Maybe he should be up late at night, wide awake...

Perhaps the higher-ups at CNN are finally getting tired of the Sneer.

But it's a lesson to Brown and anybody else at "the top". If you can't get off the golf course to cover a story, you shouldn't be surprised if future stories get assigned elsewhere.

But being a liberal I'm sure that's a revelation that shocks and infuriates the heck out of the Sneer.

Larry King has excellent ratings, for reasons I really don't understand. He looks to me as if he died several years ago.

The rest of them are going downhill.

----He anchored much of the terrorist attack coverage that day and those that followed, impressing many viewers with his soft-spoken, cerebral style.----

"Rush Limbaugh has been more than a bit unkind to me more than once. He’s also been unkind to Al Franken, who in turn has been unkind to him. He’s taken shots at Michael Wolff, New York magazine’s media critic and Michael is hardly the retiring sort. So, here we all are, Al, Michael, and me, and the subject is Rush – made worse, no doubt, by the permanent smirk that seems to be attached to my face."

– CNN’s Aaron Brown on the October 10 NewsNight after Limbaugh announced he was seeking treatment for an addiction to prescription pain medicine

"I like his program," legendary CBS anchorman Walter Cronkite

Well, if that lying scumbag Cronkite likes him, then that seals it. Buh-bye, Aaron.

[Texas Eagle]

The Boston Globe's Mark Jurkowitz, wrote: "He is just too studied, too enigmatic and, frankly, too weird to be anchor material."

Weirder than Dan Rather?

[hispanarepublicana]

Aaron who?

[InvisibleChurch]

Brown is a "very important part of CNN's election team"

sounds like the kind of 'endorsement' a coach or manager gets when the owner says "he's our man, he'll be with us as long as he wants to be"

Anchor Aaron Brown's Star Appears to Fade

I can't believe I'm seeing "Aaron Brown" and "Star" in the same sentence.

Watching him deliver the news is like going into a coma.

[Ann Archy]

Brown is an arrogant BORE.....with a hideous voice.

[Intolerant in NJ]

Virtually all the network's big names were there. Except Aaron Brown, whose star appears to be fading in the CNN firmament...Tucker Carlson today on C-Span spoke of his experience at CNN when he wanted a CNN mug and called the woman who was in charge of giving them out - she told him his budget didn't provide for one, and no amount of cajoling could convince her to spring for one for him. Within a matter of days he learned that he was being fired from the network, and later found out that the mug woman already knew about the firing by the time he was dealing with her - maybe whoever made arrangements for this dinner has gotten the word on Brown.....

This is the New York Times CNN Schadenfreude Ping List. Freepmail me to be added or dropped.

[McGavin999]

Who?

[spyone]

Well, I don't care what anybody on this thread says. I like him alot. He is fair, he IS intellectual...so what...asks great questions and doesn't care how long he takes to ask them. Way better than the rest of the hollywood plasticoids.

[fso301]

Aaron Brown talks like a womens hair dresser.

[Spruce]

Aaron Brown is creepy.

[Devil_Anse]

"Brown's Newsnight has many devoted fans. It's a newscast that rarely traffics in trash..."

Last night, by chance, I happened upon Aaron's cerebral news show while they were discussing the search for perpetual youth, and they focused in on some 59-yr-old woman and talked about her botox treatments...

Yeah, it's real high-level stuff. 'Cause Aaron is such a smart guy.... bwwwwwAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

[Republican Red]

For what it's worth, Aaron Brown is the only media guy that ever replied back to an email I had sent.

During the whole Enron/Worldcom crisis I sent off an email to Brown livid at an interview I had seen him do with Terry McAullife in which he failed to even bring up the 8 million Mcaulife made with Global Crossing.

About 10 minutes after I had sent the email he sent a reply to me about McAulife calling him a "rascal".

I was not impressed what he wrote but that he took the time to reply.

Still won't watch him on CNN though.
