CNN Replaces Anchors on Its Flagging Morning Show
John Roberts, Kiran Chetry To Succeed the Two O'Briens

CNN is replacing both of its morning show anchors with recent recruits from other networks, sources familiar with the shake-up confirmed last night.

Soledad O'Brien and Miles O'Brien are out at "American Morning," which has struggled recently in the ratings. The pair, who are not related, will make way for John Roberts, a former CBS anchor and correspondent, and Kiran Chetry, who recently jumped to CNN from Fox News.

4. I read that they were trailing the brain dead "imus" show in the ratings

That's a hell of an indictment for any show to be getting lower ratings than that POS. They deserve to be fired.

7. Why the hell is Imus still cluttering the airwaves??

I refuse to watch MSNBC in the AM because of that moron. CNN was the lesser of two evils, but man those two O'Briens were a major yawn.

Chetney brought up Bush being a cocaine user on Fox. She may have been pushed out for this?
