Stephanopoulos joins Good Morning America, early morning audience gives collective yawn

Wake me up when Good Morning America gets interesting

Adding Clinton crony George Stephanopoulos to the anchor desk at ABC’s Good Morning America did nothing for the show’s ratings. Nothing good, that is.

Breitbart reports:

Preliminary numbers from Nielsen Co. show that his first day on “Good Morning America” on Monday had questionable impact on the audience size. NBC’s “Today” beat “Good Morning America” by 1.3 million viewers, widening its advantage from last week’s average margin of 1.1 million viewers.

Nielsen says Monday’s audience for “Today” was 5.9 million viewers, while “GMA” had 4.6 million viewers.

Earlier this month, “Today” marked 14 years of winning each week in the ratings.

Stephanopoulos, taking over from Diane Sawyer at the “GMA” anchor desk, is partnered with Robin Roberts.

  • So much for being true "journalists" and not having a bias. They had Cuomo, the former NY governor's kid, now they've got a Clinton crony. How about putting someone on there with ties to conservatives?
