CNN’s viewership continues to tank:
So how do they respond? They're giving Anderson Cooper's daytime show a makeover including a name change.They're going to call it "Anderson Live" instead of "Anderson." No kidding? Wow, that should really turn things around! Maybe they should skip the drama and merge with Newsweek. -- CNN: Will the Last Viewer Please Turn Out the Lights? | Power Line

Your Say
Can't turn the lights out at the airport. It's like the circulation of USA Today, complimentary and unread.

Well, not quite. I did scan a USA Today while my car was being serviced the other day - the dealership had several copies in the customer lounge - but I haven't seen CNN since the last time (January) I was in an airport.
And Anderson Cooper...that name will forever be associated with the term "teabagger".

Anderson Live? That's sheer marketing genius! Paid big bucks to a media consultant for that, did you?
Do people actually watch CNN when they are not at the airport or the carwash?

I might think about watching it if it was called "Anderson Dead".
