CNN Headline Prime Adds New Show
As Variety reports that CNN's Headline News has signed conservative radio host Glenn Beck for an hourlong talkshow in hopes of building on the ratings momentum generated by a revamped primetime lineup anchored by "Nancy Grace." Hopefully he won't be a failure. I am really liking Headline PRIME. Nancy is a very great full-hour of fun! I always love her facial expressions. This guy will probably be a Bill Oreilly wannabe.
Updated: 11:04am HERE's the press release from Glenn Beck.
"Hosted from Headline News’ New York studios, the program will be an unconventional look at the news of the day featuring Beck’s unique and often amusing perspective. With topics ranging from top stories to world events and politics to life’s ordinary hassles and pop culture, the show will look at “water cooler issues” that are on people’s minds. The one-hour program will include guests and produced packages.
“When we revamped Headline News a year ago, we said we were eager to launch different types of programming, and this new show is the next step in that evolution,” Jautz said. “Glenn is an incredibly entertaining personality and we’re excited to embark on this collaboration. He will be a great addition to our Headline Prime line-up.
“Having tired of the predictable left-versus-right debates in cable news, I am eager to offer a different take for Headline News viewers,” Beck said. “I hope that people will come away from our show not only informed, but also entertained, in a way they’re not used to seeing on cable news.”"
