Members DRW50 Posted September 7, 2010 Members Share Posted September 7, 2010 What a terrible title. It sounds either crude or like some type of confusing Monopoly property. Kathleen Parker tends to write insulting things like this and Spitzer is apparently being rewarded for scandal. CNN deserves to slide further down the ratings toilet.

Members Sylph Posted September 7, 2010 Author Members Share Posted September 7, 2010 As is evident from Spitzer's "joke" both have enormous egos, couldn't agree on any either title so their names had to be the title. It really deserves to be in the ratings toilet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Adam Posted October 5, 2010 Members Share Posted October 5, 2010 Once Larry King signs off in December, CNN will lose anything that defines them as a cable news network, and Larry has been dwindling for years anyway. Whether you agree or disagree with the biased slant they provide.... FOX News is always in the spotlight and FOX News is what everyone is talking about. CNN continues to try and reinvent the wheel and they continue to fail. This Spitzer/Parker thing (and I echo the snetiments regarding the pretentious title) seems like a poor man's Crossfire. I didn't see the first show, but based off of their interview with Larry King.... they really have no flare of chemistry with one another and they seemed to be giving off awkward vibes. I understand the point of the show is different view points, but there has to be some logical fit and there doesn't seem to be one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted October 5, 2010 Members Share Posted October 5, 2010 I know it is an unpopular idea, but CNN should actually do the news. If you turn on CNN International you are greeted by programs called "world report", "world business", and "world sport". I don't see what is wrong with titles like that or programs designed to give you the news, weather and sports without a lot of screaming. They also carry Larry King, Sanjay Gupta and whatever else for discussion and package whatever. I realize FOX has a bigger audience, but does that mean CNN should go after the same brain addled audience? Is there anywhere in journalism left that the people feel a responsibility to actually report and investigate the news? The fact that it is Anderson Cooper showing me the 360 doesn't make the 360 more interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted October 5, 2010 Members Share Posted October 5, 2010 THIS! And CNN would be in the perfect position to reboot as THE place for just 24/7 news, since HLN sold out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
