Revamping the Paula Zahn primetime hour on CNN has not helped the show in the least, according to preliminary ratings figures. Tuesday night -- the second night of Zahn's new show -- attracted just 427,000 households versus an average of 512,000 last month. By comparison, Bill O'Reilly on Fox News Channel drew 1,200,000 viewers.

Paula should have just stayed on the morning show playing her 'cello.

[tkathy]

CNN has lost credibility over the dishonest war coverage, and isn't going to get viewers back no matter what they do.

Shouldn't have pulled the "...and a little sexy!" ad.

I hear that toilet flushing now.

[Loyal Buckeye]

She is the one who said that there just might be political fallout after the planes hit the Towers, wasn't she? Her first thought was to implicitly slam GWB and not try to understand the importance of the event.

I see good ol Rupert Murdoch sitting back in his chair reading the ratings like these sticking a cigar in his mouth and saying, just like Hannibal on A-Team, "I love it when a plan comes together......"

That list is a bit misleading. Brit Hume is on at 6 PM Eastern, while many folks are still on their way home.

Every other program on the list is on at 7 PM Eastern or later.

If Brit was on at 7, he'd move way up on the list.
