CNN Will Cancel 'Crossfire' and Cut Ties to Tucker Carlson

Mr. Klein specifically cited the criticism that the comedian Jon Stewart leveled at "Crossfire" when he was a guest on the program during the presidential campaign. Mr. Stewart said that ranting partisan political shows on cable were "hurting America."

Mr. Klein said last night, "I agree wholeheartedly with Jon Stewart's overall premise." He said he believed that especially after the terror attacks on 9/11, viewers are interested in information, not opinion.

Once again, Jon Stewart was ahead of the media on what garbage shows like Crossfire are. Hopefully CNN will replace it with something that doesn't treat political dialogue like professional wrestling.
