    When will CNN push Klein out the door — or kick him out — or something. These numbers get more and more embarrassing by the day. Before you know it the only people watching will be those sitting in airports waiting for their flight to take off (or is that their ratings base now?)??? Maybe the airports will wake up and smell the coffee and give their travelers a much better choice.

    Grace has been consistently beating the over paid and over publicized CNN prime time line up in the demo and in the total viewers for quite some time now. I wrote a post about it on my blog back on November 19 when Grace’s live show began beating AC360 in the demo and in the total viewers on a regular basis. It has only gotten worse because lately even her repeat is beating Anderson pretty regularly!

    I wonder what would have to happen before Klein and the other losers in charge of CNN programming begin to admit that their prime time line up, especially their “golden boy,” is in serious trouble.

    Geesussah! It matters not the subject at hand, Grace is and has continued to be thoroughly obnoxious.
    Vastly over-fed ego. Classless, uncultured, undignified, insulting-to-all. Hard to stomach. A hard-cell group of “Nancy and the Twins” admirers. Ugh. But does Merkah deserve better??
