"Should have given that job to John Stossel (before he left for FOX Business) or Jake Tapper."

I thought Tapper did an admirable job, far better than Stephenopolous. But, I think John Stossel - especially if they let him be John Stossel - would have generated an audience that may have doubled Meet the Depressed. That show would have been ratings GOLD - which goes to show you it's not about ratings and money to these network execs, it's about advocating for their political ideology.

Christiane Amanpour's existing CNN show (prior to leaving CNN), was one of the least watched shows on CNN, which is the least watched cable network, and yet this is the person they tap for that seat. It's ridiculous.

They're expecting the money to come later through political payoffs and favored treatment.

This could also be a pretty big boon to a show like Fox News Sunday, too. I would have to surmise that their ratings could go up.
