CNN: The Situation Room - November 12, 2009

The close of the 6pm hour and the open of the new 7pm hour. Since Lou Dobbs just quit CNN, Wolf Blitzer is doing a fourth hour of the Situation Room. John King will start a new show at 7pm next year. An interim program called "CNN Tonight" with a rotating list of anchors should begin airing soon.

I also included Jeanne Moos' report as it referenced Dobbs as well.

The posting of this video is designed to facilitate criticism, commentary, scholarship, and research relating to the television broadcasting industry, and for purposes of historic preservation, consistent with the provisions set forth in Section 107 of Title 17, United States Code.

That's precisely why your viewership keeps sinking Jessica!! That's all you care about!! You and Wolf and some other hacks - your only interest is the back and forth bickering of both parties (hoping the Left wins every time, of course), and you don't care about the effects that all that endless gridlock has on the American people

Exactly! And so they now have John King doing an hour long show about politics, as if three hours of politics on ShitRoom isn't enough. I was hoping CNN would use this opportunity with Dobbs leaving to make a more drastic change, but they blew it. Just because they air the extremes of both sides doesn't make them any more balanced. All that means is that CNN gives us double propaganda. And enough of the giant video walls, please.

I'm not done with CNN as so many others say they are...I still like Larry's show, and I think Cooper and Brown do some interesting pieces, but I guess they're not interested in having a nightly news hour, unless the 3rd hr of the Sit Room is it - but how can it be? All Blitzer wants to do is talk politics - I abandoned him shortly after the '08 Presidential run began
