FLASH: JUDY WOODRUFF LEAVES CNN This message was just sent on CNN's internal messaging system: "To my colleagues and friends at CNN: I've decided to leave daily journalism after 30 years, 12 of them at this network. I've had challenging and exciting opportunities, been supported by an amazing and talented group of people, and made lifelong friends. I wish them the very best. I'm discussing several long-form projects in television. I'll also teach, do some writing and be an occasional consultant and contributor to CNN. To all of you at CNN who have been so wonderful to me, I can't begin to thank you adequately. But thank you. We will stay in touch and we'll always have memories of good journalism, good times and a few laughs together."
JRJ.........JUST RETIRE JUDY!!
Judy is sort of a mini-Dan Rather, and the network would get a big media pop for going with a sole female anchor format.
That was my favorite. About the only time in 5 yrs that I watched CNN. It was enough for another 5.
She can't take ALL the credit for dead last ratings. We have to give some credit to Bill Schneider for his totally liberal biased reports.
"I'll also teach, do some writing and be an occasional consultant and contributor to CNN."
Isn't that what people say when they get canned and
don't have another job to go to.
New job is the same as her old job; Useful Idiot & Fellow Traveler. NEVER missed her since before she was GONE!
"Watching her face scrunch up like she was sucking on lemons was a highlight of the 2004 election."
LOL!! She looks like a cadaver wearing a blond wig!! And if she smiled, her face would crack wide open!!
Election nights just won't be the same without Judy's grimaces of disapproval at Republican victories...
This is not news. Judy Woodruff converting to conservativism would be news.
I only wish Matthews was going down next.
Wow, I guess her contract expired.
Has anybody seen any numbers for CBS since Rather left?
Chrissy just fell below Olberman in ratings.....now thats bad, falling to a liberal ex-sports announcer.
Last night he ended with a replay of his Zell Miller fiasco....musta been a slow news day. (snerk)
Wants to spend more time with family?
Will contribute to CNN
Do specials maybe
All the lame reasons usually given but never pan out.
Buh, buh Judy.... W still President!!!
Maybe she can co-anchor the news on IMUS(h). They are looking for some fodder.
Missed this story. Can you point me to a thread?
We know that's a lie. Her husband is that newt hater with the white hair....resident liberal writer at the WSJ...AL HUNT.
Nobody would want to spend more time with him.
Who's going to do the mandatory whining and sobbing? Aaron Brown?
