If they want ratings, they should go with Beetlejuice.

At the rate they are sinking, the last thing the MSM needs is more anchors.

Why? They haven't produced any that I would watch.

If one of them were to hire Brit Hume away from Fox, AND make him the chief of their news division, I'd bet the ratings would more than double the other two networks.

Many words signifying nothing. Who cares who becomes the next lamestream anchors? The blogs have shredded the news media's credibility to shreds and the so called "reporters" are digging their own graves day by day.

I haven't watched network news in years and know very few who do.

I think CBS or ABC could demonstrate just how unbiased they are by chosing Howard Dean....

Has anyone noticed that they're missing anchors? Perhaps they should save themselves the celebrity paychecks.

Anchors are what you sink to keep you from drifting away...............

LOL! That's the line of the day, and so true.

Let's see - they've gone without anchors for months and the world hasn't ended. Maybe the anchor paradigm is dead?
