Struggling CNN cancels ‘John King USA’ over declining prime-time ratings

• Who is John King and what is a CNN?

• CNN has lost all credibility, along with MSNBC. My guess is they will never recover it. Cannot wait until their plugs are pulled, and we can begin singing the ol' Dandy Don Merridth tune "Turn out the lights...th party's over."

• I'm guessing "Special Report" stomps "John King USA", but he was losing to Al Sharpton as well. Are we almost at the point at which CNN will give a conservative a show for some ratings at night? I guess Hell hasn't frozen over yet.

  • CNN used to have Lou Dobbs and HLN used to have Glenn Beck. Here's the kicker, neither one of them were cancelled. They left of their own accord. To give MSLSD credit (insert joke here) at least they have Joe Scarbrough (sp?). It would be nice to see another conservative face outside of Fox News, but hey, it's CNN's network and their right to send it down the crapper if they choose the same path they're on.

    • I'm sure Obama would come through with some "stimulus" money for them if they were to get into serious financial difficulty. MSNBC too.

• Oh, now I remember John King...

• More room for those snuggie commercials, and all those other fascinating products they sell at QVC...

• Who's John King?

  • He's the guy I just watched get his ass HANDED TO HIM by Newt Gingrich on the video above. It felt good to see a liberal puke being shut up by a crowd cheering for his enemy.

• I suppose it would be pointless to say that I've never even heard of him.

  • Oh, you might have heard of him, you just might not remember.

    This jackass:

    And King said it was his decision to ask the question.

    Double jackass.

    I only knew the name John King because Rush played the audio of King being giant jackhole. Otherwise, I wouldn't have heard of him.

    • Then I blame CO2Insanity for not telling us that it was this asshole! ;-)
      Thanks for the refresher.

• Dropping like flies in the Newsroom in Atlanta. Irreverent, thy name be CNN

• "CNN" stands for Cancelled News Network

  • Who is John King?

    • If someone could answer that question, he wouldn't have been cancelled. :)
