
    money issues and had to change course.
    Being that CNN is owned by Time Warner
    that is not an issue. The look,graphics
    and creativity was what originally made
    Current fun to watch. There are even rumors
    that Current TV might eventually be for
    sale. The Vanguard model is a great model
    for CNN and hire as many Current people
    as you can. A lot of them are out of work.

  7. There are a couple of things on CNN that
    show the disconnect. The only people even
    talking abut Juan Williams is the media.We
    all know that if you are with a company and
    they find your words or behavior against
    company code you can be fired. What are
    the chances of any of us signing a 2 million
    dollar contract as a result. It has nothing to
    do with free speech. Besides if you are doing
    fact based news how can you be biased.CNN
    it is the opinion that makes you biased and
    factless. it has nothing to do with free speech
    no matter how FNC tries to portray it. Tell
    me what else is new with conservatives
    wanting to cut funding for NPR. Then
    there is Lindsay Lohan. My response ,
    so what. Old media might live in the
    ideological spectrum but ordinary people
    can't and that is why you can't relate
    to CNN. Good riddance.

  8. This probably will not be posted but Whoopi Goldberg has the nerve to criticize NPR for the the firing of Juan Williams!
    She walked off the set of the View when O'Reilly said, as Jon Stewart and Colbert would say, "Truth to Power!"
    Good for FOX NEWS for giving Williams and even bigger contract!

  9. Yes, maybe Fox News wouldn't be nixed so hard now that Jon Stewart has come to the forefront and said how he really feels about them.
    HE TAKES THEM SERIOUSLY...and so should everyone on this post.
