I remember the good old days when the only game in town, if you were a news junkie, was CNN….I watched the 1st Gulf War from first bomb to last.

I recent years CNN has fallen on hard times—-since the early days….when it was a novel idea to have a 24 hour news network….and now everybody has a 24 hour network giving all the news that would make a sane person sick.  A couple of years ago CNN decided it would be a good idea to make Anderson Cooper the face of the network….and the network ratings continue to plummet like a lead balloon.  The idea of having one person to represent the whole enchilada has proven to be not such a good idea.

This moronic act has given MSNBC an idea…….

(Newser) – Ronan Farrow, definite son of Mia Farrow and alleged son of Woody Allen, has already gained a degree of fame thanks to his mom’s admission that he just might actually be Frank Sinatra’s love child. But soon the 25-year-old could be a household name: Page Six reports that he’s about to close a deal with MSNBC. While he won’t have his own show right away, the network plans to have him “work across the whole lineup” and “build his TV news credentials,” a source says. The ultimate plan? He’ll be the “face of the network,” as Anderson Cooper is for CNN.

I do not understand why they would want to do this……plus bring in some unknown entity to make the case……I mean they already have a bevvy of on-air news guys to do this….there is Ari Melber, Steve Kornecki, Chris Hayes among others……let’s not forget the lengendary host Tim Russert’s son, Luke……..

And why a dude to be the face of the network……what is wrong with a women…they have access to some great female on-air personalities…..Karen Finney, Abby Huntsman, Krystal Ball and there are others…….

If you gonna bet on one person as the face of the network…..why not make it a female afdter all they are more than capable of doing the job and in most cases more qualified.

I think this is a stupid move….the network has a good record and changing and becoming a copycat will not be any more rating getting than showing Pussy Riot videos.
