So what happened? Let's see: There's no presidential election to ramp up ratings; there's heavy competition from centrist CNN's noisier rivals (see: Fox News, the No. 1 cable news channel);


CNN is centrist?? in what alternative universe?!?!?!

Heh!... not likely, but that would increase his ratings significantly! I would guess that the network would override such nonsense though...ha...

It’s hard to read the news when you are teabagging.

I don’t understand how his ratings could go down. They were always incredibly low. Where to they have to go?

Go to hell, Anderson. Tea-bagging on your own time is fine. That’s called freedom. But don’t denigrate the Americans who actually have the integrity to make a public stand for limited government. You suck in more ways than one.

RedEye is getting more viewers at 3am than Cooper gets at 10pm.
