Moving comments from duplicate thread.

12:04:09 ET: CNN's second-highest rated host Greta van Susteren is jumping to rival FOX NEWS for nearly $1 million a year, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

CNN had countered the FOX offer with more money -- close to $1.4 million a year -- but she rejected, say op sources.

CNN fumbled during negotiations, say insiders, all but handing FOX the PR coup. Top AOLTIMEWARNER suits failed to sign Greta to a long term deal early on, opening up the option to jump. The move is seen as a personal blow to new CNN head Walter Isaacson.

The multiyear deal is expected to be signed within the hour, according to sources around the legal star.

FOX NEWS President Roger Ailes has given Greta the 10 pm slot, and has assured heavy ad promotion.

CNN executives are furious with Greta's dramatic turn. "She really showed her true colors, she has no loyality to the network that made her," said one top executive in New York.

CNN first hired van Susteren as a legal analyst 10 years ago... MORE


Hahahaha...

Soon Fox will be CNN.

Soon Fox will be CNN.

Maybe it should be worded:

Soon more conservative Fox will replace the extremely liberal CNN as the most popular news and information network...

I can't believe it. Why would they want her? Does she have a following? She began on CNN as an OJ booster. Since then folks around her have called her Greta van Satan. Not loved here.

..."Does she have a following? She began on CNN as an OJ booster. Since then folks around her have called her Greta van Satan. Not loved here"....

This broad is a liberal, is a liberal, is a liberal. Attempting to understand the liberal mindset can be confusing....I can't imagine a true liberal leaving the Indoctrination Manual's admonition to stay away from those lying 'conversative' media freaks....and FOX is defined as Conservative as is the Washington Times, etc.

Why would liberals leave the safety of a liberal BS network to follow a 'traitor' (in their eyes) to a 'conservative' station? Don't you feel the liberals would be feeling they had been betrayed and therefore would be looking for anything and everything they had 'learned/gleaned' from her to eradicate it from their Handbooks or Playbooks.
