It looks like one of CNN's most liked stars won't fit at the burgeoning home of poop-cruise story torture and soft morning news — this is new president Jeff Zucker's CNN, and Soledad O'Brien is not it.
Jeff Zucker isn't going to be starting as the boss at CNN until after the new year, but we can still ask who he's firing, what the new lineup will look like, and today's big TV-news news: Is he going to hire America's favorite jilted anchor?
NBC is already lining up replacements for Matt Lauer, Soledad O'Brien's new morning show may launch without a title, and more Kate Middleton pregnancy talk.
Further cancellations by singer Adele spark throat cancer fears, Hillary Swank is cleaning house after her appearance at the Chechen president's birthday, and CNN is shaking up its morning lineup.
Plus: Ashleigh Banfield may be headed to CNN's 'American Morning'
