‘Crossfire’ Cancelled – Again – As CNN Pulls Programs And Slashes Staff
Deadline.com ^ | Oct 15, 2014 | Lisa de Moraes

The first time it went out with a bang — this time it went out with a whimper; CNN’s Crossfire is no more. Again. The show had been missing in action for weeks and already some of its co-hosts — Stephanie Cutter, Newt Gingrich, S.E. Cupp and Van Jones — have been popping up as contributors around the network’s landscape. Some staff have been moved to other programs, and the remainder have been encouraged to apply for open positions within the bureau, source say — surprising, given that CNN is in the process of slashing about 300 positions.

I doubt if either of the regular viewers will notice.

I think CUPP is done. She used to be on FOX and left for CNN, like Alisyn Camerota. They’re both toast.

Given CNN’s ratings, it might be more economical just air old Point-Counterpoint segments from 60 Minutes.

Or the Akroyd-Curtain parodies...

I agree. Cupp should not have left Fox. Not a good decision to go to CNN.

Wow. You must have really been bored back then.

It’s not clear to me how any sentient person could plan their day around any TV show.

I'm sure she'll land on her feet. Especially with legs like those.
