Earlier this month, news broke that CNN was looking to relaunch Crossfire, the famous debate show that pitted two pundits -- one liberal, one conservative -- against one another on the political issues of the day.
Sources now tell POLITICO that the network is in discussions with former Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich and former Obama deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter about roles on the show.
"They are talking to Cutter and to Gingrich," a source familiar with the discussions said. "[Cutter] is in discussions; Newt is in discussions too," another source confirmed.

Even FoxNews would benefit. Personally I can't stand that idiot on at 8 pm EST, and Hannity and Greta just don't cut it.
If Next stands on his principles would be great show
Ugh, sounds terrible.
Newt will ROCK!
Yep....anything that gets Newt’s brain on TV is OK with me.
Just wish it was on a channel people watched.
I’ve pretty much quit the television but I will tune in if Newt is going to have a show.
If Newt is true to his track record,
we’ll hear that he’s dumped Callista
and is going to marry Stephanie.
Newt can debate himself he has been on both sides of most issues
I don’t personally see any benefit of wasting an hour watching someone who I believe spent their entire time in the Obama administration lying their ass off.
PASS
This would not be a fair show. Not even close. Would be worse that Hannity vs moron. Newt would end up in prison for the repeated evisceration of Stephanie Cutter.
Yawn.
Who would want to have their ass handed to them every week by Newt?
So which side will Newt be arguing for?
He has none.
I’ve got a great Echo and the Bunnymen song to name the show after.
Linda Grahmnesty could be the first guest and Newt could tell her, “Linda, you stupid slut.”
Might be interesting for a while, but may end up going the way of Hannity and Colmes. I found that I could not stand to listen to Colmes, and I’m sure many libs could not stomach Hannity. I do know this: the second I see Cutter’s face on the TV, I change the channel. Can’t stand her duplicitous, deceitful rhetoric.
Spare us the cutter?? Echo song?
