CNN’s most popular hosts have lost nearly half their audience over the last year in precipitous falls that have affected the entire network.
In February, the network came in last place among the cable news nets, trailing not only Fox News and MSNBC, but also behind HLN (formerly Headline News) and CNBC, reports The New York Times.
The first quarter of 2010 was Larry King’s worst quarter ever, with his audience down 43%, to 771,000 viewers, for the quarter and down 52% for the month of March. In the same quarter in 2009, Larry King’s show had 1.34 million viewers.

To me, my lady. I can’t say what effect he has on others. I think you have a point about having a constructive effect on lefties, which is fine, they need it.
“Problem is, the more the msm loses, the farther left goes fox to pick up their viewers.”
Ain’t that the truth!
I don't really think it is that bad. They didn't really lose her, she's just been out of town for a few weeks visiting her aunt Madge. She's coming back after Madge's bunions heal.
For the full hour—Tina Louise.
