CNN has canceled its 6PM political news program John King USA. It will be replaced at the end of June by Wolf Blitzer's Situation Room, which will expand from two to three hours and will now air from 4 to 7PM.
King will remain with CNN,serving as the network's top campaign consultant for the presidential election. For more details, read Brian Selter's article in the New York Times media decoder blog.
another lib bites the dust
Honestly? King will like his new job better, hes now covering the Election
Now if they (CNN) could only cancel the other 23 hours of programing and start from scratch they might, might be on to something!
Well he tries to pretend he’s not a lib…good-bye to one King now,hopefully another in November!
Seriously, can we leave politics out of it on here?
What?!? CNN resisting the temptation of moving another of its “ratings-magnets”, Soledad O’Brien, to John King’s spot?
I agree with KC. I dislike most of CNN & esbecially that twit Wolf Blitzer . Apple, I don’t like the eyebrow raising , smirking , Soledad either. I watched her huff & puff on Critical Race Theory & I loved this smackdown . Like I said , it was like whack a mole . Everytime she came up,Sununu whacked her again.
John Sununu destroys her and network for using Obama talking points

Now Wolf gets to compete with The Five & Special Report. I doubt their worried. Now Tingles & Rev Al might need to worry.
I think they ought to get rid of everyone including the people that run the network. Start all over with maybe a fair and balance network, That the American people deserve.
AC needs to go too.
17 viewers are crying tonight.
JOHN KING Loses his show !
This isn’t news….News should be devoted to that which
is important and of interest to the public at large.
Anything involving CNN really isn’t newsworthy unless
they announce a plan to introduce a new format free of
left wing bias.
Here’s a thought…how about broadcasting “NEWS” for a
change !
Yeah, Debsafan, and get rid of everyone at Fox News also. There isn’t anything “fair and balanced” about that network.
John King is not so bad…..he’s better than many others….he wasn’t on very long so he wasn’t given much of a chance.Too bad.
Nancy Grace beat AC—they have to be worried when that happens. Still wondering why Erin Burnett was not cancelled instead of King.
One down, the rest of the network to go.
Is Erin Burnett next?
@Incognito: You make absolutely no sense at all. FNC leads CNN in all dayparts and in the 25-54 demo. You’re saying because the Yugo was a failure, cancel the Honda Accord as well, right? (schrugs)
@marvin and @letmethink,
Let’s suppose I’m a middle-aged, balding, pudgy white male who happens to be a CNN exec with the power to cancel shows. I must choose between Burnett and King – both have bad ratings. Burnett is young, attractive and flirts with me incessantly because she knows I control her fate. She’ll do ANYTHING to stay on TV, short of improving her journalism skills. The other, King, is a fellow middle-aged male who blames me for ruining the network that he has loyally served for years. He can’t do what she does for me. Hmmmmmm. I think I’ll keep the dimwitted girl cuz she’s *really* nice.
Really its a no-brainer. That’s CNN.
I didn’t like John King’s show anyway, he’s a Republicant and his political bias showed during his show.
