Eliot Spitzer CNN Anchor Brings Low Ratings

Eliot Spitzer, CNN Anchor? Yes, and he brought low ratings to his first newscast. Eliot Spitzer is the former New York governor who had to resign after a massive prostitute ring scandal, and now he's on CNN's new news show, Parker/Spitzer.

The message they are sending is that it's not okay to diss Jews and call comedians bigots but it IS okay to be involved in a large scale scandal and be forced to resign from your post as a high profile politician.

Perhaps it's CNN's way of trying to be more like Fox News? At least that's what some people are saying. The train wreck that results from Rick Sanchez being fired just seems to get worse and worse.

MSNBC and Fox News are said to be "not interested" in Rick Sanchez. Who is? Click here to find out.

Rick Sanchez Fired From CNN? Come Back, Rick!

Rick Sanchez fired from CNN? Come back Rick! Or, at least that's what some people are saying. In a whirlwind of events that started with an unorthodox interview in which Sanchez called Jon Stewart a bigot and bashed the media industry, claiming it was "ran by Jews."

However, Sanchez has a strong fan base. He's controversial, and fit in quite well with CNN. He believes in illegal immigration - but only if the immigrants are Latino. He's outspoken, and one of Jon Stewart's regular targets.

Over 1,700 people have joined a Facebook page to bring Rick Sanchez back. Some people say they are even boycotting CNN until he's back in the game. Somehow, I don't think that these viewers will be tuning in to FOX.

They're more likely to be an MSNBC crowd.

Rick Sanchez Fired by CNN About Jon Stewart Comments

Rick Sanchez fired by CNN? After Jon Stewart Bigot comments, Sanchez was let go. Perhaps it wasn’t the anger he expressed towards one of America’s favorite political comedians, perhaps it’s the fact that he called out his network and said that it was ran by a bunch of Jews. That’s probably the kicker in this case.

Of course, Stewart will get the last laugh and he’s already taunted his nemesis. However, don’t be surprised if the former CNN newscaster heads out to Stewart’s show as a guest. I think he will have plenty of time on his hands.

The words were expressed during a Sirius Radio interview, and they lead to the ultimate dismissal of the former CNN correspondent. It’s an unfortunate thing for him, but he should know better than to express negative thoughts and racial slurs about other TV personalities and the entertainment industry in general.

This is only the latest in CNN firings. Lou Dobbs was let go several months back. Many thought he’d go to Fox, but so far that hasn’t happened. What about Rick Sanchez? After he was fired by CNN for Jon Stewart comments do you think he will head over to Fox? What are your thoughts on the situation?

ACORN Pimp Seduces CNN Reporter? Conservatives Diss James O'Keefe

The "ACORN pimp" seduces CNN reporter? James O'Keefe is the "pimp" in the undercover ACORN videos which showcased how funds were mishandled and how ACORN workers abused the law. He's a "new" kind of investigative reporter - one that wants to show the "true" face of the media and the liberal world.

Even if that means lying and deceiving.

O'Keefe planned a meeting with CNN investigative reporter, getting her to come out on a boat filled with adult novelties with the intent of embarrassing her.

She didn't meet O'Keefe the "ACORN Pimp" because she was tipped off minutes before the meet was set.

Any journalist in their right mind wouldn't stand for this type of behavior. The only one who may "appreciate" this as a "joke" would be, of course king of practical jokes Ashton Kutcher. However, even he may have qualms about acting in an unprofessional way towards an investigative reporter.

What are your thoughts on the ACORN Pimp trying to seduce/punk a CNN reportr?

Larry King Retiring, Leaving CNN Show

Larry King is leaving CNN. Larry King's retirement comes at a time where his personal life was under a great deal of scrutiny, after his eighth wife filed for divorce after King allegedly had an affair with her sister. The couple have since reconciled.

In addition, ratings of Larry King Live have dropped over 40% in the most recent year. This coupled with his age and tumultuous personal life place him in a situation where he feels it best to retire.

Larry King Live holds a record in the Guinness Book of World Records for the show that has been on the same station and at the same time slot for the longest period of time. The show has been running for some 25 years.

Larry King is 77, and isn't leaving the CNN network all together. Larry King will be featured in quarterly specials on the popular news station.

It's uncertain who will replace Larry King. One thing is for certain, no one will truly replace him. He's had a great run. One of the most memorable interviews I have ever seen on a news talk show was on Larry King Live. It was when Carrie Prejean went off on Larry, calling him "inappropriate."

Of course, there are likely far more memorable interviews from far more impressive people than Carrie Prejean - but that's the one that sticks in my mind the most.

Larry King will be missed, although his retirement and departure from Larry King Live will be understood by his fans.
